Also MTV doesn't bleep it out in songs so it must be ok!

Using racial slurs in general is inappropriate, especially in a video that's being directed to a Graalian audience. I can't really tell if he's saying "yeah ******" to just everyone listening to the song or is directing it to Era players - a server that happens to have a lot of black players (or players that pretend to be black). Either way it's inappropriate, especially if it's the latter case.
Songs on MTV attract a particular audience that are okay with hearing that kind of language; language that people typically don't use in public for a reason...
As the Manager of a server he's putting himself in a bad light by releasing profane songs at an entire server's population and two globals in particular apparently aren't very happy with the way he's handling this.
