Kanye West is probably gay. Lil' Wayne is gay. Chingy is gay. Birdman is gay. Andre 3000 has to be gay.
Method Man was the lead in "How High" right? If so, he certainly meets the criteria, although not as OBVIOUS as Ice Cube. Is Method Man married as well?
it would help explain the emphasis on clothing and that whole, "Real men where pink" that came out. I thought it was because most rappers were raised by single mothers.
Wouldn't be a stretch for me to believe The Game likes the boys. Former male stripper who once went on Change of Heart....and got dumped. Plus he had that butterfly tat on on his lower back (okay it was his face). And what about when he gushed on that radio show claiming he fingered Vida Guerra at a party. Please. http://youtube.com/watch?v=sAXPN3NmJRg
Oh my goodness, there might be gunfire over all of this...Eze died of Aids, but the story line wasn't that he was gay. Hmm..the record exec was pretty old school, maybe KRS-1?
this kind of dovetails with this topic, since the hip hop and rap community is often associated with gangs (rightly or wrongly); i have a friend who is in federal law enforcement. he did some anti-gang work on a task force with L.A.P.D. a few years ago. this guy has told me for years that in addition to this being an issue in the rap and hip-hop culture, it is also a HUGE part of the gang culture. according to him, they found that younger gang members are often forced into sex acts with higher ranking gang members, both in and out of prison, and then the threat of being revealed is used to ensure loyalty. also according to this guy, the higher up the chain of command a gang member got, the more likely he was into man-to-man love.
Well that probably explains it...it could all stem from prison and then brought out of prison. But this has more to do with non-consensual man love than a gay subculture which I am very surprised that it actually exists.
wouldnt doubt it. Ne-Yo is pretty obvious. Chris Brown seems fruity too but maybe hes just young and a tool. Game wouldnt really suprised me seeing as hes a headcase anyways. To that guy who listed a few earlier: Kanye: Fruity, but not in a directly homo sense. He was engaged for a long time. Wayne: Sorry alen but he did open mouth kiss Baby. Meth: I really dont get where that idea came from. Hes married with kids and is all about bein at home with his family. Andre 3000: Real out there compared to most people. I kno he knocked up erykah badu. I think hes out there but not gay. I think we all know there will never be any successful, openly gay rappers. Hell, aside from Freddy Mercury of Queen, I dont really know of anyone whos made good music. (good music as in something Id listen to)
Dunno if you are into metal.. but Rob Halford is openly gay. Michael Stipe is openly gay if you are into REM, I mean then there's elton who is quite gay. Scissor Sisters, Iggy Pop is bisexual (which is what a lot of the people that incur on what is describe in the article would be)... I always thought Scott Weiland was probably gay.
Having a family really doesnt prove anything one way or the other. I do find it a bit amusing, and fascinating, however that perhaps the most homophobic demographic has a homosexual subculture. Given how wide spread homophobia is in this circle, it's no wonder they'd go to such lengths to keep it quiet.
well it would be way more surprising if like Dancehall stars where declaring themselves gay... now that would be quite an amazing feat.
Yea I know about all those people but im not really into any of their music. I like STP but Weiland is so messed up he prob doesnt know what he is.
As for the Weezy comment, I have thought that Weezy might be homo too. He is the only rapper who says " no homo, I want to lick his lollipop" or something along those lines in his latest song Lollipop. He did kiss Baby and has made a few songs about him such as My Daddy. I'm not sure if that song has a gay reference to it because I have not fully listened to it yet but I have heard some of his verses from it. He is my favorite rapper but I have questioned his sexuality before. It has no affect on me being a fan of his music but it wouldn't be a surprise to me.
they are still good music though. I don't think anyone can deny Bowie or townsend makes great music, even if it doesnt tickle your fancy.
I wouldnt deny that at all. I actually think Elton John has some great music too. But will you hear me bumping it in my Impala or listening to it while I lift or something? Na. Just not my kind of music but I respect its quality.
I think it is different from that. I think it has more to do with a culture of domination. In this case taking penetration as the ultimate way to exert dominion over another person. In Macho mexican world there are people who have sex with other men that do not consider themselves gay, because they are never the ones being penetrated, they are always the ones that do that, and therefore they remain straight. They exerted domination over another human being, therefore not being sissys therefore not being gay. Me thinks it probably has something to do with that.
Pete says he's straight. He also said he had sex with men a bit in the 60's but hey, that was the 60s.
