"I understand the pressure not to openly come out as gay but honestly the pressure of not been myself is far greater than the pressure my fans would unleash on me,it would finally die out and they would all love me for me" - Drake
Okay, I don't think all Hip Hop artists are gay. I personally think it's pretty hot! Why not? Drake, coming out of the closet, ain't much of a surprise, truth be told. Drake fawns over his 'Man Fans" from NBA stars to fellow hip hop artists, with deep admiration.
I came across this juicy video:
Lil Wayne & Gay Hip Hop Industry Exposed!
So, the video has Christian themes and strong opinions from members of the hip hop community. It's an exposé, if you will, to 'out' these hip artists as being 'secretly' gay and/or part of a secret society. Something off of Stanley Kubrick's Eyes Wide Shut! The commentary is hilarious and the music makes it seem like something terrible is happening. But the people who put this together, aren't laughing.

What do you think would happen if all of the secretly gay hip-hop artists came out? Will they lose a their fan base? Will they gain a new LGBT Hip Hop movement? Wanna know what I think?? Well, as long as they keep pumping out the jams, I wouldn't give two shits if they we're into doing a human centipede of straight up salad tossing thugs. That is their choice. Right?
All jokes aside
Apparently, there are a good number of hip hop artists that are in some pretty sketchy territory. Whether or not this is true or not, this could be something to consider questioning. It's all fun and games until someone threatens you with an ultimatum. Where contracts are signed with blackmail and blood. How many Hip-Hop artists do you think are in this situation? How far must one go to make it to the top? Is it all for Art or Money?
Thoughts? Let me know!
