Lil B to Name Album I’m Gay
Rapper Lil B, who is straight, said he planned to make an album called I'm Gay in order to make a point about tolerance.

Rapper Lil B, who is straight, announced he would call his next album I’m Gay in order to show to show people that “words don’t mean s**t.”

Calling his move the “most controversial thing in hip-hop,” the rapper made the announcement from the stage Saturday at the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival, according to Ace Showbiz.

2. I remember an LA band in the early 90s Pushin' Up Daisies - I am Black, Jew, Gay.
The band was extremely fierce... thrash-punk with a stong musicality.... none were black, jewish or gay.

Great band. And it was a band with guts.

3. Being Almos ta Senior Citizen...
I'm not all that much into rap. But I do applaud Lil B for doing this. Now if only more rap and hip-hop artists would follow suit. This is a very positive move and I think he can make an impression with younger rap aficionados.
