50 Cent may be all tough guy on the outside, but the G-Unit CEO falls far from the thug stereotype. Many expected a visceral hip-hop reaction to Frank Ocean's revelation that his first love was a man, but a vast array of the genre's artists have come out in support of the Odd Future singer. "Anyone that has an issue with Frank Ocean is an idiot," 50 Cent told MTV UK. "I think Frank Ocean is a talented artist, I think he's created material that made me know his name, that impressed me, with things he said on a song like 'Novacane.' " For Fif, Ocean's efforts in the studio are way more important than his goings-on in the bedroom, and because Frank has delivered exemplary performances on record, his romantic revelation is a non-issue for the Get Rich or Die Tryin' MC. "It could be revolutionary or it could be a tragedy," he said before noting the timing of Frank's announcement and his Channel Orangealbum release. "You can call it brave or you can call it marketing, because it was intentional; it wasn't an accident." 50 compared Ocean's situation to late R&B icon Luther Vandross or Intro singer Kenny Greene. Vandross was rumored to be gay, though such reports were never confirmed. Greene however, admitted in a 2001 interview that he was bisecksual shortly before he died from complications caused by AIDS. "There are artists before who have made these choices just not having made the choice to expose it to the general public before an actual release of music," 50 said. Still, 50 remarked on the changing times, alluding that secksual preference just isn't as taboo anymore — at least it isn't for him. "Obama is for same-secks marriage," 50 pointed out. "If the president is saying that, then who am I to go the other way?" 50 Cent Calls Out Frank Ocean's Detractors - Music, Celebrity, Artist News | MTV.com | |||

That was in 2004 you !! nut. WTF is a gay agenda? Giving them the same rights as everyone else is an agenda? There are still white people who think "blacks" (or whatever that means since "black" isn't even a thing) have too many rights. Gay people are k!lled around the world for being gay and here many of them are[..]aulted (Matthew Shepard ring a bell?) simply for being who they are. Hell in Atlanta they just beat up a gay kid for no reason. Growing up and maturity is whats SUPPOSED to happen. Once again, here you come with the anti-gay rhetoric. What are you scared of? You think you'll turn gay too? If you're a heterosecksual, what do you have to prove already? YOu want to be surrounded by more straight men? Are you going to k!ll gay people? Theres a reason niccas thing you're a closet homosecksual. : We see through you dawg. All this anti-gay !! has got to come from somewhere. How do you seriously feel threatened by someone you're not? Are you that afraid of being penetrated? What do you get from regulating how another man lives his life? Have you ever MET a gay person? Look at how you act. Its like a child not eating their veggies. You might as well hate arabs and hispanics if you're going to act like that. nicca you're not even that !!ing religious. Let me find out you cut your hair, had secks before marriage, or had shrimp!!tail. That[..] of yours is still going to your religious bull!! hell or whatever. Is there a gay agenda in textbooks or restaurants too? What about iphone factories? | ||
