It’s Official! Rapper Nicki Minaj finally comes halfway out the closet and announces she is bi-sexual on her recent interview with Detail Magazine. The mag poses the question: As an openly bi-sexual rapper, do you think hip-hop is getting more gay-friendly? Nicki’s reply is “I think the world is getting more gay-friendly, so hip-hop is too. But it’s harder to imagine an openly gay male rapper being embraced. People view gay men as having no street credibility. But I think we’ll see one in my lifetime.”

I luv Nicki Minaj – no homo. I think that it is a double standard in the rap industry when it comes to sexuality. I personally do not care who the rapper is messing around with behind closed doors, it doesn't affect their lyrical skillz. I have close friends that chose not to listen to her anymore because she goes that way & all I say to that is most of those rap dudes you listen to get it in the butt, you just don't know it. Will you still listen to them if they come out?
so i guess by the way this is presented theyre sayiong along with other things nicki is a big reason for rap hopefully progressing and being more accepting towards gays?
sorry i dont think so. this is a huge double standard in society which is reflected in hip hop , that its okay for a woman to be gay or bi (in fact if anything its praised and DESIRED) so its not exactly making progress as we alreday know people think its hot for a woman anyway, this would only be progress for hip hop if it was a male
