Gay rights group cautious of Lil B’s gay album
By CMU Editorial | Published on Wednesday 20 April 2011
Gay rights group GLAAD (the Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation) has approached the announcement that rapper Lil B is to call his new album ‘I’m Gay’ with an air of caution. It seems they don’t think he is.
In a statement, the organisation said: “As a lyricist, Lil B knows that words matter. Slurs have the power to fuel intolerance. We hope that Lil B’s album title is not just a gimmick, and is really a sincere attempt to be an ally. He has the platform and the voice. We hope he uses it in a positive way”.
