Sr. Correspondent Danica Dow is further exploring the taboo topic of homosexuality in hip-hop. And she 's enlisted some of today's most popular artist to weight in on the topic. Terrence Dean, David Banner, Nelly, Young Berg and even popular gay blogger and respected journalist Clay Cane offered their two cents on the hush-hush hot topic of gays in hip-hop.

Check out the video below.
No matter what side of the fence you stand on this controversial issue, you have to respect those who chose to speak up on the topic in any capacity.
While every other hip-hop site chooses to avoid a very prevalent discussion, SOHH.com consistently proves its pioneering presence in the game by continuously pushing the envelope in hip-hop.
Shout out to Danica for an amazing job on the video.

Whats the point if he aint sayin names?
I have to question Terrance's real intentions and purposes behind this book. Closeted gays are nothing new in entertainment nor are they limited to just the hiphop industry. But people's fascination with the overly masculine black male that hiphop often represents makes accusations of down low activity a hot commodity. Anyone who has had ANY affiliation with the black gay community knows that it is virtually the ultimate desire of many gay black men to be able to sleep with the straight acting overly masculine male. Now I'm not denying that there are probably a lot of homos in hiphop but I can't help but wonder how much of this "down low" phenomenon is a sensational spinoff of a very popular and intrguing rumor.
....
I totally agree that homosexuality needs to be addressed in the black community, but to me it seems that people like Terrance Dean and Wendy Williams are just exploiting an over exagerrated fantasy for personal gain and notariety and aren't really helping to address the issue in a resposible results producing way. They actually are instilling additional fears and are drinving others further into the closet.
The author of the book is definitely gay.
how can a man be attracted to another man? fuck that women look to damn good for me to on that b.s. i think its satan making these niggas think being gay is kool.

This whole thing has been blown up to be bigger than it is. It's really pathetic how so many people are obsessed with the sexuality of other people, meanwhile many guys on this site and others that are so damn paranoid about anyone thinking they might be gay that they have to quantify every statement with "no homo" even if it's something as simple as giving another man a compliment. You have fans that feel any rapper that doesn't make stupid gangster music is gay. What they fail to realize is some of these gangster rappers are really putting on a front to give the perception of being straight and the fans buy into it suddenly thinking they can identify who is gay or straight by listening to the music and watching videos.
The throw in the constant homoerotic insults that people on hip hop blogs toss back and forth to each other and it really makes you think. You can pick damn near any blog on this site and just read the comments, it's insane that all the insults are completely homoerotic.
It MUST be pointed out that ALL of the examples of celebs who have come out were WHITE. There would be a huge difference in reaction if these were black men.
The Black American community is nowhere near ready to deal with something like this, and you can't force it to.
man I don't understand that stuff in my opinion
I've worked security for Nelly before and have seen him engage in homosexual activity....It's funny to see him give his views on it as if he isn't apart of that lifestyle
shout outs to danica for having such big ass titties. How is it possible to sit across from them things and be gay? damn all that.
50% of new H.I.V. cases are in the black community. The prison sytem is about classism (who has money for lawyers and who dont). So we as a people can wrightfully argue that. But when 50% of new H.I.V. cases are black we cannot argue that. Yeah the government made AIDS but at the rate it is spreading in our community can be directly contributed to dope fiend bitches and closet homos. And I beleive their is alot of them, not just in our community, but everywere.
Please nelly is the furthest thing from being gay, so please refrain from lying on these blogs. Thank you
It was kind of bugged out to hear Nelly say "whatdone in the locker room stays in the locker room is not for the public"? That sht alone is type suspect! But this homo-gay sht is getting out of hand. Now @ days you have pre-teen to teen agers talking about them having Gay feelings and not desirng to be involved with the oposite sex! It is fking scary! It's like a trend! or a disease. Just last week a neice of mine, that I seen grow up- got kicked out of school for fighting over a another girl! Got to admit it I was very dissappointed with the whole gay sht on top of the fighting in Scjhool non the less! It is crazY
LOL @ I LIke Big Ol Breastesses!!!!!!

Exposing the behavior of the DL in the Hip Hop community. I don't see what’s wrong with the topic. Everyone is posting that the gay shit is not that ramped in Hip hop and to let people live as they please. The problem is that these men are dipping in chocolate (ass) and then dipping in vanilla (pussy) that’s a dangerous combination. These Artist and regular men who participate in this activity have families and wives. They are passing on the HIV and AIDS virus. NO I don't care about the life style they lead the question to me is not rather they are gay but, how responsible are they being with their sexual encounters. How honest are these Men hip hop artist and beyond to the people they sleep with. What if your girl got with her favorite artist and he is on the DL and he fucking men she then climbs in bed with you and you eat her coochie. That don't sound to damn appetizing does it.
Be gay live happy I don't give a fuck but use protection be honest and stop sucking people into the deception of you being straight. Fuck it put on the facades while doing interviews but behind closed be real with yourself and people you fucking.
Nelly looked upset and sending a message like shut the fuck up. He said "what goes on in a locker room should stay there" that is a fucking gay statement if I ever heard one. Nelly is DL and so is that other dude talking about backwards boxers.
in the famous words of Pimp C Just come out the closet. Nobody said a gay dude can't bring the noise and handle his business. He is still a man who knows the streetz and the game.
This DL shit is ramped.; when you walk down the street look around and notice how many men switching their hips more than women and they have a lager lip gloss supply. Look at your homeboy and see if he gazes into your eyes. Sex is not a toy to play with you use toys for sex. in other words stop infecting women and wives. The black community is suffering and the last thing we need to deal with on top of all this other shit is gay men playing straight. Bad enough many brothers dont have jobs, stand on the corner everyday, are in jail, use drugs, etc. now this shit. stop the madness and teach the future boys how to do it right to compete in this depressing racist world. There has to be more than one Obama. I wanna know who is gay so I will stay the fuck away from them and no that don’t mean I won’t buy his album it just means the artist will always remain in a talent category
@ Phil
The Black community doesn't need to except the degenerative gay culture the same as other degenerative culture. We pride ourselves for have general common sense when reguarding gender and nature order. When you break it down what does homosexuality promote: Gender identity confusion, ideal disorder of the basic fundementals of natural order and selection, cowardness in men, etc. Gays doing belong in any occuptaion thats considered masculine ranging from being and rapper or serving in the millitary. I have personaly seen how unmasculine and disconnected homo-guys are. The way they carry and conduct themselves is pittyful.
Whats worst is how they are attacking are culture, our schools, our families, our children and OUR WOMEN! Gay guys are spring boarding off women's "care-free" nature and brainwashing them to get to "US". I am sick of seeing our women being around these perverts, YES PERVERTS, because homosexuality IS a perversion of the nature order of human and mammal sex and reproduction. Even plants have "male" and "female" parts.
Furthermore, I am sick of homo trying to falsely add numbers uamong their ranks. Gays want to claim everybody is gay if they fall out of a relationship with someone of the opposite sex. I'm sick of all the gay myths and lies, such as 10% of the US pop. is gay-
Since now gays are stepping onto legitamate battlegrounds such as religon and poltics they are now liable to get beat the fuck down just like anyone else!
I Love Hip Hop Honeys too Much!!!!!!!
Pro you don't have to lie in order to leave a comment...Nelly has had the same security forever and they consist of family and a close friend so your lie was a dead give away as soon as you mentioned security! I think all the men that spoke on the matter are secure in their own skin so that's why the didn't have a problem speaking on it...now it's those ones that's quick to holla no comment are the ones to be worried about!!!
GROWN MAN SHLDNT HAVE 2 SAY NO HOMO y u gotta prove 2 tha next man u not gay?? wtf? man if u knw u lyk pussy n uget it den dont worry bout tha next man n his thoughts do u n keep gettn pussy
