They did care about him when Brand Nubian had their toxic moment. That’s what I was referencing. That was a moment where they almost lost their record deal, FYI. He didn’t even say it, but it didn’t matter. That was part of his group.

“At the end of 1992, Brand Nubian released the single "Punks Jump up to Get Beat Down". The track created controversy because of its homophobic content such as Sadat X's line "I can freak, fly, flow, f*** up a fa****/I don't understand their ways; I ain't down with gays". Despite this, the single charted on the Billboard Hot 100 at number 77.citation needed Later versions omitted the line and replaced it with different lyrics, including the version on the greatest hits compilation The Very Best of Brand Nubian.”

If social media was around, Elektra would have dropped that group. 😳

Imma let y’all in on something since y’all obviously would never know.

Black people don’t automatically equate HIV with gay people. It’s not an instant thought. That’s y’all equating this s***.

Also him talking about sucking d*** in the parking was more than likely a derogatory statement to niggas who kiss ass of other niggas to befriend them or come up in the industry, the DJ confused y’all by saying the “Sus” s***. But niggas always be like “quit sucking d***” when they notice somebody kissing ass. This is not a reach, this is the clarity y’all are missing.

This s*** is so fake, I can’t even stand da baby music, I think he trash but this s*** is obviously people grasping at straws.

Same people push away the straws when it’s time to stand up for black people. Willfully ignorant, ignoring how to read between lies. Scum behavior way worse than anything that man said on stage. F*** y’all.

even if you take away the homophobia. Saying AIDS/HIV will have you die in 2 or 3 weeks is something that an almost 30 year old saying in regular life would have you laughed at and ostracized.

I see how it’s easy to jump to the conclusion that he was being homophobic based on including hiv and sucking d*** in the same quote, but you are right. @FaceClef

That doesn’t necessarily make them related. Saying not sucking d*** in the parking lot could have referred to anyone of any sexuality, and you also don’t have to be gay to have hiv/aids.

Anyone who jumped to the conclusion the he was being homophobic are actually the ones that probably are, because they are the ones that are assuming that you must be gay to have hiv/aid or you must be gay to be sucking d*** in the parking lot.

Funny s*** honestly
