Video: T-Pain angered by homophobia in Hip Hop

T-Pain addresses a previous comparison he made concerning Ray J after seeing his sex tape with Kim Kardashian, which led into a conversation about people being homophobic. The “Up Down” rapper believes that “if you aren’t gay, then gay things shouldn’t bother you.”

The conversation then turns to T-Pain’s gay assistant, which the rapper says has made other people uncomfortable to approach him in the club or any time they are together. He believes that there is so much homophobia in hip-hop that it stops people from working with talented artists like Frank Ocean, which T-Pain says is “terrible, because they need Frank Ocean on the song.” The Florida native adds that he doesn’t work with anyone who’s homophobic in the business and who cut others off over the way they want to live their lives.
