Boosie Badazz Stands Firm on Comments About Lil Nas X and LGBTQIA Community: ‘I Gotta Speak Up’

Boosie Badazz is standing firm on his homophobic statements about Lil Nas X and the LGBTQIA community.

The 38-year-old rapper sat down with The Breakfast Club early Monday morning to talk about getting banned from social media, his upcoming projects and his recent homophobic comments toward Lil Nas X and the LGBTQIA community in support of DaBaby. He says he feels heterosexual people should stand up for other heterosexual people.

“I just be feeling like sometimes I gotta speak up because, as far as straight people in the world, you don’t have any opinion. … If you say anything, ‘I’m straight, I like women,’ it’s vulgar,” said the “On a D*ck” rapper. “You can’t brag on really smashing or your sexuality anymore.”

Boosie then said he takes issue with Lil Nas X taking his clothes off on stage. “If you were trying to raise [kids], would you be cool with sitting there and trying to watch Nas X go up there and take his clothes off?” He questioned Charlamagne.

Charlamagne responded to Boosie, saying he wouldn’t want his children seeing anything sexual on television at a certain age, regardless of their sexuality. He added that he’s seen more harmful imagery on the media growing up.

“Man, Boosie, we grew up seeing worse images on T.V., man. We seen dudes on T.V. holding guns, celebrating gun violence. Celebrating violence against women. The drug culture. The gang culture,” said Charlamagne. In response, Boosie said, “And all this leads to my opinion.”
