Beenie Man's apology mentions Eazy-E

[EazySteve]

"This spirit of "looking the other way" is so insidious that it often goes unnoticed and is only revealed in our expressions of sympathy and skepticism. Even as a young person, hip-hop's attitude toward women bothered me. It's attitude toward gays did not. Biggie saying "All you heard was Poppa don't hit me no more," bothered me in a way that Eazy E's "this is one faggot that I had to hurt" did not.

There's a lot more misogyny in rap than homophobia, simply because women are a more common topic. But I didn't even bat an eye when Eazy said that. That the verse was basically an expression of open season on gays never occurred to me. It wasn't even a moral dilemma to be considered. If you'd asked me about that line I probably would said, "Yes it's awful" and then denied any real collective import at work."

so basically he said what?I'm not that good at English please simplify it lol

Basically he's saying lyrics about homophobia arent as important or wrong to him as lyrics about hitting women or calling them bitches and blah blah blah. Obviously that's because gays are easier to ignore than women if you're a straight man. Which is weird why ppl go outta their way to tlk about gays wen they dont give a fuck about them. But ah well.

Whether they are hurting women, gays or white people, it never bothers me in rap lyrics. Back then people just referred to gays as fags more often, not trying to be overly offensive.

In Eazy-E's defense, if I was about to make it with a really hot bitch then found out she was nothing but a man I'd probably hurt that faggot myself.
