The Kiss ... Is it Really that Serious? Crime Mobb's New Joint
Tuesday. 11.7.06 10:27 am
For all of you who can't let it go, let's put this to rest once and for all ...
We all know that fathers and sons can be affectionate, but really tight homeboys is a new one. The kiss Baby gave his “son” Lil’ Wayne has been highly publicized throughout the Hip Hop community, and of course everyone has something to say about it. Now if you have seen the picture, I am sure you have joined the chorus of people yelling “Aw, hell no!”
But you have to look at a few simple things. First, is that the picture demonstrating the kiss was taken a very long time ago. It is clear that Lil Wayne was a teen and he is now in his 20’s. Second, if what they possess is genuinely a father-son type relationship, then it clearly was not sexually based, there for not homosexual. Still, the hip hop community has raised questions about Lil’Wayne and Baby’s sexuality. Wayne who has been praised and was the envy of many men for dating rapper Trina and now dates Solange Knowles, has defended his relationship with Baby in radio interviews, offering that the kiss was more “mafia-style” and that he and Baby are members of the New Orleans Black Mafia. Baby simply defends it by saying it was a term of endearment like a father would give to a son.
Regardless of what it is, the question must be posed, Is it really that serious? We are all aware that hip hop is extremely homophobic, but sometimes some things just go too far. If you look at the picture once more, you can see that none of the people around them seem bothered or offended by it. So maybe it was Mafia based or just a term of endearment that many are not used to, should they be condemned and questioned for it? Is their music any less believable or not as hot? The truth of the matter is, we fear what we don’t understand (or want to understand ). If they say that the kiss was a harmless, nonsexual gesture, they let it be that. But even if it wasn’t, ask yourself, when it comes to their sexual preference, is it really that serious?
First!

Cosign...Why are people trying to make that acceptable? Under no conditions is that acceptable. People don't kiss their real daddy's like that.

While I personally think that shit is way over the line, even for "an effectionate father-son relationship",
you do bring up a good point: they let someone take this picture, which they probably wouldn't if they were realy on some dl shit. Still, that shit is disgusting and not at all gangsta.
