"Think not forever of yourselves, O Chiefs, nor of your own generation. Think of continuing generations of our families, think of our grandchildren and of those yet unborn, whose faces are coming from beneath the ground."
-T.S. Eliot
Some rappers distance themselves from the silliness that is "no homo" and simply do not utter the two words, even when they are extremely applicable. The force themselves not to partake, and they do not enter their music into the game of "no homo." While I do respect their choice, I feel as if sometimes, even if you are in that category of artist, it is imperative that you clear things up. One of these artists is Kid Cudi. Rarely ever arguing his straightness in the lyrics of his music, he places himself above such tomfoolery; however, sometimes it works against him.
Take for example, his song entitled "09 Freestyle" off of the "Dat Kid From Cleveland" mixtape.
"Most niggas will quote you, play scrabble with your words man/till they see you at your show, it's my dick that they blow, MAN!"
I don't think I really need to say anything here but what is really necessary. No homo, Scott. For everyone's sake.
