NEW YORK (AP) - Kanye West says ``gay'' has become an antonym to hip-hop - and that it needs to be stopped.
During an interview for an MTV special, the 27-year-old rapper launched into a discussion about hip-hop and homosexuality while talking about ``Hey Mama,'' a song on his upcoming album, ``Late Registration.''
West says that when he was young, people would call him a ``mama's boy.''
``And what happened was, it made me kind of homophobic, 'cause it's like I would go back and question myself,'' West says on the show, ``All Eyes on Kanye West,'' set to air Thursday night (10:30 p.m. ET).
West says he changed his ways, though, when he learned one of his cousins was gay.
``It was kind of like a turning point when I was like, `Yo, this is my cousin. I love him and I've been discriminating against gays.'''
West says hip-hop was always about ``speaking your mind and about breaking down barriers, but everyone in hip-hop discriminates against gay people.'' He adds that in slang, gay is ``the opposite, the exact opposite word of hip-hop.''
Kanye's message: ``Not just hip-hop, but America just discriminates. And I wanna just, to come on TV and just tell my rappers, just tell my friends, `Yo, stop it.'''
West, whose debut disc ``The College Dropout'' won a Grammy for best rap album, will see his second record in stores on Aug. 30.

Some people are very immature. I'm not the biggest supporter of gays but Kanye is right. Gays are people too.

But gayness is just fucked up.

this shit is weird man i felt weird readin about a rapper talk about bein gay is okay
-
lmao, you guys are hilarious.
there's nothing wrong with being gay and good for kanye for speaking out for what he believes in, but "gay" in hip hop is just an expression, its just a word that dont mean anything. i can see how people take offense at it though, its prolly good to stop using it and shit tho

And I thought there was a lot of ignorance in Train Of Thought. Oh, was I wrong...

Sigh. What the fuck is wrong with everyone here. Kanye tells people to stop discriminating, and y'all are just saying "no, it's right to discriminate someone just because they fall in love with people of their own sex"? Check yourself. I might as well start discriminating people with brown hair from now on. Call you a brownie 'n shit.

yup. You people are by average probably at least my age and I canīt get rid of the feeling youīve got quite some growing up left to do. You bash gays for a sport, thatīs the problem. And some of you actually take it far enough to get moralistic about it and declare how "wrong" it is, which makes you a bunch of hypocrites to the bone. IF you wanna cultivate bigotry and go on preaching about what a sin it is, then: Stop listening/liking any music that glorifies violence, propagates mysoginism, talks about stealing things, fucking girls without being married to them, includes cuss words (particularly those related to religion like "goddamn"), is based on "wrong" religions such as Islam, talks about the consume of illegal drugs or includes any illegal activities at all, talks about jealousy or critisizes the god-given circumstances as such. Burn your "Chronic", "Doggystyle", "GRODT", "Safe & Sound", "Dogg Food" & "AEOM" copies, stop fucking your girlfriend, and get up on 7 am on sunday morning to go to church.
And then you can come back into this thread and whine about the crime of homosexuality again. Until then you remain a bunch of hypocrites.
Call me a fag if that makes you feel better, but prove your point

What tha fuck?? homosexuality is a fuckin disease and it's not normal
