Lee said he had a song “Good Soldier” which is about coming out, and in another he tries to reclaim the word “faggot” like other rappers have reclaimed the n-word. Howard said Lee claims to love rough, aggressive, and violent sex. Lee said he did and admitted that he was attracted to Gary, because he looked like a bear. Gary came in and asked what Lee thought of Artie, and Lee replied that he thought Artie was sloppy. Lee added that he wanted to slap and spit on Gary during sex.
HIP HOP HOMOS
Hip Hop Homos is a 26 minute documentary that explores the personal and professional struggles of two openly gay rap artists as they strive to make a name for themselves in a musical genre that has historically promoted their annihilation. By writing and rapping about their experiences, Deadlee and God-des attempt to debunk gay stereotypes in an age where rap has become the dominant, urban language. Will the mainstream hip hop community ever embrace queer rappers? Will the queer community ever embrace hip hop music? Deadlee and God-des certainly hope so.
