Offset Apologizes For Homophobic “I Cannot Vibe With Queers” Lyric

Published: Thursday 18th Jan 2018 by Sam

Migos star Offset is feeling the heat after homophobic lyrics he rapped on a feature went viral.

Crystal clear for all to hear, the 26-year-old spat:

“I cannot vibe with queers”

Interestingly, though remorseful, he seems to think his words were…taken out of context.

See what we mean below…

Taking to Instagram stories, in a set of entries which have now been deleted, Offset wrote the following. The appalling spelling and grammar are all his:

“tryna make me out to b a homophobic… ima whole gangsta….I don’t even speak on sexuality…

the difinition ain’t even that…tryna make it about gays…I work with them all the time at events dealing with fashion, tv shows.

I wasn’t gone speak on it but i see too many dumb ass MF on here talking about shit they don’t kno..I’m not against nobody…your choice in life.

I have fans that love my music..I don’t descriminate &  don’t speak on politics or sexuality. the actual meaning ima post it from google

I do not judge people..I been in front the real judge and they judged me and sentenced me. I’m here to bring people together with fun music. Culture 2 OTW.”

All of a sudden the shockingly poor spelling and grammar take a more professional turn and tone, leaving us wondering whether someone else intervened. It read:

“I apologise to anybody I offended by the world “queer”..

I was not referring to sexuality. I was referring to my reality of not hanging

around people that wanna post me and stalk me..sorry it was taken as the wrong content. only God can judge. I don’t.

I love all of my fans no matter race sexuality”

UPDATE: He added this…

I didn’t write the line about gay people. I have said before since these issues before that I got love for all people. My passion for fashion has lead me to a lot of gay people around me who I have mad respect for and we are very cool so I’m not in a place where I’m hating like that. When I wrote that I was thinking of words that could rhyme with the others (here, lear, solitaire, bear) and I saw this definition about her having a queer feeling she was being watched and it fit what I was thinking about a stalker creepy paparazzi situation. To me that “queer” I don’t mean someone who’s gay. I mean lame people who film you, post it and stalk you. Lingo that means strange or odd. I M S O R R Y I A P O L O G I Z E I’m offended I offended anybody

A post shared by OFFSET (@offsetyrn) on

Bye.

The fact he attempts the age-old practice of trying to make this about how “out of context” people took his words makes the whole episode worse. And ultimately null and voids any such apology from the jump.

While his writing casts doubt over his intellect, we highly doubt he’s that mentally divorced from reality to not know how his words would be taken.

From where we’re sitting, he got taken to task for an offensive lyric on the cusp of an album release and is executing poor damage control.

    well he’s better than Quavo and the other one cause Migos as a collective are yet to issue an apology over the SNL-Katy Perry incident. I’ll give him that. but I can’t @ “I don’t speak on sexuality or politics”

    • Meme January 18, 2018

      They don’t need to apologize. Katy’s camp was dead wrong to expect them to be cool with t*****’s and drags dancing all around them. That doesn’t fit their brand. Jays, Drake, Kanye…any other rapper would have done the same thing. Even some gays aren’t even cool with drags dancing around them, what make you think straight men would? Stop forcing that on people who don’t want to be associated with it. Simple.

      • Paulo January 18, 2018

        Shut the f*** up dumb ass ho. Drags are artists, performers and entertainers just like Katy and them and they deserve respect. They were hired and invited to be there and Katy’s team shoulda known better. How would you feel had it been the other way around?

      • Jasmine January 18, 2018

        Paula you shut up b|tch! Meme is 200% correct. If you are an artist you are an artist you are “hired” to do a gig (like you said) but what you fail to realize is that with any gig if you don’t like what the gig entails you have the RIGHT to quit, demand more money, or demand changes before you do the gig. Nobody can force you to do what you don’t want to do. Period.

      • Paulo January 18, 2018

        Ho Ho Ho, Captain Save A Ho is here! You’re dumb and wrong as usual, Jizzmene. Nobody can force you to do what you don’t want to. But nobody should be able to force other people out of their own jobs and gigs without rightful reason… are you seriously defending that people in positions of power should b*** minorities out of the way when it’s convenient? Let me ask the same question that your sidewalk buddy failed to answer… would you stand by the same crap had it been the other way around?

      • Jasmine January 18, 2018

        Paulo being a “minority” has nothing to do with it. Dancers get fired from gigs for no reason and nobody says anything nor does there have to be a reason because dancers are replaceable. Your delusional perception is that trannies are entitled to special privileges that the ordinary person is not entitled to. That is why you are trying to pin this on “minorities” when it is not a minority thing at all.

        You are probably a t***** and can only see things from a delusional / mentally challenged point of view so you believe trannies are entitled to things the ordinary person is not. Anyone that was born a male and thinks they are a woman has mental issues. God does not make mistakes. Perhaps you were meant to be gay so instead of chopping off your manhood why not use the blessing God gave you?

      • Paulo January 18, 2018

        dumb h*** always contradict themselves… this has nothing to do with them being minorities according to you YET you were SO QUICK to co-sign Meme when she said they weren’t obliged to be comfortable around drag queens. DUH! LMAO you just exposed yourself as the fraudulent homophobic s*** you are.
        Respect is not a special privilege, it is a right which ANY human being deserves, including transpeople – which you claim to respect yet you keep calling them trannies all of a sudden.
        God does not make mistakes, I know! Being a fierce ass homo is one of the many predicaments he blessed me with… but your momma sure made a mistake when she let her daddy hit it and then waited 9 months to s*** you instead of flushing your inbred piece of s*** down the toilet.

      • Jasmine January 18, 2018

        Paula this has nothing to do with your parents or mine so leave them out of this. We simply have a difference of opinion. No reason to get bent out of shape, calling people names, or cursing (all of which you are doing). Grow up. If you feel trannies are entitled to respect that is your opinion. My opinion is that no one is entitled to respect just for existing…respect must be earned. You are an evil, bullying, gutter b|tch and I hope you stop stalking my comments loser. I’m done with you trash. Now go away to the dumpster where you belong and leave Princess Jasmine alone!

      • Paulo January 19, 2018

        LMAO I guess someone got caught up in their messy contradictions and had to bail out… keep your mouth shut when it comes to matters you don’t understand such as human rights and homophobia and maybe I won’t check you again. bye Jizzmene, good night

      • Jasmine January 19, 2018

        Paulo you are a disgusting F A G G O T. Get lost. I always say what I mean and meant what I said early and I mean to call you a F A G G O T b|tch. Eat sh|t and die. Your life is meaningless and disposable anyway. No one will miss you so just die already!

      • Paulo January 19, 2018

        And you’re not a gay hater right? Lol transparent much? The only thing disgusting, other than the rotten fish stank coming out of the roach nest you call ‘your p****’, and your horse face too, is your hate. Which queen took your man, Jizzmene? Poor thing. I’d be mad too if the only dude crazy enough to get close to your Chernobyl zone walked off to bigger better and cleaner things.

      • Jasmine January 19, 2018

        Paulo I am very transparent with my disdain for YOU! That has nothing to do with anyone else. You are attempting to bully me! Paulo b|tch you should be thanking me. You have been stalking my comments thirsty for me to communicate with you. Now that I finally gave your b|tch f a g g o t self some attention where is my thanks? You got what you wanted now stop trying to bully me and get a life LOSER!

    • China January 18, 2018

      LOW ON TALENT, HIGH ON HYPE……GIVE IT 12 MORE MONTHS THEY WILL BE THE T-PAIN OF THE MUSIC BUSINESS. HOPEFULLY, THEY ARE INVESTING THERE MONEY OR THEY WILL END UP WHERE THEY BELONG…….ON THE CORNERS SELLING WEED……LOSERS.

      • Caleb January 18, 2018

        Please don’t compare them to T-Pain who, regardless of where his career is right now, has a heart of gold and is a caring and considerate person.

  2. arjun January 18, 2018

    Well try do not think that everyone is as stupid or have brain smoking like yours.I am gay and I wonder if there are really guys who like this kind of ugliness because personally just seeing his face gives me the nausea

  3. Lala January 18, 2018

    He wanna look like auntie whoopi so bad ??

  4. Meme January 18, 2018

    Listen we are all too sensitive. His core fan base are just like him…”homophobes”. We have a long ways to go before hip hop embraces gays. The 2 just doesn’t go hand in hand. That’s his brand, being hard is his brand. The hoodies who follow them don’t want to see them supporting gays.

    Y’all must be slow if y’all don’t get that and get offended by these ghetto dudes.

    • Its me Gowrl January 18, 2018

      Girl hush yo dicksuckers! Hip hop is as GAY as your dad and u! Queen!

    • So FRESHER January 18, 2018

      I SECOND THAT meme! It’s not rocket science. I love all ppl but this gay s*** be going too far. Yes he should apologize but that SNL s*** was too far to be attached with their brand.

    • Jasmine January 18, 2018

      I agree 100% Meme. I think gay people should support their own gay rappers before attacking the straight rappers. I have yet to find a post about Big Freedia on this site.

      • Paulo January 18, 2018

        If the straight rappers continue to come for us we will continue to come for them. Period. You never gave 2 shits about Big Freedia on this site either, how convenient, Jizzmene. Not only you’re scum but you’re also a waste of c**, your momma should’ve aborted your ugly dumbass

      • Jasmine January 18, 2018

        Paula stop stalking my comments. I love Big Freedia and I workout to her music. You probably don’t own any music from gay rappers. All you know how to do is hate on straight men and women because they don’t want you. I suspect you are S****** in disguise because all you do is troll TGJ looking for my comments so you have a reason to attack me. Well b|tch the world keeps on going and while you are hating on me I am making money, loving life, and staying pretty. Bye gutter b|tch.

      • Jasmine January 18, 2018

        And Paula don’t ever speak on my parents again disgusting b|tch! The only “waste” is the sh|t you let those poz men take on your face b|tch!. Stop being so bitter b|tch! It is nobody’s fault you have the Monster but you nasty troll b|tch. That is what you get for being a desperate s** addict with yellow / brown shower tendancies.

      • Paulo January 18, 2018

        try and stop me from speaking on the crusty ass S** infested pigeon you call momma, ho! you musta bumped your head when she shat you out of her wide-ass cloaca if you think I’m Suicidal Bomb. our font is nothing alike. you two have more in common than I could ever have with either of you – both y’all some Syphillis-ridden retarded hating-ass bum b******.

      • Jasmine January 18, 2018

        Paula do not ever speak on my parents again b|tch. Unlike your mentally retarded momma, my parents have class, sophistication, and they raised me right. I have never had an S** my entire life because unlike you I stay in straight monogomous relationships. You are the one running around with warts on your private parts from spreading it wide and laying it low to anybody that wants to sh|t on your face! You have no standards at all. That is why your diseased ugly self keeps coming for Princess Jasmine instead of bowing down to me like you should be doing. You resent me because you wish you were me b|tch. You need to get a life and go crawl back in the sewer you slithered out of while I continue to sit on the throne. Bye Paul-a!

      • Paulo January 19, 2018

        LMAO the only way you’d sit on a throne is if they put a crown in the jail toilet. you’re nothing but a hateful ass inbred b**** whose crackhead ho momma shoulda sold for some extra dope but you too ugly so she had to keep – that’s why you’re so resentful of gay and proud folks, cause you wish you had anything about yourself you could love. you’re just a bottomless pit of self-hate and c**, Jizzmene.

      • Jasmine January 19, 2018

        Paulo you are a disgusting F A G G O T. Get lost.

      • Paulo January 19, 2018

        Stop wasting time trolling on the internet and wipe that ‘throne’ real good Janitor Queen… lmao Jizzmene you ain’t shi t but a joke. It was a pleasure talking to your retarded ass I needed a laugh

      • Jasmine January 19, 2018

        Paulo you are a disgusting F A G G O T wannabe bully. Get lost.

  5. Shaka January 18, 2018

    Damage control of what…???
    Yall need to stop acting as if Migos saying homophobic stuff in their songs in the hip hop game would actually spark a real controversy and would stop them from being one of the most trendy rap group among the 14-32 year old. The q**** audience have no real control nor impact over the hip hop game.

  6. Its me Gowrl January 18, 2018

    He gay so oh well

  7. Kp January 18, 2018

    q****

    strange; odd.
    “she had a q**** feeling that they were being watched”

    Us gays are tooooo damn sensitive. It’s annoying. ?

    • Kp January 18, 2018

      Context!

    • BHYISI January 18, 2018

      You know damn well he meant homosexuals when he was talking about Q*****. How are other gays trying to call gays sensitive for being tired of being the punchline or bashed in Hip Hop?
      I swear some of you gays are a disgrace! All a person needs is a little fame and you’ll excuse anything they say or do. Even if it’s at your own peril.

      • KP January 18, 2018

        Cry me a q**** river…

    • Caleb January 18, 2018

      So if somebody calls you f ag it’s okay because a f** is a pile of sticks? Get real.

  8. Hmmm… January 18, 2018

    You are just as responsible for your implications as you are for everything else you say. I hate when people try to say that. “Ya’ll took it the wrong way”. No. You said it the wrong way. We didn’t take it anywhere. I’m not buying the “I didn’t mean it that way” excuse but even if that is the case, people who think long about what they say before they say it have enough foresight to know how that would easily be interpreted as homophobic. And it’s not a reach either. Don’t leave yourself open like that, especially if you aren’t prepared to explain yourself and honestly, I don’t think he was ever capable of that.

  9. iluhmesomeDRAMA January 18, 2018

    All of Migos are homophobes. Homophobia = internalized struggle between 1’s truth and the stigma of the LGBTQ community that they should belong to. Basically, all of the homophobes within migos including offset are huge closet cases and i’d bet bottoms at that. Its 2018 and NONE OF US ARE HERE for any of these lies about context and what not. She knew what she was doing mouthin off those hatefull ass lyrics. I hope Cardi & now Tinashe pay close attention. Our community claps back on these messes and their supporters, don’t forget. We shut biz and whole industries down to get our rights, i’d like to see Miss Offset keep tryin to come for my people.

  10. The Wig Snatcher January 18, 2018

    One of them Migos dudes appear gay. Not Quavo or Offset. The other one. I always have a hard time remembering his name.

    • Caleb January 18, 2018

      Come again

  11. jerzeejay18 January 18, 2018

    Who?

  12. Lawrence A. Harrison January 18, 2018

    I could give him the benefit of doubt, if he used the word as an adjective. He did not. He used it as a noun. Which leads us to infer he was referring to someone. What’s more, he used the plurative. We can be even more assured he was speaking of a group.

  13. Remmy January 18, 2018

    I actually believe him… because of fashion, he has no choice but to at the very least “tolerate” gays… unfortunately in the hip hop culture, it helps your career to bash gays… it would balance the fact that he looks so “gay ” different…I’m not sure why but I believe him… he’s the black Liberace for crying out loud lol

  14. GurlWepa1989 January 18, 2018

    It’s called “Freedom of Speech”. Where doesn’t have go be everyone cup of tea. So what if he said that? Everyone seem to be in their ‘feelings’over little things these days. He’s not out terrorizing anyone..let him be. He’s an artist and should have the freedom to express his work and have his own preference. Stop feeding people the homo agenda.

  15. @KurtisLeeSinger January 20, 2018

    He needs to apologise for his face PERIDO!! Because his face is a little
    off set! That’s all!
