In reply to Sheltop.

Jay Z did that exact thing for Frank Ocean... you want him to find a gay rapper to support just to prove a point to you? That sounds counterproductive.

But I have a genuine question, and I’m asking because I don’t know the answer. Obviously there’s cultural elements that everybody created, but who do you think started the process. Did the gay community first use female diva icons to shape their culture, or do you think it was it the other way around? Because as far as I can see, the inspiration is not one sided...
