Fret not; his other ventures have not kept his eyes and ears away from music.
Reportedly ‘98% done’ with his official debut album, word has it the yet-titled LP could hit the streets before the end of the year.
Turly disgusting how society keeps trying to turn black men into f****** right in front of your eyes And you guys continue to do nothing about it….
TF?
He’s a black gay man . Stupid comment
We can do something about it if you provide a theory and concrete evidence to support such a bold statement. That’s if you can prove gay black men never existed before till now.
Society can’t turn someone into something that they’ve always been. However, I don’t agree with the new rush of “outness” that’s running rampant in the world. Like keep it to yourself. Most folks coming “out”, people already suspected anyway but confirmation is certainly not needed
TGJ y’all late. BTW where is the report of Mulatto allegedly calling her brown skin friend an ‘Orangutan’? Betcha if it was Doja Cat or Cancola Cablo y’all would be all over it.
He is so fine yum yum in my bum
