Offset Issues Apology on Controversial “Queer” Lyrics


Gay

Featured Posts

Offset claims that he was just using a word to rhyme with “here, lear, solitaire, bear” and the “queer” he meant was “weird,” “odd,” “strange,” etc. He didn’t mean “queer” as “gay” 

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 offended I offended anybody

 

Here’s the proof: 

A follow up to this thread:

Personally I don’t even know what to think but it was dumb that used the word queer. He should have known better

GGD, what y’all think?

Did he really post a screenshot of the dictionary definition.....come the **** on man. 

 

Edit: also, at best, this proves this guy is dumb as hell and uses thesaurus.com or something to make his raps. using words he doesn't even know.

The issue to me is not what it means to him but what the people/fans who'll sing the line make it mean

Ouch, My back hurts.

Why did he end his apology by turning it on the people who are offended? Does he not know the word is used by people to discriminate? I'm sure he's aware his fanbase will use the word in the wrong way.

Even if he did mean it in the non-homophobic way how can he not see how it's interpreted.

This is like the damn monkey sweater. He obviously knows the context of what he said. We aren't stupid, and we see the issue very clearly.

queer has always meant strange, weird, unusual, etc. it's been around for a while and has only just recently in the last few decades been used as a derogatory term for gay people. that said, the lyric can easily be interpreted as him saying he doesn't **** with gay people, so it's bad word play on his part regardless. it's 2018. ain't nobody thinking of the actual definition of queer, lol.
