N.O.R.E. is really putting it out there. In an interview he did, they asked him if he thinks there will ever be an openly gay successful rapper??? His response was, “There is, there is and you won’t get me to say the name but there is… Not openly. Once he is a success story and cannot be stopped… Yeah he is going to come out of the closet. But I mean in the beginning, I think no…. But when he does come out people will continue to go to his parties, buy his sneakers, belts, purses….”

Whoooaaaa!!!! Who is N.O.R.E. talking about???

  • Jonathanonetreehill

    Lil wayne and Diddy

  • Somer

    There are plenty of gay/bi rappers. They are just not out of the closet.

  • beauty

    He said ‘once he is a success’ and he will come out but ‘not in the beginning’ so it must not be anyone who is already highly successful like Diddy or Kanye. It is probably a newer rapper

  • RobinSharee

    The Hip Hop and Rap world is homophobic.

  • http://www.gravatar.com Shim Shim Sha La Bim

    Ah, yes, my two cents: Diddy. Anyone with bottle-nosed dolphin teeth that continues to find himself hugging other males from the rear position in photo’s is definitely gay.

  • hot fyah

    or it could be jimm or juelz.ha ha with those man bags and louie scarves. nah I’m just joking

    @ What up Shim…
    I see you spitting knowledge again today LOL!

    Stop it! But you already know that some people just can’t catch up; even if they had on skates and you were walking…LMAO!!

    So you’re wasting your time you know this right?

  • Adrienne

    Im going with either Pharrell or Diddy. Who else has a clothing line? Parties? and Nore has done songs with. I’m really leaning towards Pharrell for the simple fact that he has worked with Nore on numerous songs back in the day, does not have pull like that in the industry bc of competition with other producers (like Polo, Timberland, Dr. Dre, and others)and raps……Hummmmmm?

  • Brooklyn, Stand UP!

    He’s talking about Puff Daddy, lol… Sean John purses & belts, lol….

    What kind of a grown man calls himself “Puffy”, lol…

  • Thats Why I listen 2 JaZZ

  • Mama Mila

    BABY or the CASHMONEY Team….Kissing kids in the mouth that aren’t yours…..that’s gay!!!
    Pharrell…..obviously gay
    Kanye…..not gay but probably likes his butthole played with
    Diddy……bisexual……or gay!!

  • Daphne

    See I automatically thought Diddy too, BUT as Beauty said, it’s someone who hasn’t been a success yet. So it could be anyone coming up.

  • Hunter

    @Jadya I was thinking Jay z as well but Drake is who he’s probably talking abt Toronto is a gay mecca. Also I heard abt Luda being gay aa couple years ago as well as Dr. Dre. Bow Wow, Mase, Omarion, J.Holiday, Neyo, Chingy, and those guys who sing “Jerk”, are as just as Obvious as John Legend imo.

  • Hunter

    Sorry but i can’t believe ppl are saying Not Kanye thats Y hiv is spreading in the black community becuz girls hook up with obvious dl guys so sad put on some glasses ladies are u kidding me..

  • LOVECHILD5O4

    Maybe NORE is just trying to mess with us and trying to get attention by making this up……

    Food for thought…..lol

  • LOVECHILD5O4

    But maybe if it is true, there arent many rappers with shoes purses ect…… So lets narrow it down…..

    Who wants to start?????

  • The Bear-

    @ num1dominicano

    Busta?????? That one came outta left field. Why Busta?

  • VA All Day

    AS MUCH AS ALL OF YOU HATERS WANT IT TO BE DIDDY HE CANT BE TALKING ABOUT HIM BECAUSE HE SAID 3 OR 4 TIMES “ONCE THE RAPPER IS A HUGE SUCCESS THAT CANT BE STOPPED THEN HE WILL COME OUT” DIDDY IS BEYOND THAT STAGE SO KEEP ON GUESSING

  • Brooklyn, Stand UP!

    @Treez

    Or, better yet the type of homo that defends piffy’s sexuality on a blog, lol…

    ===========
    You have to remember its suppose to be someone “Not Yet Famous” all the above mentioned already have made a name for themselves. They wont get much more famous than they already are.

  • http://bossip TIABABY09

    I always thought Nore was kinda cute:)

  • LOVECHILD5O4

    Maybe its NORE!!!

    lol

  • http://myspace.com/luv2luvme69 iBlowKisses

    kanye for sure he may as well come out we all know he is it ok kanye its ok

  • BUFFALO

    Now, I did not take the time to google if they have worked together but what about Kid CuDi? Not only is he a new-comer but he is very stylish and I could definitely see him coming out with his own clothing line but then I thing of the BELTS/PURSES and it doesn’t make sense. This will drive me nuts until I JUST KNOW!!!

  • CanadianChick

    I think Pharrell..he is gay..for sure.

  • http://bossip MoniSings

    I am not even going to try and guess. Far as I’m concerned, a whole lot of rappers are on the DL. Wouldn’t surprise me one damn bit if everybody mentioned in these comments came out sooner or later. Except Hov. That would shock me. Everybody else is fair game.

  • http://OJIFDJPO I CAN’T SAY….

    Ahhh that is too funny!! But I think a great deal of men in entertainment are gay: rappers, dancers, actors PERFORMERS!! Just the same as most male artists, dancers and designers are gay so are these other types of performers… And ladies, we need to come to terms with it– Maxwell is sooooo gay!!

  • Sepia830

    He said “ONCE he is a success story..” This would imply that the person hasn’t blown up yet, therefore it can’t be Kanye, Ne-Yo and Diddy (although they are all suspect in my book).

  • crazypants

    The statement doesn’t even make sense – once he gets big the rapper will out himself – but once he does people will still buy his clothes and sneakers and what not.

    If the rapper has a succesful clothing line and people going to his parties – isn’t he already big?

    WTF is he waiting for?

  • tayler

    dummies does drake throw parties and have his online sneaker line?? NO!! yal sound stupid.. but ya im thinkin either pharrel or diddy

  • fatal

    t I think its a toss-up between kanye and diddy

  • The Truth Hurts

    Okay for the person who says the statement did not make sense…..

    The person is new to the game and will become a success, in the meantime they are working out a deal for sneakers, belts, etc. (hence, people will buy it when it comes out)

    The person NORE talks about, he knows very well that the person is very gay. Just stay tuned =)

  • TABINA DIXON

    I’M GOING TO SAY IT’S DIDDY COMBS I DON’T CARE FOR THE ARROGANT RAT AND YOUR RIGHT WHY IS IT HE JUST KEEP WOMEN AROUND FOR SHOW DAMN MEN JUST TAING OVER LOL IT’S SICK BUT REAL AND WHO AND THE HELL IS THESE TWINS SEE THIS IS WHY BABY DADDY’S NEED TO STEP THE HELL UP AND HELP THESE LADIES OUT

  • philly

    1. drake
    2. diddy- signed day 26, loon, ma$e, andre hurrel
    3. busta
    4. kanye-signed john legend, kid cudi
    5. all of atlanta – luda, jermaine dupri, bow wow, trey songz, b. cox, everyone else
    6. lil wayne- kisses baby, signed drake
    7. souja boy-screws that boy ‘arab’

  • GHyde

    did everybody forget about Pharrell???

  • She Day

    Maybe yall are being too literal about the interview. 1) “once he is a success story” indicates that he is NOT currently a highly successful platinum selling artist, right? Probably. And 2) just because he says “people will still go to his parties, buy his sneakers, belts and purses” doesn’t mean that this artist CURRENTLY has a clothing line or currently throws parties. But that’s what successful rappers do. He could just be speaking theoretically…like when this artist becomes a platinum-selling “success story” and gets his own clothing line – like platinum selling rappers ALWAYS do- then people will still rock with him, even after he comes out the closet. Apparently, this person is a highly talented artist and NORE thinks he can break barriers- as if NORE is a credible source to make that determination, but that’s neither here nor there…

    Has NORE ever done a song with Drake?

  • Breezi

    Claps at Philly. Not only where I’m from, but who’s speaking the gospel. Leave Pharrell OUT of it.

  • Grownup A.K.A. Flawdagurl

    I think he is talking about Kanye. I love Pharrell but he is pretty suspect…

  • Grownup A.K.A. Flawdagurl

    @philly

    y u say Drake? Never really paid attention to him but I do like his mixtape.

  • ddot

    well it’s pretty obvious it ain’t Pharrell or Kanye

    cuz he said “once dude is a success story..he’ll come out the closet”

    both pharrell and kanye been a success story that can’t be stopped for like 5 years now.

  • philly

    @Grownup A.K.A. Flawdagurl

    drake was a gay rapper from the giddy-up. but all the fake “groupie tales” started magically coming out (by his label of course), then he was linked to kanye’s good friend rihanna,who needed to be publically linked to some1 besides breezy at the time. it was all good timing. but drake, kanye, and even bi-sexual rihanna are all tight

  • breeee.

    Question: what do you all think makes somebody gay? Like John Legend. I mean maybe my gay-dar is completely off, but I see no signs of gay-ness in him.

  • BzHunny

    Ok STOP it wit da Drake references…He aint GAY…I luv him…lol. I think It’s Diddy- he has tha hottest parties and dresses tha flyest- and we no Gay boys have all da SWAG!

  • ..*MOcarsMOclothesMOjewelsMOdoe*..

    shiiet.most of those rappers been to prison and prolly got they booty dug out.not much surprise me these days.

  • HotCoko79

    Yup I’m with Drake I mean he was on Degrassi…LOL

  • f*ck_scientology

    Lil wayne (too easy)

  • I know

    It is N.O.R.E. he is talking about himself get a clue !

  • pray4yourself

    DIDDY. Member diddy took Karrine and Xzibit to a gay club? Yep. And he mentioned parties, Diddy is famous for his boring parties. Is this news though? Hell naw.

  • Raina

    He definitely implied that the person has a shoe, belt and purse line and that the person throws parties. Didn’t he also say something like “the people who they SIGN want to be like them”. That means the person has a label of some sort. They are probably successful but not enough to come out yet. Given all that, I say Diddy.

  • I’m Just ME

    Is this based on personal success?? Just wondering because what is success to him may not be success to me.

    Anyway my gay list:

    Ne-Yo
    John Legend (1 & 2 cannot be denied)
    Busta
    Diddy
    Ma$e
    Chingy (y’all know it is true)
    Baby
    Puffy
    P-Diddy
    uh and Sean Combs

  • norcal

    WOW I DIDN’T KNOW DRAKE AND LIL WAYNE ARE HIP HOP! HIP HOP IS WU-TANG AND SO ON….

  • I’m Just ME

    @ Norcal

    I can agree with that. Heltah Skeltah, Originoo Gun Clappaz, Black Moon!

  • cocoakinky

    Either Kid Cudi or Drake…hell maybe even Soulja boy (but let’s be serious for a minute…if he don’t stop with that dance music, he won’t be around much longer). I don’t know who else though….

  • s.i.y.t

    it’s diddy…but im still upset it is…

  • http://www.bossip.com stylez

    the minute when i 1st read the part about “ppl will still go 2 his parties,and buy his sneakers,and belts,and purses”..i immediatly thought of diddy….cuz he’s known 4 his parties and he has a clothing line…but den i had 2 read carefully..lol…cuz NORE said that “once he is a success story and cant be stopped”….thats when i was thinkin it gotta either b drake or kid cudi…but aint either one a dem known 4 dere parties…and las time i checked neither 1 a dem sold belts,sneakers,or purses…SO DAMN……IM LOST!

  • The Public Is So Ignorant

    Now I see why they say the general public is beyond ignorant. If it takes you 10 times to understand NORE’s interview then I suggest you keep replaying. Now, you recall him saying he sat in meetings with whom he is refering to. Look at the record companies he has been signed to. Roc-a-fella ring a bell? It’s obviously Jay-Z. Just because he married Beyonce does not mean a damn thing. He has Roc-a-wear which has belts, purses, etc.. an etablished clothing line. He shared a apartment with football player Larry Johnson and for what? They shared this apartment while Jay-Z was supposely “dating” Beyonce. People wake up! The devil is live and messing with your minds. Start researching, keyword: Illuminati.

  • http://thisis50 tina

    I bet its more then one rapper..diddy,chingy,nelly,busta,lil wayne,birdman,and kanye

  • melanie

    gay musicians have been around as long as there has been music and that goes for the black community as well. it’s nothing new. almost all of them are at least bi-sexual. black rappers behave much like the ancient Greeks – they denigrate women and LOVE MEN. hyper masculine and preferring in every way, MEN.

  • http://thisis50 tina

    The public so ignorant is right..Jay-Z could be the one

  • Bob B

    You have to be straight to rap ?..us gay’s rule..if if weren’t for us it would be a black & white world..we are the poets ,artists, designer’s..we make the style..and you all wear it..

  • Raina

    Okay, so I actually listened to the interview instead of just reading excerpts. He is talking about two different things.

    1) He is certain he has worked with a closeted gay rapper. He gave no clues about who it is.

    2) One day, a gay rapper will become such a success that he will be able to come out and people won’t even care.

    NON STORY.

  • http://bossip.com MONEY MON

    sean john is the only rapper i know with a line of purses shoes belts and clothes

  • BullCityBaby

    There is something wrong with people that don’t like gay people. You shouldn’t dislike the people, rather you should HATE the act of homosexual sex/the spirit that causes that desire. Its disgusting and its wrong. And for anyone who analogizes being gay to being black—find me a sacred that says being black is wrong. You won’t find one. They are not the same.

    oh… and I have NO idea which fag he is talking about. He threw me with the “Once he is a success story”

  • enlight

    OK,checked his wiki page….folk who stand out to me for being possble party throwers and fashionistas are Jim Jones & Cam’ron….yo no se’!

  • C Drive

    Drake “lil wayne kissing men and carry a purse maybe he someing out with a purse line” or Kid Cuddie ” Kanye and his whole crew seem Gay”

  • jaiiz

    haha l0lwut grown man calls hiself puffy…umm not ne-yo he don’t rap but does seem gay 2 me soulja boy don’t got no clothing line..so process of elimination…i think diddy..but nore threw me off wit once he’s successfel

  • I’m Just Me

    Maybe he is talking about Big Tigger. Don’t they have some underground song together? He is out but he (tigger) isn’t know for his rapping. I think in that category he is still up and coming. I am sure he will come out with a clothing line when he takes off soon and didn Supa Head pretty much tell us she saw Tigga getting it in his A Z Z and bleeding from it.

  • 2cents

    Diddy?!? Proactive commercials, Chapstick….plus he went to Howard…over half the dudes there are gay.

  • mrs. hernandez

    i think it could be kanye or p.diddy. he mentioned that once the rapper goes 4 or five times diamond then he will come out. this statement could mean that the rapper in question is already 2 or 3 times platinum but has not yet reached a status where he would have a great following that will stay true to him no matter what he does. believe me. this is someone who is in the game already they just have not gotten to the level they want to be to come out and it dont matter to others.

  • Lah

    Its definetly puffy

    1. he said “he cannot be stopped”, the song Mase and Puffy made in the 90′s

    The lyrics states,
    We can’t be stopped now, cause it’s Bad Boy for life; We ain’t, go-in nowhere, we ain’t, goin nowhere; We can’t be stopped now, cause it’s Bad Boy for life;

    Hmm, bad boy for life or gay boy for life.

  • Lah

    Its definitely puffy,

    In 2006, Nore made a song called Bailar Conmigo
    featuring Puffy.

  • Godsfavorite

    I don’t think it’s puffy because he is already established and doesn’t do underground rap. Who was maino talking about? he didn’t rap with puffy. I think it’s lil wayne…

  • realistik

    ….all of them rappers are either gay or bisexual. Just damn good at hiding it.

  • Choocolate Dude

    OK & HOW WILL THE ANSWER AFFECT ANYONES PERSONAL LIFE AGAIN?

  • Mommy

    Read the book “Hiding In Hip Hop” by Terrance Dean. There are a lot of DL brothers out there in the rap game and in Hollywood. He does not mention names but gives many clues. If you know your music or do your research you can probably figure out who he is talking about.

  • Meh!

    Is this not a website geared towards blacks? Why are there commenters worrying about grammer. You’re in America! They are still adding to the english langauge. Also the word homophobic probably about two years ago meant, if you commited a crime against a homo you were homophobic. They only recently change it to mean you fear the lifestyle. However we have to live amongst them or how would we survive. They run the World. I don’t like there lifestyle but I do not fear them. I only fear God because I know the overall power he possesses.

  • claygirl

    well who ever it is needs too come out ..im sick of the down low black men its digusting!

  • SHI

    OK SO NEYO IS DIFF NOT WHO HE WAS SPEAKING, NEYO IS NOT A RAPPER! DID NORE DO A RAP WITH DRAKE? IDK….DIDDY IS ALREADY ESTABLISHED, COULD IT BE RICK ROSS? BUSTA, MAYBE PHARELL
