  • its really self explanatory. society usually relates a man switching his hips with homosexuality. they use this stereotype as a guide thru their poetic story of a black gay man's struggles. then turn to a tribute to mathew shephard and rashawn brazzell, 2 gay males who's deaths (as a result of them being gay bashed) became nationwide news.

    as a gay black male, i'm like in love wit this
