Speaking of it being OK in Hip-Hop though you're not wrong it'd probably be easier to name rappers who HAVEN'T used this word.
Basically what I said. I don't know maybe he's a hardcore gaybasher on the down low but I suspect he didn't really care that much and when he got a record deal and saw the world and got rich enough to keeping seeing even more of the world I wouldn't be surprised if the provincialism that breeds homophobia and other prejudices faded away at least to an extent. Like a dog who gets socialized properly and doesn't bark at black people.
