I think it can be used as a non-homophobic slur, yes. Do I think most people do that? No. Do I use the word at all? No.

Same for every other word in existence. If you and I are having a conversation and discuss beforehand(and agree) that when I say "x" it means "y", it doesn't matter how the word is commonly used, definitions only describe common usage they are not the end all be all of meaning. Words have no intrinsic meaning.

Yeah I have a weird cognitive dissonance where from a certain era it's easy to enjoy the song and write it off as of the times but in 2018? It just seems out of touch and as a "return to form" that's a bad vibe.

And thinking about it yeah I don't think he has any great albums. I like some of his early Dre produced hits like My Name Is but I have no interest in listening to anything he's done from start to finish.

Nah that's the one Em album that has truly solid music even if it's just Dre on autopilot. Dre on autopilot is the ****.

And any album that has a virulent, unasked for, and kinda unhinged diss about Mariah Carey because she won't **** the artist is at least halfway to great.
