Just a few days after defending his homophobic comments from earlier this month, Boosie Badazz wants to show the world how much he loves the LGBTQ community. 

Boosie took to Instagram on Tuesday to introduce social media to his gay tour manager, Jay Cooper.

“This is my tour manager, he takes care of a lot of business, that’s Jay Cooper,” Boosie said in the clip, introducing his friend. “He go get the money right there. People don’t understand, Jay, that I have nothing against gay people or nothing like that. You’re gay. You make half my money! I’m just misunderstood sometimes. Sometimes I just say it the wrong way. [Gay people] be misunderstood. I got family members [that are] gay, like, gay people have better hearts than us regular n****s.”

The video arrives just two days after Boosie sat down with the Breakfast Club for an interview in which he defended his previous homophobic comments about the LGBTQ community. 

“I just be feeling like sometimes I gotta speak up because, as far as straight people in the world, you don’t have any opinion. … If you say anything, ‘I’m straight, I like women,’ it’s vulgar,” he said. “You can’t brag on really smashing or your sexuality anymore.”

Boosie then elaborated on his views on Lil Nas X, sharing that his concerns over X stripping on stage were for “strong, young Black men.”

“If you were trying to raise [kids], would you be cool with sitting there and trying to watch Nas X go up there and take his clothes off?” he asked Charlamagne, before saying the host is “part of the problem.”

Earlier this month, Boosie went on another homophobic rant on Instagram, sharing that he thinks that “in 10 years it ain’t gonna be normal for a kid to be straight.”

“It’s sad how y’all tryna force this gay stuff on the world,” Boosie said. “It’s sad how y’all tryna ban artists. Y’all sad, bro, it’s sad, bro. In 10 years, it ain’t gonna be normal for a kid to be straight. It’s sad, bro. Y’all tryna force it on these kids, bro. Pushing it on the artists, pushing it on all the biggest artists. You know why? Cause’ the kids love those artists. You attacking these kids.”
