Lil Nas X Says He Knows Hip Hop Doesn't Respect Him But He Belongs

Lil Nas X is openly gay and a willing troll.

That's alienated him from a good chunk of the rap community.

In an interview with XXL, LNX said he knows he's not always accepted by Hip Hop.

“Honestly, I don’t feel as respected in hip-hop or many music places in general,” Lil Nas X told XXL. “But these are communities that I am a part of, whether people would like it or not. This is something that I wanted to do because, not that my entire album is rap, but there are rap tracks on my album. I am a rapper. I am a pop star. I am a gay artist. But it’s like, I belong in these places, you know?”

Do you agree?
