She said, “I was just talking about my son. I just said that if I saw anything gay in my son, that I would beat him”.
The rapper attempted to provide clarity for what she had actually meant. She elaborated, “But that’s just like when your mama be like, ‘If you break my table I’m gonna beat the shit out of you.’ That don’t mean she’s gonna beat the shit out of you, she’s just saying it.”
While she stood by her comment that as a mother she does not want a gay son, Yung Miami insisted that she does not harbor any resentment towards gay people. She explained that she spends much time around many gay people, including her cousin and hairstylist.
