My very young boss told me this morning as I was waxing rhapsodic about this album. Meh. Perhaps it’s overcompensating. I do think the boy can blow and says what I like to hear. I had heard the same kind of rumors about Jaheim, who also has nice expression about the ladies. Perhaps it’s the gay/not gay/gay boys who get it.</p> Since lately I’ve been obsessed with politics instead of music, I hadn’t heard of such rumors until today.

(”All these women around me/ cats still saying ‘he can’t be straight’/ Gimme your girl and some Platinum Patron/ when she come home/ you can ask her, ‘Is Ne straight?’/ she might smile, but she won’t speak much/ yawning, ’cause last night, she ain’t sleep much/ she won’t even talk about what we did/ just smile, close her eyes, and say ‘yes, he is.’”)</p> Don’t you think that he’s overcompensating for the rumors of his homosexuality?
