Da Brat Believes Being Openly Gay In Hip Hop Is "Way Better Now"

Some LGBTQIA+ artists spend the entirety of their careers, if not their lives, without ever speaking about their sexuality.
It was about a year ago when Da Brat confirmed that she was gay, and while there has been speculation over the years, the So So Def icon revealed that she was afraid of speaking about her sexuality because of the stigmas in Hip Hop.
Since coming out, Da Brat has been candid about her relationship with mega-successful beauty business mogul Jesseca Dupart, and following the recent controversy with DaBaby, the Rap veteran sat down with TMZ to discuss the state of LGBTQIA+ acceptance in Hip Hop today.

"It's way better now.
Back in the day, it wasn't cool," said Da Brat.
She mentioned the backlash Ellen Degeneres endured when she came out including being dropped from brands and losing business deals because people didn't want to work with her.
