EPMD member Erick Sermon is voicing his opinion on the topic of homophobia in hip-hop, however, his words may offend supporters of the gay community and those who are openly gay.

The rapper-producer, who was once at the center of talks years ago that he was gay himself, was questioned by VLADTV if he felt an openly gay would exist in hip-hop. Sermon responded with a "No," and went on to explain his sentiments.

"When you talk about sports players, too, like we don't know if that's ever gonna happen 'cause that's like a curse to be in the sports and be gay and be in hip-hop and be gay," Sermon stated. "You can't be on a basketball team, football team and be homo, and be rapping... and be homo. N----s will kill you."

The Long Island, N.Y. native also said he had never worked with a gay rapper, to his knowledge, and addressed how he "can't even let my kid" watch TV shows on channels like MTV due to the exposure to "girl-on-girl" or "boy-on-boy" experiences.
