Houston Rapper’s Response to ‘Same Love’ Earns Him Death Threats

HOUSTON, TX – The surprise mass marriage ceremony of 33 gay and straight couples at the Grammys moved a lot of folks.

But one guy here in Houston was not so touched.

Instead of being moved to tears by all the love, Houston Christian rapper Bizzle was moved to write a response to Macklemore and Ryan Lewis’ song “Same love.”

A sample of the lyrics: “They really pushing hard for this gay thing/and it’s so wicked how they manipulate things/can’t even disagree without them making it a hate thing.”

With this song, “I’m gonna present an opposite side of this thing,” Bizzle says. “You have to be as tolerant as you say you want us to be, you know what I’m saying, with your beliefs.”

Yeah, about that. Turns out not everyone is a fan of Bizzle’s beliefs. He’s received hundreds of angry responses, and even death threats, all of which he’s shared on the internet.

“Everything you can imagine they came at me with,” he says. Every bit of it was worse than anything I said on the record.”

So do the comments scare him enough to stop what he’s doing?

“I’m not really afraid of the keyboard courage or the Twitter muscles a lot of people flex,” he says. “But I keep it in the back of my mind because i do have a family to protect.”

Bizzle explains his views aren’t coming from a place of hate, but rather a place of faith, saying, “I believe that God uses the smallest people to do the biggest things.”

A strong message — that’s fueled even stronger emotion.
