With All The Issues Black People Are Dealing With, Does Singer Rahsaan Paterson's Homosexuality Rate On Your List?


Sisters Lament The High Numbers Of Black Gay Men, But Are You Not Going To Buy This Brotha's Music Because Of It?

R&B music is having an interesting year for more reasons than one. Of course there were the much anticipated releases from Jill Scott, Angie Stone, Eric Roberson, and now Alicia Keys. But along with the good music came the admission from R&B singer Donnie just days after the release of his sophomore album The Daily News (Soulthought Records) this year, that he was gay. Does this mean ANYTHING to you?

On October 7, 2007, just several days after the release of his latest album Wine & Spirits, in an exclusive interview with BETJ.com’s John Murph, the talented crooner followed fellow R&B singer Donnie’s lead and broke his silence about not only his sexuality but his thoughts on homophobia.
