Rapper the Game has happily “outed” fellow rapper 50 Cent just days after an interview with hip hop video host DJ Vlad where the Game – former G-Unit member and multiple Grammy Award nominee – voiced his opinion on still-closeted gay rappers.

“I think there are several rappers that are in the closet and gay,” said the heavily-tattooed hip hop star and ex-gangster. “See, those are … the only type of gay people that I have a problem with. I don’t have a problem with gay people… ”

Getting into a conversation with gossip site TMZ on Twitter the Game posted: “Look @TMZ its simple: if your GAY be GAY!!! I don’t have a problem with GAY people… I like Elton John’s music a lot #StraightTweet [sic]” followed soon after by: “@TMZ but look around, shit I be surprised when I see someone who’s not GAY. My girl hair stylist is GAY & he cool. @50cent GAY n we was cool.”

The two rapper’s long-running on-off feud may be well and truly on. Not that there’s anything wrong with that.
