Saucy Santana admits that he originally didn&#8217;t like feeling &#8220;boxed&#8221; in as a &#8220;gay rapper,&#8221; but has since come to <a href="https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/saucy-santana-discusses-linking-up-with-nicki-minaj-and-rumors-that-walk-is-a-diss-news.144330.html" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">embrace the title</a>. The 28-year-old artist discussed his relationship with the LGBTQ community during a recent interview with Office Magazine.
&#8220;Initially, it was,&#8221; Santana said, when asked if it&#8217;s &#8220;annoying&#8221; being reduced to just a &#8220;gay rapper.&#8221; &#8220;Now I take it and I embrace it. And I&#8217;m glad, I&#8217;m proud and I treat it with pride.&#8221;

He continued: &#8220;I initially was so big on being accepted by the straight people that I didn&#8217;t wanna be known as a &#8216;gay rapper.&#8217; Now I don&#8217;t mind someone calling me a gay rapper or a LGBT rapper because that is my community. That is my culture. And that is who I&#8217;m fighting for. I used to get offended about being called a gay rapper because I didn&#8217;t wanna feel like my music was boxed. I&#8217;ve proven even with me being gay, that my music touches everybody. &#8216;Material Girl&#8217; is being sung by kids, men, women, grandmas, aunties, uncles, and grand-daddies. So, my dances are being done by white, Muslim, Spanish, Black, 50-year-old, 20-year-old, 10-year-olds, etc. My music touches and inspires everyone. So I don&#8217;t mind holding the &#8216;gay rapper&#8217; rapper title.&#8221;
Santana is best known for his hit singles from 2021, &#8220;Material Girl&#8221;, &#8220;Walk&#8221; and &#8220;Here We Go,&#8221; as well as guest appearances on Love &amp; Hip Hop: Miami.
