In a move no one could have anticipated, Eminem has agreed to change homophobic lyrics from several of his songs for the sake of London’s Wireless Festival that kicks off next summer.
The always controversial rapper opted to clean up his act after learning that gay rights activists were likely to picket next summer’s concert.
“We have a condition that he does not use lyrics that encourage or incite hatred against gay people,” OutRage! spokesman David Allison disclosed. “He is free to express his views on gay people, as long as he stays off the violence and hatred. He has got plenty of other lyrics to choose from. In recent years he has become quite well-behaved.” (MSN)
