Twitter – Pastor Troy became a trending Twitter topic on Wednesday (January 29) after some seemingly homophobic comments he made about Lil Nas X went viral.
Alongside a photo of the 20-year-old artist, who attended the 62nd Annual Grammy Awards in a pink cowboy getup, the D.S.G.B. rapper condemned the outfit and accused gay men of having an “agenda,” while recalling a recent trip to Applebee’s with his teenage son.
“Welp, Guess I won’t be winning a GRAMMY…If this what I gotta wear,” he wrote in the caption. “They love to push this shit on Our Kids!! The other day @applebees had some punks kissing and laughing eating mozzarella sticks. First Thing My 14 yr old Son said was, ‘F**** Applebee’s’ And It Brought Joy to My Heart!! He sees it…their agenda to take the masculinity from Men, Black Men Especially.
“Some may say, ‘He Making Money!!’ Rupaul do too, but I ain’t bumping his CD!!! Integrity is Priceless. Y’all Better open that 3rd Eye and let your Sons Know What Is Real…Or They Ass Gone Be Headed Down That Old Town Road Foreal!!”
Par for the course, Twitter exploded with reactions to Pastor Troy’s perceived anti-gay rhetoric. Some people reminded the veteran rapper he will never win a Grammy, while others expressed their disgust at Pastor Troy’s willingness to encourage “hateful speech” from his son.
Check out the reactions below.
Now “PastorTroy” you not winning a Grammy has little to do with what you wear and more to do with your music not being captivating for decades. His songs won him Grammys not his outfits. Just say you hate gay people and go. Encouraging hateful speech from your son is disgusting. pic.twitter.com/eK1hKg3gUL

Pastor Troy thinks he’s not getting a Grammy because he won’t dress in a gender-bending way.
