Openly gay British rapper Mista Strange is the star of BBC’s new show “We Are Black and British”. The show features six Black Britons from different lifestyles and backgrounds who came together and scrutinize the issues which they faced as Black people in the UK in the present UK.

In the two-part series, each cast opens up about their personal stories, brings into question the Black experience in modern Britain, and comes up with ideas for feasible solutions. During the filming of the show, they live together in a Cotswolds country manor for ten days and are encouraged to engage in a series of discussions on topics comprising politics, race, and more.

Mista Strange came from London. He shared on the show that “being Black and gay” has prepared him “for these sorts of situations”. He echoed, “I usually find that you get excluded from your culture. So I really wanna get into that conversation.”

Joining him are Lin Mei, Michelle White, Kehinde Andrews, Raphael Olaiya, and Dominique Samuels.

After the show premiered, he received several messages from a fan who dealt with similar circumstances. Posting the snapshots of a handful of them he wrote, “This is why I do it. I live in the service of God. I live in service of love. When a message is so strong it is undeniable. When the message comes from the source it will affect people in the same way.”

He concluded, “We will not only hear it but feel it because the message speaks not to the ears but the soul. This message has been dormant inside me waiting for the right time. But God’s timing is divine and that time is now. You are all loved eternally. Thank you all for your kind words.”

Does Mista Strange Have A Partner?

Then, he touched on the subject of being able to rap about his experience dating men.

Speaking with Metro.co.uk, Mista Strange said, “Before I came out I started to write some lyrics hinting, very subtle and I was the only person who knew what I was saying.” He did it so that his listeners would speculate and ponder his sexuality. After coming out he rapped about what he was going through so it would be no different after he came out.

He shared about exploring his sexuality, a new lease of life, and he is enjoying and experiencing it.

Mista Strange has experience of what it is like to date girls and he has rapped about it too. For him, it was the stage of denial and hadn’t come to full acceptance of who he was. He switches lyrics based on his experience and what he was going through and he certainly isn’t afraid to do so.

He was worried in the past about coming out. Since LGBTQ+ issues were considered taboo he was scared about the reaction of the Black community. He felt the White community would be more accepting of him being gay and it was the case for a lot of Black gay kids.

The rapper shared with the outlet that he is keen to dismantle the stereotype that gay men are feminine, and admitted he felt pressure to be less masculine rather than more. He added, “Emotion isn’t synonymous with femininity. Masculinity is more emotional than femininity, men throw tantrums all the time, it’s just in the form of rage. Men are just as emotional.”
