Well Brown, who has been very vocal on social media lately, quickly down the critics and haters.

“The crazy thing is that y’all used to call me homophobic… Now y’all calling me gay???? He commented. “RESPECT IS RESPECT. WHO STILL HATES PEOPLE FOR THEIR DIFFERENCES OR PREFERENCES??? Grow up. People are abundantly simple minded.”

Rapper The Game also chimed in in Brown’s defense.

“Because two successful people take a quick photo [opp] together & one of them is gay/or not htat means the other person is gay too!!”

The Game pointed out that the man in the picture is the “head” of the successful and luxurious clothing line, Balman.

“Most of you ain’t even employee of the month at wing stop, uncomfortable in your skin using HATE to hide behind your own securities…”

The Game added that considering Brown’s songs and lyrics, “this n**** ain’t gay…”
