YG has kicked off the new year hoping for a fresh start with an apology. On Wednesday night, YG took to Twitter to pen an apology to the LBTQ community.
“it’s been brought to my attention that my old views on life was ignorant,” he wrote. “I apologize to the LGBTQ kommunity for ever komin across like i was anything but respectful and accepting.
Live. Love. Ya Life. Gang!”

It is unclear which specific homophobic or transphobic comments or actions YG’s been called out for. It seems like YG would simply like to address any instance in which he expressed those types of comments, to clarify that those were not his intentions and that he respects and accepts the LGBTQ community.
Many fans responded to YG’s tweet praising him for his message…
