Yesterday, a loyal reader requested that I post this video of the reigning rap king Lil Wayne planting a wet one on his “daddy” Baby’s lips back in the day.

Many believe that this show of affection between the two close friends was an attempt to start a trend that signifies the thug brotherhood, similar to the greeting that defined the Italian mafia in the 60s and 70s.

Except that the personal greeting between Lil Wayne and Baby backfired badly. Ever aware of the homosexual connotations of such a greeting, none of the hard legs in their tight clique could be persuaded to plant a kiss on the lips of Baby or any other dude — at least not while cameras were around. So the trend faded quickly.

I thought this post would be a good time to post pics of other rappers bonding with their soul mates. It’s always good to see black men showing affection toward each other instead of killing each other.

Update:

Thanks to loyal reader Nicole B. for sending this in! She told me I forgot one.
