The Guardian reported that the songwriter, Victor Willis, clarified that the song is completely heterosexual. He shared on Facebook, stating, "When I mention 'hang out with all the boys,' it's simply 1970s black slang for black men gathering together for sports, gambling, or just socializing. There's nothing remotely gay about it." He even warned he might sue anyone who claims the song to be a gay anthem.
One thing is certain: Trump's going to perform that signature dance next week without a doubt.
