Georgia rapper and real-life bigot Pastor Troy is playing at Pegasus Niteclub this weekend.
The 43-year-old born Micah LeVar got in trouble, as he should have, when he went full homophobe in a since-deleted Instagram post about Lil Nas X. I guess we shouldn’t expect much from someone whose hits include “ATL Hoe” (the misogynistic lyrics from his group D.S.G.B.’s single “Make Em Get That Money Right” could make Luke Campbell blush).
The ticket page states “VIP Sections Available” so, have fun with that. No word on what the COVID-19 protocols are like at the Pegasus, but Creative Loafing Tampa Bay has reached out and has not heard back as of press time.
If you don’t feel like spending money on someone so hateful, you can donate the money to a LGBTQ orginazation like the local Metro Inclusive Health.
Pastor Troy. Saturday, Feb. 13, 9 p.m. $15. Pegasus Niteclub, Tampa. eventbrite.com
