How would "Sizzla" feel if a white supremacist band came to his town and sang about murdering black guys? Would he give them a big hug and thank them for exercising their "free speech'?
The same "free speech" excuse used to justify anti gay hate speech is used by the male dominated porn industry.
The ACLU calls porn "free speech" even though many images are of real women being raped and beaten. Many women in porn are NOT actresses who are faking the abuse.
So, the porn industry advocates (and is a training manual) for violence against women just as Sizzla encourages and advocates violence against gays—but thats "OK"— its just "art" and "free speech"
