WHEN Keanu and Munji first met, they had no idea it would lead to them falling in love. Munji explained, "At first it was like, oh you do music, I do music too, let's do music together." But soon the pair connected on a deeper level and fell in love. The pair often get misjudged because of their appearance and personalities. "People expect us to be heterosexual, just because of our personalities and the way we carry ourselves. Everyone has an image of what a gay man should be," Munji said. Speaking about how women react to their sexuality, Keanu said, "They call us a waste." Online, the pair are often subjected to scrutiny. Keanu explained, "We've got some of the most disgusting, rudest messages." In this episode of Love Don't Judge, the couple will be meeting Munji's friend and manager, Japan, to find out his thoughts on their relationship. Japan said, "I didn't think this relationship was a good idea. I actually told him it's against the f*****g rules!"

People pursue them straight, but we're actually lovers
0:02
We got some of the most disgusting messages. I never knew two guys kissing could cause a rapture
0:08
I told him that I didn't think this relationship was a good idea. I actually told him that it was against the rules
0:13
So the first time we were in each other's space, he got in the car, he didn't say hi
0:19
he's just a little f***ing a**hole. I'm Keanu, this is my partner Munji
0:24
We move from homies to lovers. I DMed him and we actually started out as friends
0:29
We were homies. Yeah, it was legit friends. I think that even though we both kind of had that in the back of our heads, that oh, I
0:34
think he's hot, I think he's sexy. I don't think that it was honestly, that wasn't the mindset that either one of us was thinking
0:40
when we first met. At first, no. Because at first it was more so like, oh, you do music, I do music too
0:44
Let's do some music together. We both attracted men, we already knew that. So we just, you know, connected
0:49
And that's when I was like, oh, he kind of, mm. Yeah. And so then we just, it went from there
0:54
My sexual orientation, I would identify as bisexual. I am the same way. I'm definitely bisexual
0:58
Definitely bisexual. Believe it or not, this is the first boyfriend that I would say that I've actually dated
1:04
Besides him, I honestly dated all girls. I popped this chair. I definitely had flings with other guys
1:10
I would say that. I was very DL. I never thought I would date a guy
1:14
I've always was dating women. I had a few relationships before with guys and stuff
1:18
but this is my longest one, my most serious one. So, he stuck with me
1:23
We blew up on TikTok for the homie situation. That was real
1:27
We actually were homies. We were actually homies before we became lovers. People were actually shocked
1:31
They thought we were like trolling. Like, oh, these guys are like two straight guys
1:35
Like, y'all are like dating. Yeah, and that's still my homies. People will be so shim
1:39
Two quote-unquote masculine guys can't be like that. It's not what they think a gay relationship is or bi-relationship
1:47
I'm just like, look. Right, right. My lover, my homie, best friend
1:51
The number one one is, y'all are too cute to be gay
1:54
That's the main thing that we get all the time. women say it all the time, cause like what it is, we're masculine men
1:59
So it's like, women, they come up to us, they normally try to flirt, you know, yeah, a waste
2:04
Cause it's like, they normally would be like, wanna flirt with him or wanna flirt with me. And then when they be like
2:07
oh damn, y'all a couple, wait, what the ? So it's like, it's really just kinda like a
2:11
a funny thing, to be honest. Outside of that, it's like mainly like, you know, people that you got the typical
2:16
oh, you guys are going to hell, that's against the religion. People who just really, I think our personalities
2:21
is what people don't like, because they expect us to be a certain way because we're so, like we're men
2:26
and they expect bisexual men or anybody that LGBTQ to identify or act a certain way There no definition on how to be quote bisexual We done broke a few hearts but it cool Women still love us We get traction from a lot a lot a lot of straight men
2:43
who literally be trying to crucify us. We got some of the most disgusting, some of the most rudeness messages
2:49
It's just like, yo, I never knew two guys kissing could cause a rapture
2:54
We're talking about we being reposted on blogs. People telling Trump to deport us, send ICE at the rest of us, I'm just like, yo, what the hell
3:00
Legitimately someone has threatened to call ICE. Yeah, I feel like the judgment sometimes slightly gets to me only because I'm still growing as a man
3:10
so I have to learn to ignore a lot of stuff. But, I mean, I'm human. I try to chill, but a lot of times it does get to me
3:14
It definitely used to get to me, but now I just kind of laugh at it, and it really ends me up to just go harder and just continue to push
3:21
I mean, I don't really read hate comments, but whenever I do see hate comments under my skull, I just laugh it off, honestly
3:26
People expect us to be very hetero just because of our personalities and the way we carry ourselves
3:33
Yeah, they have this thing that they feel like a gay man should be. Everybody has this image like you need to wear pink nails
3:38
You need to have a skirt on. You need to have colorful hair
3:42
You need to, you know what I mean, wear feminine things. But there's masculine, homosexual men
3:49
And that's kind of what we are. So we definitely get from Fuse. So one of my favorite shoes are these shoes from this brand
3:56
I've always wanted something that's going to have people like, like, yo, what's that
4:01
And I feel like I'm more into like the grunge look. Like you will see me sometimes wearing like boots with, you know, things like this on it
4:08
Shorts with like holes that are ripped in. Then I love these black Balenciaga's
4:12
I feel like I love just black in general. Black is still my thing. Black is his color
4:15
The main important thing is about looking sexy. You know, something to look at, you know, they're going to look anyway, you know
4:21
My mom told me anytime you're in the house, you never know who you're going to run into. Either it could be your last day or your best day
4:26
So always make it effort. My manager, Penn, he will be here to speak about what his thoughts on our relationship was
4:33
And I know he's not going to hold back. So we're just going to see what he got to say. His first thought was hell no
4:38
He was not feeling it. He was not. He was actually very upset, if I'm being honest with you
4:44
My name is Japan, friend and manager to Munji, the artist. When I met Munji, I did do a background check and found out about Kiana
4:52
I was very, very, very concerned. And after our first time meeting
4:57
I was actually even more concerned And actually alarmed As his manager and friend I told him that I didn think this relationship was a good idea I actually told him that it was against the rules
5:15
Yerr! Proudy! So what's the vibe, guys? What's the vibe, nerds? You know, this is talking about our relationship
5:26
I'm just kind of curious, like, on what, like, on some of your, um..
5:30
your thoughts on like, you know, how you feel like when we first got together
5:33
So, fun fact that neither one of you guys know. Before you think we met, when I originally signed you
5:41
I did a background check on you, and your background check led me to Kiana
5:47
You know, you were single obviously. I was super duper alarmed, I mean, for several reasons
5:52
but mainly because your a** ain't supposed to be in a relationship, so I knew I was gonna bust the a** up
5:56
I was gonna end it. I was planning to end it. You know, but here we are
6:01
I heard that you guys had a, you know, touring love affair, you know
6:06
and maybe a little bit on and off again, you know. So I was a bit hesitant or whatever, you know
6:14
when you guys got together, thinking that, you know, maybe it'd be, you know, the clap, yeah
6:18
I have several rules. One of which being no relationships. I mean, it's legally first clause in the contract
6:25
It's the no relationship clause. artists and fall into pits. Oftentimes, a person is not able to reach their full potential, you know, when in relationships
6:35
you know, and the heartbreak of it all can send one into a spiral
6:39
We were split apart. I think people was kind of just putting together their own assumptions of like what was going on
6:45
But you know, we were good for the most part. That's why I waited for you to speak about Keanu, you know, first
6:52
I didn't want to maybe trigger any emotion. And I remember Keanu coming in and you didn't know that I knew who he was
7:00
I thought it would be a bad thing. Even though I know that there was like a no dating policy and things like that, you know
7:05
whenever we start working together, I think that it honestly wasn't intentionally for
7:09
us to get back together. It was more so like, you know, we, like you said, we just both tied into each other
7:14
But I find that you guys, you know, you're either a fountain or a drain, you know
7:18
And I find that your relationship seems to be a fountain for you guys. So what were your initial thoughts about the boy when you first see him
7:24
So the first time that we got, that we were in each other's space, I think you got in the car
7:29
And I can remember you getting into the back seat. And I look back at you and I said something to you And well obviously hello But I don remember you saying anything back And I was like he got in the car he didn say hi you know he just a little
7:43
like he was a little what a little brat like you know got in the car you know like I was a chauffeur
7:52
you know but you know then you know it took me a minute just to realize that you know that you
7:58
were just you know like just that was that's the way that you present initially you know what I mean
8:03
and that you're not um a a chatty Cathy. I remember those because like the first couple of months we
8:09
had a visit I was like it's always a little awkward when we be around each other we speak but we never really like say anything. And that's the one time for the first time we had an actual
8:14
conversation and it was just and I told him outside outside the night I had performed that
8:19
I said that night was probably my favorite night. Absolutely make each other better. Two-headed
8:23
Monster. Appreciate it. We love it too, that monster. Hey, are we making music tonight or what's going on
8:29
You guys only ready to do, right? We actually got studios coming up to the next third bid, so we're gonna be heading there probably the next few
8:35
and reconvene with you probably after the session and everything. You guys call me and let me know
8:39
I'll want you out of the studio and we'll reconvene and maybe get outside and coffee
8:44
Appreciate it. Love you, love you. Love you too. It's a pleasure
8:50
I will. I'll see you guys soon. That's it. Alright. Music is everything. Music is just our life
9:10
So, you know, you got to get a good sneak peek of what we got going on
9:18
My favorite thing about creating music with Keanu is just like, He sang and he rapping one day, one day he's on this type of flow
9:23
So it's just really cool just to really just see him work his magic and of course work my magic as well
9:28
It's just pure music love. Positivity. That's what I love about what we did and I'm really, really satisfied about what we just did
9:42
Our relationship works because the friendship be developed before we. And the fact that I was already caring for him as a person before I loved him
9:50
I always wanted him to go further. We just get each other, and then we are in the same field of what we want to do with our careers
9:57
I'm a judge with Vice Cupboard. There's so much more to us than meets the eye. Y'all are going to keep watching regardless, so it don't even matter to me
10:03
So keep making me famous
