Answer:

It seems that a massless particle/wave would have no difficulty escaping the gravity of a black hole, no matter how massive the singularity. Although photons have no mass, they do have energy, and the gravity of a black hole (or any other gravitating body) will attract them.

If photons are massless, how come light are affected to gravity? ... Light has energy and momentum, so it has "m" in this sense. This m is the same thing that appears in General Relativity (or even Newtonian gravity) as the source of gravitational effects. So light is definitely affected by gravity.
