The openly gay rapper Lil Nas X in a recent interview said the music industry expects artists that are part of the LGBTQ+ community to “sanitize” their identities - something he refuses to do.
Nas also celebrates his identity with his gender-fluid fashion and said he wants every artist to feel comfortable expressing themselves, regardless of who they are.
Nas has built his career around being his most authentic self, and his recent album “Montero” features songs about his real life as a gay man.The music industry often expects queer artists to refrain from referencing their sexuality too explicitly in their work, rapper Lil Nas X said in an interview with CBS Sunday Morning.
