He Identifies As BisexualStarting back in 2017, Lacy commented publicly that he identifies as bisexual.“As a kid, I just thought it would be a fantasy.

I kiss a boy?,” he shared during an interview with The Guardian. He went on to add, “It was just so out of the way of anything I could obtain; it sounds crazy, electrifying, that that could ever happen to me.”He described that when he was growing up, he didn’t feel he saw any LGBTQ men who he identified with, and his surroundings made him believe he wouldn’t act on his impulses.

That has likely changed in the years since, and he now seems very comfortable discussing his sexuality.He’s Also In A BandLacy is currently making a name for himself as a solo star, but before he hit it big on his own, he earned critical acclaim and some commercial success as a member of a band.The chart-topper is part of alternative R&B outfit The Internet, who have released several albums together.While the collective has been largely quiet for several years now, it doesn’t appear they’re officially broken up, so new music may be coming at any point.He’s Been Nominated For Several GrammysAs a member of The Internet, Lacy has earned a pair of Grammy nominations, both in the relatively new Best Urban Contemporary Album category.His first nod came to him in 2016 for The Internet’s album Ego Death, and he was back for another shot at glory in 2020 with his debut solo effort Apollo XXI.While he didn’t win either trophy, he may very well earn several more nods at the upcoming ceremony.He’s Worked With So Many Amazing MusiciansThroughout his career, Lacy has worked with some of the most talented and beloved musicians in the industry in one fashion or another.
