He opened up a little more during his concert on Oct. 28, where he told the crowd that he’d been unsure whether he was “gonna say something” about these lyrics.
And in a new interview with Zane Lowe for Apple Music, Shawn has reacted to the response to his comments — with some accusing him of only mentioning his sexuality as a publicity stunt for his new album, Shawn, released today.
Zane said to Shawn: “I really weighed in — I got pissed off that people go to you for so many years, you finally came to some conclusion through your art, [and] directly to your fans, from the stage, decided to just speak your truth in that moment, how it related to you. And people accused you of using it for promotional purposes.”
“If you’re not saying anything, you’re hiding,” he said. “And if you’re saying something, you’re promoting it. It’s crazy, isn’t it?”
