Lil Nas X coming out is going to spark change in the hip-hop community … so says Ty Herndon, who thinks Lil Nas’ bravery will make it easier for others in the industry to be themselves.
We got Ty before his Thursday night set at Rockwell Table and Stage, and our guy asked if the country music veteran thinks Lil Nas X will help other gay hip-hop artists feel comfortable and accepted enough to come out.
Ty’s the first male country musician to reveal he’s gay, which is why he says he knows times are a changin’. He flat-out believes … in Nashville, your sexuality doesn’t matter anymore — and he thinks Lil Nas can bring that same change in hip-hop.
