“The first couple days was, like, kind of weird for me. I wrecked my f*ckin’ car. I was super in my head.” He continued, “I knew afterwards that, like, I was going to have to talk to somebody, or talk about it, or people were just going to ask me stuff, or come up with assumptions. And I had to know, in that moment, I had to be OK with it.”

Isaiah Rashad Defines His Sexuality

During the interview, Rashad also attempted to define his sexuality and what attracts him to a person.

“I’m still learning about it myself. I’m putting my head in the books to find out the basics of it, but, basically, like, I’m not in full control of, when I walk into a room, of who I’m attracted to.”

Rashad continued,

“I’m more attracted to a personality,. I’m more attracted, sometimes, to the intellect. And, sometimes, it’s just being attracted to somebody.” He added, “I have an understanding with myself that, you know, to not expect anything out of myself as far as an attraction.”

Rashad first acknowledged the leaked footage at Coachella in April. He started his set with a montage of tweets and videos of people reacting to the apparently leaked clip. Fans and peers shared encouragement and support for him in the aftermath. The rapper’s most recent album is last summer’s The House Is Burning.

Feels weird to me. Do people really care if someone is gay or not?  I think that people are too much in their head. Be you. Do you.

Also, no one even knows this dude, so it all seems like a PR stunt to me.
