The Canadian singer has been focused with feedback round his sexuality for years now. As he mentioned in 2020 in an interview with Dax Shepard, “Everybody’s been calling me homosexual since I used to be 15 years previous…I am not homosexual and I am like, ‘What does that imply?’ I had these issues with the best way my voice sounded. I am like, ‘How do I sit?’ I am at all times first to cross my legs and sit with a place of this female fashion and I actually suffered with that shit.”
In a fan video captured by TikTok consumer @theliyahrich at a latest efficiency in New York, Shawn debuted a previously-unheard track on acoustic guitar. “I’ve a change of coronary heart / you may say what it’s worthwhile to say,” he begins within the clip.
“You may say I’m too younger / you may say I’m too previous / you may say I like women or boys / no matter suits your mould,” he continues. “However I’ve by no means been higher / so name it what you need.”
Cue Shawn followers within the remark praising his professed indifference:
In accordance with Folks, the track is titled “The Mountain” and can be on his self-titled album set to drop on Nov. 15.
Guess we’ll see when the total model’s out!
