“Some of y’all already know, some of y’all don’t care, some of y’all not gone fwm no more” he said before referencing his latest song. “But before this month ends i want y’all to listen closely to ‘c7osure.’”
As ET Online notes, the track’s lyrics include a line, “Ain’t no more actin’, man that forecast say I should just let me grow.”
Many took this as a signal that the 20-year-old musician is coming out, and he responded to some fans’ well-wishes to confirm the theories. Soon after, Cyrus took to Instagram to thank her “baby brother.”
