Gay rappers are uncommon, but Angel Haze easily breaks stereotypes. She identifies as pansexual, a person who can love “men and women but also transgendered, androgynous, and gender fluid people.” She once dated Alec Baldwin’s model daughter Ireland Baldwin and doesn’t get hung up on pronouns when people describe her.

“I sound like four people when I get written about as ‘they’. It drives me crazy. If you call me ‘him’ or ‘her’ it doesn’t matter to me. I don’t consider myself of any sex. I consider myself an experience,” she told the Evening Standard in 2015. Her music tackles subjects such as racism, rape culture, and homophobia.
