DECEMBER 11 - SYDNEY BENNETT
Recently nominated for a Grammy in the Best Urban Contemporary Album, Sydney Bennett is better known as “Syd tha Kyd” - one half of the eclectic soul group The Internet. She famously came out of the closet in the pair’s debut music video for “Cocaine”.
“I decided to do it because I wish I had someone like that [an openly gay female artist] while I was coming up,” she told LA Weekly in January 2012. “People write on my Tumblr just thanking me for making the video, saying that I really inspire them, and they want to be like me. But I wasn’t always this way, this comfortable with myself, and I remember what that was like.”
Since that interview, she has followed The Internet’s debut album Purple Naked Ladies with two additional projects - Feel GoodandEgo Death. She is also known for her production work with the California hip-hop collective Odd Future.
