Steve Lacy, a popular musician that has recently been in the spotlight of popular music and internet sensation, with his recent album becoming a big hit on TikTok, with songs including Bad Habit, and Static  people have been using their creative ideas to Lacy’s music which has made him even more popular recently than his 2010 debut. Lacy has been touring showing off his music to those who love his music but there has been much controversy with his performances, with many people who are actually fans, and even Lacy himself expressing their annoyance with people going to the shows, while only knowing the TikTok parts.

During one of Steve Lacy’s performances he was singing his song Bad Habit and towards the end of the song he was fed up with the dead crowd and people only singing the parts from TikTok, this frustrated Lacy and he freaked out, telling the DJ to stop playing the song and he walked off, but before he went off the stage he went up to a fan and and smashed their phone off the ground. This is a very strange act for Lacy considering he is a very nice respectable person, but this outburst is raising eyebrows and making fans question Lacy as a person. 

As of now there really is no major press about this situation, but already fans are starting to pick sides. With people not agreeing with what he did but for understanding why he did what he did, because people who are actually fans of his are also annoyed with people who claim to be fans but are actually just listening to the song on social media and that’s it. But there are also people who will not defend his actions and think that he overstepped, especially with people who paid money to see him live, wondering why someone would treat people like that if they took the time out of their lives to spend a night to watch him
