In the process, Sam's fans have watched as they've begun speaking fearlessly about their identity with the world.100 issue, the magazine crowned Sam with the superlative "Evolution of the Year." In the interview, Sam chatted with their close friend ALOK about their big milestones from the past year and how Sam is not only erasing binary lines in their daily life, but in their music and creative work as well.
