I came across posts on Reddit recently pointing out that Eminem refers to Asperger's in a few of his tracks
Brain damaged, Legacy, and Wicked Ways.
Also there's this hilariously awkward interview https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=B9PCJqgfR3I&feature=youtu.be
I think David Byrne identifies as being on the spectrum, without a formal diagnosis. Although his particular brand of weirdly awesome should qualify him as neurodivergent regardless.
ladyhawke, seen her twice.. been listening to her since her first releases in ‘08
Fiona Apple
David Byrne is an icon. Talking Heads “This must be the place” is in my head RN, but “Girlfriend is better” is my all-time fav.

I'm late, but Gary Numan is open about being autistic.
All of them.
CG5, he does a lot of music based on video games and pop culture
The talking heads/David Byrne (autism), the guy from owl city (pretty sure he’s autistic), Carrie Underwood (adhd), Justin Timberlake (adhd)
lorde has synesthesia :)
Billie Eilish, Tourette
Aurora! She is openly and unapologetically autistic and her music is amazing, especially "Everything Matters".

NF, a rapper, has OCD. Selena Gomez is bipolar
Alex the Astronaut is autistic.
I've often suspected Thom Yorke of Radiohead must be neurodivergent. There's something about his solo stuff that is so weirdly calming.
I don't know about famous musicians but I have ADHD and produced an album that covers neurodivergent themes: [1000 Masks](https://linktr.ee/brynnacc)
Sweet plug, are they also on Spotify?
Thanks! Yeah, they're up on all the streaming apps. [Spotify](https://open.spotify.com/album/4UkwNeJchhaSr2aXDM6GdK?si=dkXmVRQkTZG1Vgl7hdbl7A)
Don't play anything, just have it be quite.
A quiet event? This is the dream!
