Carly is having a lovely time, Bob the Drag Queen’s favorite asset, Sam Smith’s deepest desire: Your weekly bop roundup
Let’s dig into the greatness of our favorite LGBTQ+ artists and allies in this week’s queer music roundup “bop after bop“….She’s done it again, folx.
Carly Rae Jepsen is back with another companion album, which has become a tradition with every album she drops. Starting with E•MO•TION: Side B back in 2016, Jepsen has gifted fans with albums that serve as sisters to her releases, offering b-sides, cut tracks, or totally new tracks that act as a companion of the original release.
In this case, Carly’s The Loveliest Time dropped today, a response to her 2022 album The Loneliest Time. Carly’s charming lyricism, unabashed adornment for pop music, and candy-coated melodies always leave fans begging for more, and with the standout track “Psychedelic Switch”, a dizzying disco moment that expertly mixes prog rock and trance elements, Jepsen proves she has mastered the art of crafting the perfect pop song, and we’re having the loveliest time listening.If you’ve been a Bob the Drag Queen fan for as long as I have, you know Bob loves a certain *ahem* asset on the human physique almost as much as she loves teasing her sister Monét X Change.
Aptly titled “BOOTY”, this single off of Bob’s debut EP Gay Barz is a hilarious, rapid-fire rap ode to the derrière, accompanied by a hilariously irreverent feast of a music video that is a collaboration with Big Mouth animator Alex Salyer, that perfectly matches the track’s energy.
