our hot sheet wasn’t enough, look no further than this week’s roundup of new music from your favorite queer artists. This week’s new drops are a little introspective, somewhat somber, a bundle of bangers, and even a handful of holiday cheer.
I mean, what more can you ask for?!Okay, I’ll cut it with the alliteration and have you see for yourself. Check over this week’s edition of “bop after bop” below.. Omar returns with another tug at our heartstrings with “Live For Me”, a soulful ballad that gradually transforms into a tender slow jam by the time the track comes to a close.
This approach lends itself to the song’s cathartic meaning, as his previous release, “Ice Slippin”, detailed his coming-out journey, we now hear Apollo extend his support to those who have gone through similar situations, having transitioned from processing things in solitude in “Ice Slippin” to now offering a message of solidarity.
Not only is the track a vocal showcase for Omar but it is also paired with a gorgeous video directed by Bandiz and David Heofs.
