1. Cole Redding, “Gay Americana”
“Gay Americana” // Cole Redding // 2024
“Put the stars and stripes
On a rainbow flag 🏳️🌈
And we’ll fight for love
Cause it’s all we have
We were born this way
And they can’t change that
No, we won’t go back.”
Beyond the songwriting and theme, the musicianship is turned up. Redding sings beautifully and easily on this uplifting pop joint. He’s authentic, selling the text superbly. The melodies are tuneful, particularly when he celebrates gay Americana in all its liberating glory. The instrumental is fire, incorporating the sheen of modern pop with some classic music cues. “Gay Americana” is a great addition to any Pride 🏳️🌈 list. It’s also an inclusive pop song that everybody needs to hear.

2. Boots, “Gay Guys Drink Vodka Sodas, But Girls Do Poppers”
Boots Bitch (EP) // Boots Bitch // 2024
“Do you want a shot?
Do you want a sip?
Vodka sodas are for gay guys
So, I’ll just take a hit.”
Ooh-wee! Before the final choruses, she memorably asks, “Can you believe he offered me shots? / What do I look like? A man?” Backed by sickening musical accompaniment filled with colorful synths and an infectious danceable beat (get it Kirk), “Gay Guys Drink Vodka Sodas, But Girls Do Poppers” is an entertaining dance bop well beyond its 2024 release. Gays and girls can bump to this one!

3. _SANTI_ & Samjgarfield, “BUKAKKE”
DADDY (EP) // SANTI // 2024
Sex-positivity is full throttle from our fearless and handsome pop artist. His attitude is through the roof, and we wouldn’t have it any other way. “Milkman got me waiting for a milky treat / I be the Dairy Queen / Blizzard,” he sings, lustily, adding, “Put it all on me.” Embracing his role of “Pumping daddies,” he encourages the men, “Come and dump you come and you go.” Come and dump are the keywords… then again, the ‘go’ should be noted too. _SANTI_ doesn’t stop there. Besides being “Vers like Hannah Montana,” and “Cockiana barbiana,” we get a killer verse in Spanish, signaled by a production switch. And by killer, there is a Jeffrey Dahmer reference: “Más freaky que Jeffrey Dahmer / Te la Saco como una prepago / Santi sabe que yo te lo hago” – “Freakier than Jeffrey Dahmer / I’ll take it from you like a hooker / Santi knows that I do it to you.” Holy fucking shit! Backed by badass music accompaniment (get it, SJG), _SANTI_ ‘does the damn thing’ on the risqué, utterly satisfying “BUKAKKE”.

4. San Cha, “Gay”
“Gay” // San Cha // 2024
From the beginning, San Cha delivers aggressive vocals. Often, she highlights the ‘gay’ titular lyric. Her performance is spoken work – talk-singing. There are other intriguing lyrics, however. “You can take my name / You can take my place / You can get the fuck / Out of my face.” Ooh-wee, child! She adds, “You killed me / I died / I came back / To life.” Oh, wow! Also, another word gets repeated a shit-ton: bitch. San Cha is backed by marvelous production. The beat and synths are infectious. Set in a minor key, the ‘dark’ tilt is perfect fuel for the fire of “Gay.” Ultimately, “Gay” by San Cha is not only pretty gay but also pretty damn great. Bop!

5. G Flip, “GAY 4 ME” (Ft. Lauren Sanderson)
“GAY 4 ME” // Future Classic // 2022
G Flip draws first blood, owning the lyric excerpted above from the first verse. She continues, sexually, “And I know that she masturbates / To the memories we made / And thinks of me ‘cause she knows, oh…” Ooh-wee! There is no need to hide her feelings. But, of course, there’s potential internalized homophobia, revealed in the centerpiece, the chorus, performed by both artists:
“Oh-oh
She said she’s only gay for me
And I don’t know what to believe
Yeah, she said she’s only gay for me.”
Hmm, selective same-sex attraction? Apparently. Sanderson arrives in the second verse, bringing similar vibes to Flipo in the first. “She’s coming up kissing on me / I know your momma wouldn’t agree,” she sings, continuing, “You said I make you feel so complete / But you’re in between / From what you are and what you’ve been.” G Flip and Lauren Sanderson ‘bring the heat’ on “GAY 4 ME”. They paint a familiar scenario seen in many queer songs. One person has accepted themselves and freed themselves of hang-ups regarding sexuality. The other is fearful to take the plunge or tries to justify reasons why they aren’t ‘gay.’ This is an entertaining song, but also sad because the closet can be a depressing place.

6. NVDES, “I Want to Make Out at the Gay Club”
Life with Lobsters (EP) // B3SCI // 2016
One of the best features of “I Want to Make Out in a Gay Club” is the infectious, looped riff. The record is built around this. It easily gets stuck in your head. The vocals are multifaceted. Sometimes, the vocals are performed more subtly, yet playful and sensual. As the song progresses, more overt vocals join the more restrain vocals, offering contrast and upping the intensity. It should come as no surprise that the lyric most often repeated is the horniest: “I want to make out at the gay club.” Spare on lyrics, other repeated gems include “Right here” and the least seldom heard, “Nothing but dancing and love” which caps things off. Beyond the singing, which is treated more like an instrument, complement ample colorful synths, tastefully layered sounds and effects, and a marvelous anchoring groove. NVDES gives us a heaping dose of fun on “I Want to Make Out at the Gay Club”. It is the perfect catalyst to hit the dance floor… and make out at the gay club, of course 🏳️🌈 😘!

7. Maurice Conrad, “Männersex”
“Männersex” // Creactive Media // 2023
The backdrop goes hard like any other rap song. Maurice Conrad has a banging instrumental to share their desires with. Also, they’re bold and unapologetic. They don’t care what other rappers rap about, or what other people think. They enjoy doing it with men. There is no shortage of memorable lyrics, some of which aren’t too difficult to hear in English while reading the translation. Like many heterosexual rappers, Conrad has two beside them – only they’re boys instead of girls. Memorably, Conrad spits, “Darf jeder einmal ran, guck dir an, wie ich sie reite / Ich mach’ alles mit links, fühl’ mich wie Schraubenzieher (“Everyone can have a go, look at how I ride them / I do everything with my left hand, I feel like a screwdriver”). Seeking to eradicate embarrassing homophobia in German rap (beginning with the Grindr profile requirement), Conrad colorfully raps in the second verse, roughly translated:
“Because I’m not talking to MCs without a Grindr profile
German rap is mostly some kind of overhype
Embarrassing homophobic lines
No, I’m not sorry
While they’re fronting me and screaming (oh, oh)
A twink takes me from behind and I’m coming
I’m pushing for the stars, bringing gay rap to the charts
Do I like sucking cock? Indeed, I do!
All my friends are queer and interesting
A boy by my side and two dicks in my hand.”
Holy shit! Interestingly, a different translation from German to English makes the ‘twink’ lyric more graphic: “I’m getting it in the ass from a twink, and that shit makes me cum.” Maurice Conrad brings fearless queerness to “Männersex” (“Male Sex”) which is verdammt geil!

8. Stemin, “Gay, Gay, Holiday”
“Gay, Gay, Holiday” // Stemin Music // 2024
“What a dream, it’s such a sight
You and me together we would fit so right
Slide on down my chimney
Helly, jolly man come light my tree.”
Hmm, well, that chimney sounds, um, different 😜! Also, “ho, ho, ho” is more like “hoe, hoe, hoe” in Stemin’s song. There’s more gayness that makes this “Gay, Gay, Holiday” far more appealing than a straight one! “It’s a gay, gay, holiday / Gimme loads of toys / From your long sleigh,” he sings, adding that “Naughty boys can be so nice.” When it comes to the bedroom, that’s a resounding hell yes! Honestly, he has far too much fun, whether it’s kissing Santa under the mistletoe or playing “Outside with white snowballs” (emphasis on balls). Stemin takes us on a “Gay, Gay, Holiday” we’ll never forget!

10. RYANN, “Gay Struggles”
“Gay Struggles” // RYANN // 2024
“These struggles shouldn’t exist
All my life I was trained to kill the person that I was born to be
I don’t allow myself to have some fun ‘cause I don’t even know what I, what I truly want.”
Sad, but true for many LGBTQ+ individuals. Being able to love the same sex is a win, but, the perks that heterosexual couples have aren’t always afforded to queer couples. Straight men can move differently than gay men. Beyond the chorus, which RYANN sings exquisitely, he offers more struggles. The fear of wearing an earring. Worrying what others, including friends, think. He wants to live out and proud, but it’s hard not to worry “about what other people think… when all I see are couples on the news getting punished for who they really are.” It should be fine to kiss his boyfriend in the street but, “I feel like I’m not allowed.” “Gay Struggles” is a beautiful, moving pop ballad by RYANN. This is a song not only for the LGBTQ+ community but for everyone. No one should be persecuted or treated badly just because of who they love or living true to themselves. This youngster from The Netherlands with an incredible voice outdid himself on this song. Bravo!

12. Benjamin, “GAY”
“GAY” // Warner Music Finland // 2022
Benjamin serves up bright, easygoing, and hella smooth vocals. He possesses a beautiful instrument. The melodies shine throughout, even when the verses feature their share of repeated notes and simpler intervals. The theme and lyrics ‘take the cake.’ Notably, Benjamin references a controversial, conservative Christian Democratic Finnish politician, Päivi Räsänen. Räsänen is anti-LGBTQ and has been tried for hate speech against homosexuals. During the tuneful chorus, Benjamin asserts:
“And the eyes of Päivi are already hazy
They say the world is a pitfall of dangers
This sick world took your child
I am saying my last word, and that is gay!”
One of the most ear-catching moments of “GAY” is the rare key modulation at the end. It adds to the character, intensity, and sheer power of the song. Benjamin Peltonen puts his foot into this irresistible, meaningful bop. I’ll leave you with this: “Kun avaat kaapin ovet, niin mä lupaan sulle sen, / Ettet enää koskaan ulkopuoliseksi jää (When you open the doors of the closet, I’ll promise you, / You won’t feel like an outsider anymore).” Word!
