🎧 In 2007, Canadian #LGBTQ rock band #TheCliks covered "Cry Me a River" on their debut LP, "Snakehouse."

That's #LucasSilvera on lead vocals — the first openly trans man to sign to a major label (#TommyBoy).

On reviewer described the band as "what might happen if #ChrissieHynde and the Murmurs' #LeishaHailey fell in love, got #Bowie to help out with insemination and gave birth to an indie rock love child."

🎧 #Mood | #Gay #Anthem by #Amber — "Sexual" (Li Da Di), 1999.

Remixes of this track were huge on the "Circuit Party" scene at the turn of the last century.

🎧 #Queer #Music #History | #TheClicks (clit x dicks dontcha know) recorded #JustinTimberlake's "Cry Me A River" (2007). I was selling CDs to "gay" bookstores; there was one or more in every city then (no more). Their CD made nary a ripple in the US mainstream (they're from Canada), but the #LGBTQ+ CD buyers loved em to death and supported the band.

#LucasSilvera is the #trans man out front—#OUT front—a first for a major label release. #TommyBoy records did that.

Naughty by Nature - 19 Naughty III

This is their 3rd album and my personal favorite. It’s got the classic hiphop anthem “Hip Hop Hooray”, plus several other great tunes like “Written On Ya Kitten” and “Take It To Ya Face”.

Turn it up for track 2, “Ready for Dem”. A bouncy flow with infectious beats and humorous lyrics like “never short on loot cuz I got a fat grip”. Featuring guest artist Heavy D too.

Queen Latifah released her debut album All Hail the Queen November 28, 1989
I was a DJ in college at the time and played this one a lot.

I’ll always remember hearing “Hello, I’m Queen Latifah, how you doin’?” for the first time. Classic.
