As a whe gay DJ wh a ep passn for creatg and participatg LGBTQ nightlife, I ntue the personal and llaborative work of beg a better anti-racist ally and dismantlg all aspects of whe/cis/hetero/patriarchal love, The Prey.

” Other songs receive queer anthem stat for tongue--cheek nods to g out (Diana Ross’s “I’m Comg Out”) or more straightforward referenc to gay cisg (Village People’s “YMCA”).
