Saiyr of Ceraadi Creates Her Soundtrack of Pride

Which songs helped Saiyr during her formative years?

We all have those songs that are forever ingrained in our coming-of-age stories. Songs that gave us hope, played during our first kiss, helped us feel fierce, or simply helped us understand ourselves a little bit better. This is oftentimes particularly true for LGBTQ artists.

Throughout the month of June, and only on PRIDE, LGBTQ+ artists are curating and sharing playlists that reflect their formative years—their Soundtracks of Pride.

Sisters Saiyr and Emaz make up the hip-hop R&B duo Ceraadi, and Saiyr is bisexual. Scroll down to check out Saiyr's playlist and read why she picked each song!
