New Music Friday: Songs You Should Listen to This Weekend (July 15)

These are the best songs to listen to over the weekend!

It’s a brand-new week, which means that there’s plenty of new music from LGBTQ+ artists and allies for queer people to vibe with throughout this weekend.

This week is even more special given that we just celebrated Non-Binary Day on Thursday. From Demi Lovato to G Flip, lots of non-binary artists released new songs this week to celebrate their big day. When it comes to Lovato and G Flip specifically, though, they chose to take a more in-depth approach to show their pride of being non-binary. Times are hard, and they’re not pretending that everything’s just glitter and rainbows right now.

In the meantime, this week also marks a big comeback for Lizzo, a loud and proud LGBTQ+ ally who released her brand-new album Special. Her latest album even includes the queer-inclusive song “Everybody’s Gay,” which she had recently promoted along RuPaul’s Drag Race season 14 star Kornbread “The Snack” Jeté. Otherwise, Latin superstar Ricky Martin has also released his second-ever EP, Play, which includes a brand-new single and sexy music video.

Scroll through to listen to this week’s best new releases from LGBTQ+ musicians and allies.
