Number One With A Bullet: Adam Lambert Makes Music History

Adam Lambert's Trespassing is officially the #1 album in the country. Not only does this confirm that Adam is no American Idol flash-in-the-pan, but he's made music history:

He's become the first out male artist to have a #1 album.

Other gay performers such as Elton John and George Michael have hit #1, but only before they came out, and they haven't managed that honor since.

It's been a long road to #1, but thanks to a loyal fan base, a stellar album, and Adam's enthusiastic promotion, he's now in a class by himself. Congrats!

Terry Guy and The Models- People Piss Me Off

This is the official music video for "People Piss Me Off," the second single by LGBT music band Terry Guy and The Models.

Available On CDBaby, and iTunes and Amazon.

The video was filmed outside gay rights campaigner Derek Jarman's house in Dungeness, Kent, whom the music video has been dedicated to, as well as two other locations in South-East London. The black and white footage, that reveals Terry Guy walking through a derelict place, symbolises the end of the world, what will happen if human beings continue to hurt each other in the way they're currently doing so, if we continue to discrimniate, judge and fight each other.

"Mad About You" by Telling on Trixie (Belinda Carlisle cover song)

From "Ugly, Broke & Sober," Telling on Trixie's sophomore album.

Available On iTunes

The footage filmed at Red Gorilla Music Fest in Austin at the Chuggin' Monkey, Music Gorilla at Spin in Austin, and at the "Ugly, Broke & Sober" CD release party filmed at Sullivan Hall, NYC. "Mad About You" is Telling on Trixie's one and only cover song, remade with permission.

Telling on Trixie gives a darker take on Belinda Carlisle's wonderfully sugary pop hit. Shot, directed and edited by Julian Rad of Works Productions. Wonka Vision Magazine review: "Guitarists Brad Small and Tommy Kessler showcase their diversity within, from the searing solo that sears across the heavy hitting cover of Belinda Carlisles Mad About You, to their lilting work on the warm and breezy Crash Me Up, and on to the driving, new wave fired title track. Soaring rock, power ballads, lovely introspective numbers—the boys shine on them all. As does the rhythm section, whose tightness and self-assured performances underlie every song on the set....Nicoletto himself excels across Broke, but arguably reaches his soulful apex on Mad About You and his neo-soul apotheosis on the hard rock A.N.F.O. With a set full of powerful melodies and a diverse enough sound to please both pop and rock fans, Ugly, Broke & Sober has it all and then some."

BC-Three - Don't Let Them Tell You Who You Are!

B.C. Cliver's a hot butch musician who's made a home in San Francisco who attributes much of her love of music back to her parents, who would sing around the house. Drawing from a plethora of musical styles and after being operatically trained, Cliver found her passion in rock. In her interview with SheWired, Cliver talks about her parents, her training, and her band, B.C. Three.

This is the video for BC-Three's song "Don't Let Them Tell You Who You Are!" It is all about not listening to other people's negative opinions and being true to yourself. We had a blast making this video and we hope you enjoy it. Please share :) Disclaimer: No Actual Bigots were filmed in this video.

Jewish rapper Y-Love comes out publicly as gay

In a move that he admits could cost him some fans, New York rapper Yitz “Y-Love” Jordan, considered "the first black Jewish MC," has come out publicly as a gay man of color.

"I feel like I have wasted years of my life worrying that my ‘public reputation’ will be negatively impacted by my identity," Jordan said in a statement. "Now that I'm over 30, I simply can't care as much about what people think, despite the prospect of alienating the community I dedicated my life to as an artist and a man. My hope is it will open their eyes – and hearts."

Although he's now publicly talking about it, Jordan tells Out magazine in an interview that he's "never been conflicted about my sexuality ... Any conflicts that have come up in my life have come up because of other people's homophobia. I've always known when to be in the closet and when not to."

Jordan is of Puerto Rican and Ethiopian descent, and converted to Hasidic Judaism in 2000 before going on to study at Jerusalem’s Ohr Somayach yeshiva.

The artist has melded hip-hop style with what he calls "Jewish values," leading to a fan base of "conservative-minded hip-hop fans," he said.

Those same fans "have listened to me to be their ‘voice of Jewish values’ for so long that I'm sure some will huff off in disgust at seeing the real me," Jordan admitted. "What will not change is my art. My rhymes will still be 20 percent Hebrew and full of Jewish quotes as always. I also fully expect that these people who no longer find me 'appropriate' will be replaced by fans who can truly appreciate the real me - with a particular emphasis on LGBT hip-hop fans, who I think will be able to identify with my struggle and triumph and have few out artists and role models.”

He hopes his new album, "Focus on the Flair," will offer those LGBT fans of hip-hop a new voice, as Jordan's "ready to live authentically."

"I'm ready to find a husband," Jordan continued. "I'm ready to live without fear of being outed or the stress of keeping my whole self from people. And I've waited too long to do that.”

He's also released a video for his first new single from his new album, "Focus on the Flair." The video is wild. It shows Y-Love rapping in his usual attire, but then he also appears smooth-faced and in female drag as well as a dancing Hasidic man in fur hat (a shtreimel, which is usually only worn after a man is married) and traditional garb.

Tom Gabel, Lead Singer of Punk Band 'Against Me!', Comes Out as Transgender

Tom Gabel, lead singer of the band Against Me!, is coming out as transgender, Rolling Stone reports:

Gabel, who has dealt privately with gender dysphoria for years, will soon begin the process of transition, by taking hormones and undergoing electrolysis treatments.

Gabel will eventually take the name Laura Jane Grace, and will remain married to her wife Heather. "For me, the most terrifying thing about this was how she would accept the news," says Gabel. "But she's been super-amazing and understanding."

Gabel only told a handful of family and friends about her plan to transition before talking to Rolling Stone. Because this is the first time a major rock star has come out as transgender, the singer made a point of speaking openly about it. "I'm going to have embarrassing moments," says Gabel, "and that won't be fun. But that's part of what talking to you is about – is hoping people will understand, and hoping they'll be fairly kind."

Featuring the best crew a captain could dream of: his Majesty the Gay Pimp himself Jonny McGovern and, as his sailor boytoy, Brad Cheyne; world-sensation and sensational Drew Droege (aka "It's recently come to my attention" Chloë Sevigny) as the Madam; super-talented Julie Goldman as the drag-king bouncer; the hilarious Tanya McClure as the one-eyed barmaid; beautiful sailorgirl Brandy Howard; badboy patron James Hawkins; Sebastian Thomas Johnson as the hunky backroom trick (real tats included); and dreamy Wandering Sailor, Jonah Wharton.

Special thanks to badass drummer Alexandra Vega and (one-time) bass-punk Ludovic Desvignes.

And of course, KINGSHIP's singer/songwriter Chris Hall and pianist/composer Paul Leschen. Category:

Ochi - I Pledge Allegiance

This video is a protest against the brutality, prejudice, injustice, and ignorance faced by gays, lesbians, bi-affectionate, and transgender people. It highlights the abuses, deaths, and unfair court verdicts reminding us that injustice anywhere is a treat to justice everywhere. No one has true human and or civil rights until we are all have rights.

Solomon - "Life Goes On" Released

Following the success of his sophomore 2011 EP, “The Love Rocker Project,” New York's genre-bending out singer, songwriter and rapper Solomon releases his latest single, “Life Goes On...” via his label, SolRay Records. Written and co-produced by Solomon, “Life Goes On...” finds the artist comfortably delving deeper into the dance genre as he sings about unrequited love and the inevitability of moving on. “Life Goes On...” with a Radio Edit, Extended Mix and digital booklet will be available May 29th on iTunes, Amazon.com and various music retailers worldwide.

2011 saw Solomon debut on LOGO’s NewNowNext PopLab with his music video “Wit Us U Can’t...” featuring rapper Bry’Nt, a summer tour opening up for Deborah Cox, the cover of Bent Magazine, his California anthem, “West Coast !$#” infiltrate dance floors with remixes by Jason Nevins and Digital Dog, covering Robyn’s “Dancing On My Own” and more. But there is more the defiant musician wants to do this year besides achieve independent success- he wants to continue to be a voice for LGBT youth.

Beginning in early 2008 as an out rapper and singer invited on Eminem’s SiriusXM Shade45 morning show, San Diego, California native Solomon continues to speak openly about his sexuality while garnishing a large internet following of fans he calls Love Rockers. “It’s important I am forever honest with my Love Rockers,” the artist states. “I didn’t have anyone to look up to when I was 12 and 14, so I feel I have this inherited responsibility to be their voice. To assure them that we’re pretty dope and that it’s cool to be you.”

Having overcome a rough childhood filled with drug addiction, school fights and his fathers incarceration, Solomon found refuge in writing music and rapping. With his earlier rap mixtapes littered with dark metaphors and graphic narrative, Solomon continues to pour his feelings in his latest single, “Life Goes On...”

“When I write a song, the shit has to be real. Never contrived. I can’t write about something I’ve never felt. This new single I find myself being vulnerable again. I hate to admit it, because I come off so soft, but man- I have feelings too.”

When asked about being a rapper and a singer, Solomon replies, “I’m an artist. There are days I rap and days I sing. Just so happens this new single is a dance single. I was in the studio last week and recorded two rap songs. They’ll be out by the end of the summer. On the flip side, I just got asked to feature my vocals on this French DJ’s new single. I love music. I hate boxes.”
