June is a big for music because it’s both Black Music and Pride Month. Reflecting the huge influence of artists with black and/or LGBTQ identities, I wanted to make an extra effort to highlight black female and queer artists for this installment of Snobette Sounds. In addition, there are ten singles from artists who don’t fall into either category.
In no particular order artists included in this month edition of Snobette Sounds are CHOC, Kamaiyah, Megan Thee Stallion, Mahalia, Rowlene, Nadia Nakai, Teyana Taylor, Sabina Ddumba, Lizzo, Rocky Badd, IAMDDB, Kim Petras, Sophie, King Princess, Demi Lovato, Wasi, Joy Oladokun, St. Vincent, Jess Glynne, Anna Calvi, AH MER AH SU, Wet, Marcella, Olivia Noelle, Lily Allen, Lady Chann, Betty Who, DeadSara, Willemijm May, bulow, Orkid and Tess Violet.
As always if you are every looking for new music by female artists in-between this monthly column, check out my “Bad Bitch Anthems” playlist and keep up with me on Twitter at @ebtheceleb.
