Pride Month is more than halfway over, but we’re still celebrating all sorts of LGBTQ+ art! That means that we’ve been playing music from some of our favorite queer hitmakers on repeat.

It seems like the ideal time to recommend a queer artist to a friend or fellow reader by letting them know which one you consider to be the best.

Nowadays, we live in an era where so many musicians are open about their sexuality. Think of Hayley Kiyoko (known to many as Lesbian Jesus) and Lil Nas X (who continues to push boundaries every time he releases a new project).

They’re slaying the game, in part thanks to the groundbreaking work of others who came before them. Take Elton John and Melissa Etheridge, for example.

That’s still barely scratching the surface of the incredible pool of talented queer musicians who have graced us with solid-gold hits over the years. The list isn’t complete without the likes of Adam Lambert, Fletcher, Troye Sivan, Janelle Monae, Lady Gaga, Kim Petras, Sam Smith and so many others.

There’s so many artists, and we put together a poll so you could tell us who you consider to be the ultimate LGBTQ+ musician!

Riley Keough joins director Janicza Bravo and A’Ziah King on the red carpet at the premiere of Zola held at DGA Theater Complex on Tuesday night (June 29) in Los Angeles

Other guests at the event included Isis King, Sophie Hall, Mary Lynn Rajskub, Jeremy O. Harris, Arlo Parks, Tanisha Long, and Chelsea Peretti.

Inspired by AZiah‘s viral Twitter thread, Zola centers on a waitress/dancer who is seduced into a weekend of stripping in Florida for some quick cash — but the trip becomes a sleepless 48-hour odyssey involving a nefarious friend, her pimp and her idiot boyfriend.

FYI: Riley wore a black tweed jacket, pink silk jacquard top, and faded denim & silk pant all from Chanel, with Chanel Fine Jewelry. Colman wore a Dolce & Gabbana suit with David Yurman jewelry.
