Wrabel
Stephen Wrabel, better known as Wrabel, is a singer, songwriter, and musician. Some of his tracks chronicled the day-to-day challenges of trans youth. He now collaborates with Klingande on the single “Big Love.” It’s a catchy dance-pop track with a balance of dance floor intensity and acoustic sorrow. The song’s musical texture comes from the soothing piano chords and Wrabel’s emotion-drenched vocals. It sure will alleviate the anxieties of the pandemic.
Angelica Ross
Let’s move on to Angelica Ross. She is an actress, a businesswoman, and a transgender-rights advocate. She is best known for her starring roles in American Horror Story and Pose, but now she’s showing off her incredible singing voice for a good cause. With her new song, “Fierce,” in collaboration with Ultra Naté and Mila Jam, Ross is lifting the transgender community with a track that is as catchy as it is empowering.
Mila Jam
Mila Jam is a transgender singer, songwriter, dancer, actress, and LGBTQ activist. Her song “Faces” emphasizes self-acceptance, inner beauty, and a sense of belonging. ‘Just Sayin’ is the first collaboration between MAKJ, MADDS, and Mila Jam, and it oozes summer vibes and global dance floor appeal. This track is a hymn to days spent at the beach, with long-tailed bass steps that wonderfully accompany the breezy vocals and sun-kissed beat drops.

MNEK
Next on our list is MNEK, real name Uzoechi Osisioma “Uzo” Emenike. He is a singer, songwriter, and record producer. His new song with Joel Corry, “Head & Heart,” has been unstoppable in the charts. For MNEK, it was a change from the usual double duty of making and singing tracks. This time he sang the vocals that were already in Joel’s demo and added a pre-chorus. He considers this song to be a blessing in dark and uncertain times.
Troye Sivan
Last but not least, Troye Sivan. He is a singer-songwriter, actor, and YouTuber. In 2013, three years after coming out to his family, he publicly revealed in a YouTube video that he was gay.

Nonetheless, it topped the charts for weeks.
