This article from bbc radio speaks on the musician Lil Naz X and his outward expansion it to territory uncharted and how it makes the way for others to do so no matter their sexuality. I believe this is a message not wide speared enough and to have it spread by BBC Radio is fantastic.

This article was very informative. I learned about some of the first gay country musicians that spaced the way for artist like LIl Nas X to be accepted today. I learned of The Sweet Violet Boys which we lead to believe recorded the first gay country song. Wilma Burgess was one of the first openly lesbian country singers back in the 1960s. She was unapologetically herself with her music, she made openly gay lyrics. The most intriguing however was Patrick Haggerty who was the lead vocalist, writer, and creator of the queer country group the Lavender Country. They were said to have created the first true queer self titled album Lavender Country. To this day the group has disbanded and regrouped countess of times only to still be touring as one of the greatest queer country music groups ever. Patrick Haggerty still being at the forefront of the group. I relate to this article because I want to be authentic like Wilma Burgess, accepted like Patrick Haggerty and bold like Lil Nas X and Orville Peck. I only aspire to be as successful as them in every aspect of the Music industry that i decide to take by storm, from songwriting to my win entertainment company. This article was not on a major informational resource for audio industry professionals. However it was a very reliable source. It also related very specifically to the LGBTQ+ role in the music industry.

This source seems very legit, it has a writer and different official links on the page. It doesn’t chooses sides and seems to go perfectly with the story line . The source has links to his official site , I’m not exactly sure if that’s showing that it has some type of relation with Brody Ray. I wouldn’t say this website is a major information resource because it’s call I Love Gay so I would think it’s made for Gay people and would be slightly bias in different circumstances.

She’s talented and an exceptional songwriter and artist. The source is very informative on pulling you in and letting you know who the artist is and what she does. A major informational resource for the industry.

This scoop is from https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-news/lovelytheband-fights-for-lgbtq-rights-in-maybe-im-afraid-video-824403/
The Rolling Stone is a monthly magazine. It was founded in San Francisco in 1967, and consider to be one of the most reliable sources of music news. This video is dealing with an important subject that many people, (men and women) are struggling with. I think that "Lovelytheband" is doing the right thing by releasing a video telling a story about a man that all his life has been struggling with his sexuality. It will help a lot of young people and maybe even kids to talk about their issues and leave a truthful life. Thank you, Lovelytheband.

I completely agree with this artists message. It uplifts those being knocked down in not just the entertainment industry but the society of today world wide. This is a credible source and it is used widely in the music industry.

I think this is a very good step forward for the LGBTQ community, and I'm glad its something like Grindr that's doing it. The source is from Grindr itself, which I would consider very reliable, and an information source for those in the audio industry.

I think it would create a safe space for the LGBTQ+ community!
