Queer Jams of the Week: New Music From Kehlani, Chappell Roan, Omar Apollo & More
Welcome to Queer Jams of the Week, featuring new pride music from Kehlani, Chappell Roan and more.
With a grooving melody filled to the brim with light guitar licks and pounding rhythms, “Spite” follows Apollo as he navigates through the confusing, often infuriating emotions of being in a long distance relationship. Giving a much gentler tone than RKS’ last song “Superstar,” the track sees lead vocalist Ela Melo trying to find her place in the new normal, pleading alongside Musgraves for just a hint of clarity amid a confusing bit emotional drama. Over a relentless beat complete with a ’90s R&B-style guitar lick, Jordy expertly calls out the “nepo baby” with a “mouth always bigger than the wallet” in a set of devastating lyrics: “I wouldn’t want it even if you paid me.”
