Artists — This One’s for You: Submission Rules (Yes, They Matter)

Want your song played next Saturday? Submit. Follow the rules. Seriously. Too many promising tracks get bounced for tiny missteps — the number one offence is not having an active BlueSky account. If you’re serious about being heard, get your socials in order and follow the submission checklist to the letter. Artists who skip it get left at the back of the queue while the rule-followers dance past them.

We need to clarify this : Any issues related to the submission or the radio show must be addressed to us via DM on BlueSky (No mention). This applies to any questions about LGBTQ Music Chart radio show as well:  Please refrain from contacting the radio station or the host!

Featured Acts: Who’s Serving This Week

Big change this week: the Outed on Friday! playlist now shows this week’s artist AND last week’s contender. And from Monday, you can vote on both — doubling the drama and giving every track a fighting chance.

Gry E. Sivertsvik — «Vis Fargene»

Gry E. Sivertsvik is an independent Norwegian songwriter at the very start of her journey, crafting every lyric from real life — pain, love, betrayal, survival and the quiet strength it takes to rise after every blow. Her new single «Vis Fargene» («Show Your Colours») tackles duelling fundraisers — one trying to ban Pride flags in schools, the other fighting to keep them flying. Gry stands proudly on the side of showing your colours, loud and clear. This is Gry E. Sivertsvik debut on Outed On Friday! Want real visibility?Submit your track. Don’t rely on a 1% miracle.

Date — «Som en vind»

Date — the beloved schlager band formed in 1993 as Släktingarna and renamed in 1997 after performing as Take That on Sikta mot stjärnorna — has competed in Melodifestivalen three times and built a loyal fanbase, including with their openly gay lead singer. This week, the group has cut ties with a schlager dance organiser after a homophobic comment on Facebook, taking a firm stand against discrimination and showing exactly where they draw the line. This is Date debut on Outed On Friday! Submit your song and boost your chances to almost 99% — or wait on that tiny 1% gamble. Your call.

Agustín Malandra — «Pop Bakudan (Yamete La La La)»

Agustín Malandra is a bold independent gay singer, songwriter and producer blending Pop, Dark Pop, Electronic, Dubstep, Rock and even J‑Pop/K‑Pop into his signature sound. His music is deeply personal, charting his emotional growth and creative evolution while he experiments fearlessly with new styles. Always pushing boundaries, Agustín continues to shape his identity as both a powerful vocalist and a visionary producer. Artists, take note — not waiting. Your song could be next. Don’t gamble on 1%.

Trixie Mattel & Jayelle — «Turn Me On»

Trixie Mattel cranks the camp‑pop energy to full blast as she teams up with Jayelle on their sizzling new single «Turn Me On». The duo spark instant chemistry, singing lines like «You and I are like electricity… powering the club like a battery», turning the track into a neon‑lit, high‑voltage anthem built for late‑night dance floors and pure queer joy. Submit your song and boost your chances to almost 99% — or wait on that tiny 1% gamble. Your call.

Omar Rudberg — «A world like this»

The singer, actor and global pop sensation drops «A world like this», a deeply personal new single offering the first tantalising glimpse into the sound and storytelling of his forthcoming album. Emotional, polished and packed with star power, it sets the stage for a bold new chapter — and fans are already buzzing for what comes next.  Artists who submit get heard. Artists who wait get 1%. Choose wisely.
