It’s Friday, the inboxes are finally quiet and the club lights are flicking on — and «Outed on Friday!» has your official weekend soundtrack. From glittering club pop to cheeky seasonal singalongs and heart-on-sleeve balladry, this week’s roundup promises drama, hooks and plenty of reasons to hit replay.
Five sizzling new singles are poised to crash the LGBTQ Music Chart next week, and they’re not asking politely. If you’ve been hoarding votes like a miser with coins, now’s the time to spend them — your fave could rocket from barroom banger to chart-topper with one decisive click. Voting opens every Monday at the LGBTQ Music Chart site; make it part of your Monday ritual and give that track the shove it needs.
Now it’s revealed that Ephram St. Cloud are this summer substitute on the LGBTQ Music Chart, don’t panic — the show is still the place for exclusive spins, hot takes and the kind of commentary that can make a sleeper track blow up overnight. It’s the queer music fix your weekend deserves: tune in, turn it up and bask in the chaos.
Two weeks ago we rolled out our brand‑new submission form, making the entire process far easier — and far fairer. Your priority points now depend on where you follow us, with the highest‑scoring artists placed first in line for Outed on Friday! Every point is verified: if you claim to follow us on Instagram, we check your profile — and if you’re not actually following, you simply don’t get the points. You can’t change your score afterwards, but any new follows will count towards your next submission, provided you’re still with us when we calculate.
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.
Lorenza Wildcard is an award‑winning singer‑songwriter and solo powerhouse known for her electrifying “volthemic” sound — a genre‑smashing fusion of indie rock, post‑punk grit and garage‑pop bite. With distorted guitars, anthemic choruses and raw, emotionally charged vocals, she balances intensity with vulnerability, transforming personal expression into something bold, cinematic and universally resonant. Want real visibility?Submit your track. Don’t rely on a 1% miracle.
«Faller Langsomt» («Falling slowly») is a deeply emotional Norwegian‑language release from Jens Daniel (Jens Daniel Augestad Halvorsen), marking his debut on the Outed On Friday! playlist. With its slow‑burn intensity and heartfelt delivery, the track captures the quiet ache of falling apart piece by piece, blending vulnerability, atmosphere and melodic strength into a striking first appearance that leaves a lasting impression. Submit your song and boost your chances to almost 99% — or wait on that tiny 1% gamble. Your call.
The Los Angeles‑based queer pop singer‑songwriter is back on the Outed On Friday! playlist, delivering another dose of heartfelt, hook‑driven emotion. Jordy’s music speaks straight to the heart, and his devoted global fanbase can’t get enough — every release hits with honesty, warmth and that signature pop sparkle that keeps listeners coming back. Artists, take note — not waiting. Your song could be next. Don’t gamble on 1%.
MKSM is back on the playlist every queer artist wants to land — Outed On Friday! — with his powerful new single «Was Liebe Wirklich Kann» («What can love change?»). He asks the big questions: what happens when love becomes visible, and how much courage does it take to stand up for yourself and for someone else? With his first German‑language EP of the same name, MKSM dives into identity, origins, queerness, self‑doubt and the longing for belonging. At its core is the focus track — a personal declaration of love and the story of a slow, often painful but beautifully honest arrival. Submit your song and boost your chances to almost 99% — or wait on that tiny 1% gamble. Your call.
Omar Rudberg returns to the Outed On Friday! playlist with «Careless», a dreamy pop‑R&B escape built on letting go, living in the moment and embracing the wild freedom of youth. After teasing the track live and turning it into a fan favourite across social media, «Careless» arrives as the start of a fresh new chapter, shimmering with laid‑back confidence and summer‑ready vibes. Artists who submit get heard. Artists who wait get 1%. Choose wisely.
Our playlist refreshes every Friday — some of this week’s featured singles might appear later depending on release timing across Amazon Music, Apple Music, YouTube and Spotify. Follow the playlist on Apple Music or Spotify (BackUP – after Spotify unpublished original Outed On Friday playlist) so you don’t miss the moment something becomes your new obsession.
This week’s «Outed on Friday!» is less a bulletin and more a calling: support the artists, vote early, and don’t let the rules trip you up. Whether you’re heading out or staying in, these five releases give you everything from confessional pop to holiday eye-rolls and rousing anthems. Now go on — make it loud. Make it queer. Make it legendary.
