NOW STREAMING: Queer Rapper James Indigo’s Debut EP, “Married to the Game”.

Jan 7

British-born queer rapper James Indigo is making waves in the industry with his debut EP, Married To The Game. With his sexually explicit lyrics and visuals, Indigo is set to become one of the most talked about gay artists in 2021.

But, it’s not just about sex; he is also setting out to take on the male cishet-dominated rap scene: “Rap music has a reputation for being hyper-masculine and homophobic. We also still live in a very homophobic world. Yes, things have improved somewhat since I was a kid, but we still have so far to go. People just still aren’t used to seeing openly gay musicians doing rap. I’ve been told that gay rappers 'can’t make it'. Even though I would say I’m a rapper that 'happens to be gay', I still refuse to silence my voice for this reason. We need more LGBTQ voices in the rap genre,” said the artist in an interview with Attitude UK.
