Tracks on Side A, include Sister Sledge’s “We Are Family”, a musical reminder that everyone who is LGBT+ is part of a community that looks out for each other, Candi Staton’s “Young Hearts Run Free”, a song so resonant with the community for its message of liberation and freedom, and more tunes sure to get you up and dancing.

Opening with Lizzo’s anthem for the charismatic, “Juice”, it’s time to feel yourself and be celebrate the skin you’re in. Side B also includes Tegan and Sara’s timeless track “Closer”, a song filled with anticipation and fantasy, L Devine & INDIIA’s “Naked Alone”, a sex-positive banger blending R&B elements with funk and pop, along with more modern pop anthems that resonate with the community.
