Happy Pride! June is, of course, Pride Month, so LXL and Slacker Radio will be championing some of our favorite LGBTQ artists all month!

Aussie artist Troye Sivan may be young, but he’s been out his entire career, and talked to Music Choice about how he’s trying to bend and break barriers of gay representation in popular media with his songs and videos. He told them.

“I, obviously, I’m LGBTQ myself, and um… just know how that feels, and know what I wanted to see when I was a kid and know what kind of would’ve helped me, I think. And now I’m just trying to be that for someone else, you know?"

See what else Troye has to say about being part of the Queer community in the video above. Oh! And wish him a happy birthday – he turns 23 tomorrow!

Don't you remember in The Pick Of Destiny when Jables leaves the oppressive clutches of a religious home (Meatloaf is his movie dad FTW) , heads to Venice Beach and serendipitously meets beach busker, Kyle Gass?

Now Jack gets to play the Venice Beach music maestro, albeit slightly more agile/chill than the scene where he first meets KG.

Meanwhile beloved virtual band members, 2-D, Murdoch and Russell soak up VB vibes....complete with rollerskates, muscles and hijinks!

Sooo with Gorillaz new album The Now Now on June 29th and The Pick Of Destiny sequel release later this year, wouldn't a Gorillaz cameo make purrrfect sense? *If it does happen, let's remember this moment 🙂
