Blanco's Pride takeover includes queer artists and allies with a "spirit of resistance." It features "Don Dada" by Cakes da Killa & Proper Villains, "Rainbow Dragon" by Keiynan Lonsdale, and "Daddy Like" by Dorian Electra.
"Cakes da Killa's raps are hard-hitting, saucy, and sassy. He is a ruthless rapper from New York and is one of the originators of the queer rap genre. Cakes continues to push the envelope of hip-hop even further with 'Don Dada,' a song that fuses house music, hardcore rap, and proud proclamations that Cakes is here to change the game," Blanco explained. "Keiynan Lonsdale creates a magical world for us to step into with this song. Proudly living his truth as a Black queer human being, breaking stereotypes left and right, and really breaking outside of the box of society's expectations of who he should be and how he should live. 'Rainbow Dragon' is self-discovery pop at its best."
Blanco continued, "'Daddy Like' sees rising pop star Dorian Electra breaking down and through gender norms as a genderqueer father figure. Turning the theme of 'sugar daddy' on its head, Dorian is flamboyant as well as benevolent, creating a song with juicy punchlines, pushing the boundaries of gender-nonconforming pop music, and most importantly, a bop we can groove to."
