Best queer music of the month

Billboard presents the latest edition of Queer Necessities, monthly LGBTQ-driven playlist where they catch on the latest and greatest bops by queer musicians. This time they've got Sam Smith with "a hard-hitting bass and a beat that's radio-ready" on 'How Do You Sleep?', Charli XCX & Christine and the Queens has "’80s-like drums, infectious synths and robotic breakdowns" on 'Gone', Hayley Kiyoko is back with a moody heartbreaker 'I Wish', Dorian Electra is their, obviously, with their highlight 'Emasculate', as well Rituals of Mine with "gloomy turn on this beautifully haunting and contemplative single" 'Burst' (below).
