PREVIEW: Hip-hop singer Yaysh is feeling like a Boss for Pride.

Ray A-J June 15, 2018

Pansexual Hip-hop artist Yaysh releases her latest single, in time for pride.

BOLD AND quirky Hip-hop artist Yaysh has released her latest single Boss, on June 14.

The openly pansexual singer, and Shambhala Buddhist, aims to motivate listeners to find confidence in themselves, with her new single.

About the release, Yaysh says: “I wrote Boss to inspire listeners to take the reins of life and have fun. It pays homage to the history of the LGBTQ community and the bravery of people who continue to stand firm in their truth, despite ongoing adversity.

Created in San Francisco, the gay capital of America, the track’s accompanying video depicts a joyous picture of self expression and a celebration of the LGBT+ community. The video sees Yaysh at a street party, embracing freedom and rejoicing alongside Drag Queens, go-go boys, lesbians and gay men.

Having made her debut with a string of 12 singles this year, Yaysh is the newest addition to female hip-hop artists in the industry. “Being a female in hip-hop is certainly a challenge because it’s a male-dominated, misogynistic industry with a lot of people that are not that woke,” the artist said, regarding her position in the industry.

The track is available to listen to via YouTube, and will be available to stream or purchase via Spotify, Amazon, ITunes and Pandora later on this month.
