fun fact: every time a trans man comes out (to another person, to the world, or to only himself) the world gets a little brighter and more rich

black transmasc musicians to know

Dreamer Isioma (they/he; if you've heard the song Sunset Drive that's them! he's made some really good Afrofuturist-inspired stuff like Dumb In Love With You, & they've literally just posted a new visualizer at time of writing this)

Glenn Copeland (he/him; beloved Black trans man elder! he's also going to be starring in a children's TV show, a la Mr. Rogers! if you like more spiritual-influenced music his stuff is REALLY beautiful and gorgeous)

Anjimile (they/them and he/him; EVERYONE SHOULD LISTEN TO ANJIMILE! Like You Really Mean It is a delightful song from his new stuff, Animal is a really really good dark song about the dehumanization of Black people & the whole album its from is amazing).

Malaika Mfalme (they/them; Good Man is from an album dedicated to their deceased partner Yasmin, & if you have Feelings about grief, the song Imagine will hit you like a fucking freight train)

PLEASE feel free to add on more artist, or specific songs from any of these artists you enjoy!! Happy Juneteenth!

Dua Saleh (they/them) !! Rap/Pop/R&B artist

I LOVE their debut EP Nūr ut they recently came out with an album Of Earth & Wires

There is still time. It's never too late to transition.

Every time a trans man comes out, the world becomes brighter.

An all-transmasc Ironman trio just won 3rd place in a major men's triathlon, beating over 200 other men's teams. 🏊‍♂️🏃‍🚴‍♂️ Trans men win men's competitions all the time, but nobody pays attention because it doesn't fit the mainstream narrative. I think we should celebrate their victories, too! 🏆

friendly reminder that surgery scars are ATTRACTIVE AF

i don’t think i ever posted the scan of this one <3

A Japanese transmasc rapper named Cocona has become a Brand Ambassador for Gucci. GUCCI!!!! And he’s in Milan Primavera, a really important and fancy fashion show, strutting around with a buzz cut and all his piercings and visible top surgery scars and I’m like genuinely so emotional about this I need all of you to see this!!!!!!! 🥹🥹🥹

He has been out for about 2 months, and in the time since his bandmates (as he is part of a musical group) have been nothing but extremely loving and supportive towards him, even rebranding from “Xtraordinary Girls” to “Xtraordinary Genes” as a way to support him :D

They now refer to him as their little brother and pet his buzz cut like a cat :]

I hope this can serve as proof to any trans people who may see this that there will always, ALWAYS be people out there who see you as you are and love you for it! It just takes a little time.

past couple of weeks have been a wild ride of emotions

but I wouldn’t change a thing
