Queer Music News: George Michael to go way gay, but with whom?
http://www.dallasvoice.com/queer-music-news-george-michael-gay-album-1085927.html

The word is out that our favorite former sometimes-Dallasite George Michael is working on an album collaborating with a specific group of musicians. NME reported that “The singer, who is due to tour the UK in the winter with a 41 piece symphonic orchestra, had previously revealed that his next studio album would be made with a collective of gay artists, in an effort to ‘correct the damage’ his recent behavior had caused in ‘letting young gay kids down.’”

Now I’m a fan of Michael, but you know, I was let down too by his behavior and I KNOW his music. Our 19 year-old intern didn’t know much about Michael post-Faith. Come on, George. Us older fans want some of your attention, too.

ANYWAY, with his new vow to work with “either gay or gay friendly artists – possibly unknown ones,” I wondered who would be a good match. Minus bigger queer stars, I went from mid-range down:

...
Uh Huh Her — Sort of like the Pet Shop Boys of the lesbian crowd,

...
Big Freedia — I’m not sure if Michael could handle Freedia’s big booty bounce

...
Adam Lambert — This might be an easy call, but I think these two could be phenomenal together

...
Diamond Rings — I think Michael could win with Diamond Rings writing his songs

...
Sia — As much as I’d want to say yes to this, I think any collab between them would be a little odd.
