Shamir – “Gay Agenda”

Fuck. Yes. Philadelphia-based multi-disciplinary artist just released a gorgeous new video directed by Jenny He for his incredibly powerful new song, “Gay Agenda.” Shamir’s unique, melodic voice cuts through the fuzzy noise and layers of synths to condemn socially constructed illusions of reality and proudly rejects heteronormativity and embraces queerness. A true anti-assimilationist anthem. Love it.

“Gay Agenda” is a song about radical acceptance internally and externally. We are only leasing our lives, so we gotta make it our own.

About Shamir:
His self-titled album was released in 2020 and he just published his first book But I’m a Painter this summer. Shamir also partnered with the AI design studio Urbancoolab to launch the Bipolar Butterfly clothing line which donates a portion of proceeds to the National Alliance on Mental Illness. Is Shamir the coolest person ever? Likely.
