Happy Pride Month, everyone!
June is a month of protest, celebrating LGBTQ culture and heroes, loving and accepting ourselves and each other, and elevating the voices of the community.
With music deeply ingrained in queer spaces, no Pride celebration is complete without a banging playlist, so we at Skiddle have collated the best tracks to soundtrack our month.
Since many Pride playlists focus on classics like ‘I’m Coming Out’, ‘I Will Survive’, and ‘Vogue’, we’ve taken a slightly different approach. We’ve hand-picked the biggest, baddest, and most danceable LGBTQ songs by the likes of Honey Dijon, Queen Bey, Charli XCX, The Blessed Madonna, and SOPHIE.
Here are the best gay anthems you should be spinning at your Pride pre-drinks and afterparty. Or... just the entirety of June! Find the full playlist towards the bottom of this page.
BREAK MY SOUL - Beyoncé
What an album Renaissance is. Brilliant. Incredible. Amazing. Show-stopping. Spectacular. ‘BREAK MY SOUL’ with its “I don’t give a f*ck” attitude, groove, and euphoric piano became an instant gay anthem in our opinion. Not to mention the entire album is a homage to house music’s black queer roots. There may or may not be another Renaissance track on the playlist…
Work - Honey Dijon feat. Dave Giles II, Cor.Ece & Mike Dunn
Seemingly created for vogueing and destroying dancefloors with your friends, ‘Work’, is simply irresistible. Taken from Queen of House Honey Dijon’s Black Girl Magic, we’ve been obsessed with it since its drop in 2022.
Von dutch - Charli XCX
Modern icon Charli XCX just had to be on our playlist. It’d be a crime if she wasn’t. A year on from the momentous Brat reshaping the zeitgeist, we added its pulsating lead track, along with her adrenaline-surging ‘Vroom Vroom’, since everyone at the Pride pre-drinks will be singing along.
I Will Survive - Eric Kupper mix
An anthem for those who’ve survived whatever life has thrown at them, ‘I Will Survive’ will always be a Pride classic. Breathing new life into one of the most classic Pride songs, this remix makes us want to hit the dancefloor and sing our hearts out ASAP.
Sick Bitch - LSDXOXO
Taken from the Philadelphia-born and Berlin-based icon's third EP Dedicated 2 Disrespect from 2021, 'Sick Bitch' contains everything you'd want from a record during Pride. Dirty, delicious, and driving, this one’s shameless and addictive.
Immaterial - SOPHIE
We could never forget about the visionary trans icon SOPHIE. Sweet, legendary, and an all-around banger, ‘Immaterial’ is just a slice of the incredible music SOPHIE left behind. RIP, SOPHIE.
IT GIRL - Aliyah's Interlude
Attitude, attitude, attitude! Aliyah's Interlude first burst onto our radars in 2020, before unleashing this banger in 2023. Just take your pick from this one as every line delivers. “How you mad at me 'cause I'm c***? B**ch. How you mad at me 'cause I run sh*t?” What a debut…
mr useless - Shygirl, SG Lewis, Club Shy
A retro banger for a modern age, 'mr useless' is Shygirl at the peak of her powers. Joined by SG Lewis and Club Shy, this anthem has been consistently in our playlists since it dropped last year.
Free Yourself - Jessie Ware
A phenomenal song from a phenomenal album, Jessie Ware killed this one. The song champions confidence and individuality while literally telling us to free ourselves. It’s the perfect gay anthem.
Pillow Princess - TAAHLIAH remix
The anthem for all the pillow princesses out there. Club-ready, euphoric, and hard-hitting all in one, you can’t beat a bit of TAAHLIAH.
Rush - Troye Sivan
Sexy, summery, youthful, fun, and infectious, ‘Rush’ encapsulates the euphoria and freedom many feel during Pride from one of the biggest LGBTQ+ heroes out there.
Strut - Elohim & Big Freedia
About the track, Elohim said, "'Strut' is a daily reminder to all of us, myself included, that the power we hold within ourselves is infinite." Big Freedia also said the track is about "owning your attitude no matter who you are." What more could you want from your Pride songs?
Smalltown Boy - ABSOLUTE.Rework
Another absolute (pun intended) pride classic to round it all off, as we have ABSOUTE.'s reworking of the Bronski Beat anthem for a new generation. It's the perfect dancefloor jam to get all in your feels with.
This is just a taste of the LGBTQ songs on our Pride playlist. Check out the full playlist below which also features Kylie, Slayyyter, COBRAH, Shygirl, Scissor Sisters, Britney, I. JORDAN, and more.
