We've got company! This week we welcome pop recording artivist, Mila Jam. We started from the beginning by learning about Mila's childhood all the way through her 20+ years of being an artist. From coming into her identity to owning her autonomy and the differences she encountered, to the amazing collaborations she has experienced (hello Chaka Khan!) and how awful dating is in New York.
Bad Queer opinions include stud for stud vs. butch for butch dating, LGBTQ dating apps being problematic and disclosure.
