Il disco di Mykki Blanco “Mykki” esce oggi, ve lo ricordiamo con l’ultimo singolo My Nene uscito questa settimana. In una bellissima chiacchierata, ha raccontato a The Fader ogni traccia del suo nuovo lavoro. Di My Nene ha detto:
“My Nene” is one of those songs where I get to play with gender roles. As a queer artist, sometimes on a certain song I on purpose want to play with universal things. I on purpose want to make sure that I use wording that doesn’t gender what I do so that it can have a universal appeal. “My Nene” is one of those songs where I’m using words that could be applied affectionately to a man or a woman, and I’m doing it on purpose. For me I’m definitely talking about a guy, that’s my baby, that’s my nene, but through the wording and through not gendering it, also a straight guy or straight woman could listen to that song and completely identify with it.
