I wanted to shine a light on an artist that i am lucky enough to perform with, Blimes Brixton fka Oh Blimey!  An ubër talented lyricist, singer and manager.  Some phone call that a triple hazard I just call-it pure skill and pure hustle online game.  Hailing from center of San Francisco, transplanted in Los Angeles, Blimes features blasted down this past year touring the world with her BFF Gavlyn with her perseverance and love for lyricism serving the girl.






Before Blimes tripped for a trip all over country we mentioned the woman music, being queer and her #FFF (Five For


Tuesday


) jams now.

Who is Blimes Brixton and why is you incredible?

Hi (LOL)!  I am a tracking artist and musician exactly who runs a label, and dabbles in film-making.  We make contemporary hip-hop songs, together with sing chilled-out really love tracks, and incorporate wavy electronic generation whenever you can. I do believe my drive and eyesight establishes myself besides the package.  I love working hard plus doing so my personal skill set is actually consistently broadening. Shout-out on heads taking for you personally to look at this.  Shout-out to HER for putting this particular aspect together.  All of you hold designers like myself personally motivated to deliver you well quality content to read through and write on.

What was the journey like being released and exactly how will you identify today?

I just be sure to recognize as few as feasible as a result of my understanding of exactly how liquid my own sexuality is actually.  But there’s without doubt that i am queer.  I am with females, I am with men and then have never ever figured out the formula about what i’m going to be attracted to.  I am not sure the way I might expect somebody else to wrap their particular mind around it.  We arrived to me and my buddies as I was 12… We believe that had been 7th class?  I wished my personal spin to secure on women over guys as soon as we played angle the bottle.  And that I came out to my loved ones at 17.  I had my heart broken that year and I was not capable of concealing my personal thoughts in this time.  We refined that heavily through creating songs so becoming sincere about my love to those around me personally was important for the stage of development as a creator and human being.

You’ve not too long ago altered the name from Oh Blimey to Blimes Brixton.  Mention precisely why you changed your name?

A lot of my very long time supporters, pals and fam happened to be all really interested in this therefore I typed something you should break it down on their behalf.  I do believe the finest claimed like this…as individuals we grow and evolve on a frequent foundation.  As creatives we are fortunate enough to see that carry over into our art and into our jobs.  As of late, I have seen that move just take shape in most facet of my life and I also’ve discovered value that change.  The stark reality is, We haven’t decided hyphy, small, freckle-faced, struggle rapping Blimey in quite a long time.  I’m like a woman.  A professional one, with kilometers on my odometer and tales to inform.  When we’re not free to think about our experiences and show the way they’ve molded and changed united states subsequently we stay flat.  Thus, i am significantly more than happy to progress into another section in my own very humble adventure with all of of you as an evolved type of the musician I became prior to.

How can it feel so that you can end up being a queer musician when you look at the songs company?

To tell the truth, it isn’t effortless.  Everyone is really safeguarded due to their passions.  The hip-hop climate is actually tight incase it isn’t a discussion of sex, their sex, or skin tone (that we’m maybe not crazy at, it’s genuine).  They are insights: In a period of time in which creativeness is actually operating a lot of people, people are seeking reasons to discredit (other) writers and singers.  I’ve battled with being away and singing about my sexuality for a time because when I’ve experienced, to a lot of hetro-identifying people, a queer singer getting comfy and vocal continues to be dangerous and controversial.  Men and women don’t want to use the threat to express they cosign you until some other person does.  If you ask me it looks like we are now living in a social weather that is nervous getting their own sexuality questioned so when direct folks put their attention within my songs, my eyesight, my brand, they operate that “risk”.  But shout-out towards folks that perform take that threat and truly leave their very own individual style shape the things they really screw with.




I never ever chosen to a target an LGBTQ market.  I’ve wanted to attract people widely, regardless of what they determine, because that’s whom We surround me with.  My personal group works the gamut of numerous lifestyles precisely why would we not need in order to make a thing that the individuals we run with can relate to?  This is a giant element of my personal rebrand and growth…i do want to link.  I do want to make music people feels on significant level, not something that informs an account this is certainly specific if you ask me and just me personally.  All those things being stated, it’s still truly a relief addressing perform LGBTQ activities.  I really like it.  Everyone loves knowing that my personal market has actually one less protect up against me personally.  We have lots of really love and admiration in regards to our area.

In no certain order…
