One Step At the Time

b'Whether we\\u2019re talking about a country\\u2019s march towards gender equality or one\\u2019s own personal progress, it always takes some effort. Latoya, or Toya K, is a singer-songrwiter from Namibia and she explains what she had to go through on a personal level, as well as what her experience has been as a queer artist in her home country. These things have in common that progress doesn\\u2019t always happen as fast as you\\u2019d want but rather one step at the time.\\n\\nIt\\u2019s been a treat to have Toya on the show. From the day we first met we knew this just had to happen and what better time to promote a friends art than during the QS Summer of Sound. Latoya hopes people learn something at her life shows and hopefully that also goes for listening to this podcast episode.\\n\\nBecome a Patron through https://patreon.com/queersounds\\n\\nFlashback Track: Nina Simone \\u2013 Don\\u2019t Let Me Be Misunderstood\\nQueer Artist Spotlight: Brenda Fassie \\u2013 Vuli Ndlela\\nBest Live Experience: Troye Sivan \\u2013 Youth\\nMusical Feature: Toya K \\u2013 On Time\\n\\nShownotes\\n\\nToya K\\u2019s info: https://linktr.ee/toyak \\n\\nGet in touch through https://QueerSounds.com/Contact\\n\\nAlso Available through Spotify and Apple Podcasts'
