Jon Sugar

Gay Type Thang

A very rare 45 indeed, I am so pleased that Jon sent me one of the last copies of his 1988 early gay rap song.

BALLS

Gay Ric Scott Thompson Sudden Death

Above, some intentionally funny gay rap: Gay Boy Ric and his cassette; Scott Thompson
(formerly of "Kids In The Hall," and an odd group called Sudden Death, and their tape
"Brain Dead" (1995). If anyone can provide a better pic of Gay Boy Ric, I'd love to share it here.

Alan Lett CD

Houston artist Alan Lett is also a talented behind the mixing board,
having produced CDs by Jason & deMarco, Josh Duffy and others.
His pop Christian album "The Noise Next Door" (2004) features a
terrific rap section in the song "From Now On."

QBoy sent me three songs, and I couldn't decide, so made them into a
medley: Q.B.O.Y (Is Just So Fly) / Moxie / Coming Out to Party (2007)

Nice shot from the 2003 Outmusic Awards, where Aaron-Carl announced the honorary
award for Dutchboy. Behind this pic is one of Aaron-Carl and me, and his "Uncloseted" CD
