This morning I had the pleasure of meeting an up and coming artist in the LGBT community.
Chad Douglas has always had a passion for music. In April of 2009 he got serious about his career and began working on creating an album. He has several songs available on iTunes and you can listen to complete songs on his site ChadDMusic.com.
One of my goals is to help my generation, and future generations of youth feel comfortable with themselves – even in the face of bullying and intolerance. Currently, the bullying of LGBT’s is more prominent, but all bullying is unacceptable. We feel there is nowhere to turn and we don’t fit in to this world, so some commit suicide. Suicide is a symptom of an unhealthy society with dangerous communities & oppressive social stigmas. There are bullies in the adult world too, they just take on different forms and appear in different, more mature situations. My music expresses feelings of happiness, love, acceptance, tolerance, and justice – all of which we need more of in our world. Join me on a mission to happiness, because it gets better.” — Chad Douglas
He’s even gone viral. His music video for Ask & Tell deals with the recent repeal of DADT. It is very reminiscent of Madonna’s controversial clip American Life. Check it out below.
This afternoon he tweeted about another upcoming song from his album.
