Where have you been on my life then?

Boy, don't stop taking me.

Midnight in Brooklyn, you leaned in first.

Vincent released his debut album this summer called There Will Be Tears, which is one of my favorite new albums of the year.

It is just catchy, pop that honestly kind of hits me in the way that Whitney Houston I want to dance with somebody does.

It is just that high energy, amazing vocals, yearning pop music that makes you want to dance.

And obviously, I'm not the only one that feels this way.

As of right now today, that album has been streamed over 10 million times.

And it's also worth noting that that has 10 million streams by an independent artist, right?

So to celebrate this huge achievement, we wanted to reshare our conversation from January of 2020.

This aired on the Luminary app when Vincent's EP came out.

The EP is called The Feeling, and it has a song called Please Don't Fall in Love that I especially adored.

You can drive off in his car, because he sleeps inside a bar,

full of sleep inside his arms. Please don't, please don't. You're going to hear us break down You're going to hear us break down that song

Talking about how intentional every note, every lyric, every music choice is

And then we also talk about what the music industry expects from an artist who is both

black and gay.

So from The Advocate magazine in partnership with Glad, I'm Jeffrey Masters, and this is

LGBTQ and A with Vincent.

The new EP, you co-wrote all the songs on it.

Yes.

All the songs are love songs, I think.
