Ever noticed how women’s bisexuality in pop music is either fetishised into a sexy gimmick, while bi men seem to vanish altogether? In this episode, we dive into queerbaiting, erasure, and whether the industry is genuinely celebrating bisexual identities—or just cashing in on them.

🎤 How does the music industry shape bisexual representation?

🎶 Are recording artists amplifying visibility or being controlled by industry expectations?

📢 Does queerbaiting exist in music, or is it just repackaged biphobia?

We also discuss bisexual empowerment in music, the songs that have helped us feel seen, and the unique experience of swapping pronouns in lyrics—whether to hide or flaunt bisexual identity. Plus, we break down the 2025 Grammys, possibly the queerest Grammys to date, and what it says about representation right now.
