Nonbinary singer Corook says Republicans can't 'erase transness'
They/them energy is needed more than ever.Corook is the talented nonbinary musician to recently make waves in mainstream media. At a time when LGBTQ+ representation is under attack, the star is using their platform to advocate for equality and inclusion.Im just existing and I think that thats the most powerful thing we can do as trans people, nonbinary people, and queer people. I personally love talking about being nonbinary and singing my songs, Corook tells PRIDE. See on Instagram Corooks viral nonbinary anthem THEY! has earned millions of views on TikTok after the singer shouted they/them energy into a microphone during a recent performance. The clip has even been shared by A-list stars such as Troye Sivan, Jonathan Van Ness, Meghan Trainor, Justin Bieber, and more.I wrote this song when I was finally coming into a joyful place of being nonbinary. After a year of being out, I wrote this extremely joyful song not knowing it would be the hottest topic of American politics.What does they/them energy mean exactly? Its all about loving the skin youre in and not letting outside influences affect your self-worth, which is a common theme thatll be heard on Corooks upcoming album committed to the bit.Its literally just confidence. Its self-acceptance and confidence no matter where youre at in your life. My whole job is to get on stage and yell they/them energy and shake my ass. See on Instagram Although Corook has received a ton of love for the upbeat and inclusive anthem, angry Conservatives have also chastised the song online. However, the hate is only boosting Corooks engagement and pushing the gay agenda even more.Were here. Were queer. Were not going anywhere. There is nothing they can do to erase transness. This is what I have worked for and fought for within my own self to be brave enough to do and Im going to continue with that bravery.Committed to a bit drops this Friday on all platforms.
