Adam Lambert says queers in music are becoming mainstream
Adam Lambert has spoken about how LGBT+ people in music are becoming mainstream while still maintaining a niche and “subcategory” vibe.
In the time since Lambert’s first release back in 2009, there has been a wave of out artists, including Sam Smith, Janelle Monáe, Olly Alexander, Frank Ocean and MNEK.
Speaking in Rollacoaster magazine, Lambert said that at the beginning of his career that being out in the music industry felt like “uncharted territory” and “scary” but it was exciting because it was the dawn of change.
“A whole niche now”

Adam Lambert covers new issue of Rollacoaster Magazine
Adam Lambert is kicking off 2020 by appearing on the cover of the Spring/Summer 2020 issue of Rollacoster Magazine.
The cover feature includes photography by Bartek Szmigulski and an interview with Bailey Slater. Take a look at the cover below:
In the interview Adam discusses finding inspiration in the past and fellow artists. He says:
“I don’t tend to have a set style, I always like being inspired by something like my dad’s crazy record collection, and remembering the stuff that was played around the house…I started recognising that some of my favourite contemporary artists that I was listening to, were all referencing the past in a really beautiful way and I was inspired by that.
“I love Tame Impala, I think King Princess is super dope. I love everything that Harry Styles is doing I’m like “Whoa! This is really fucking cool!” This is an artist I like that’s sort of doing his own thing, not following a bunch of trends, not getting sucked into people-pleasing, it sounds like he’s doing it for himself and I think that’s a similar path that I’m on”
During the interview, Adam opens up about his latest release Velvet talking about how he had a greater creative control than his previous records.
“With Velvet, I really wanted to turn a corner and go somewhere sonically very different than I had been. I kind of wanted to do it on my own terms and not have to compromise with all the creative side of it.
