Episode 64

Beyoncé, "Renaissance" & CisHet Men on the Dancefloor (Guest: DJ R-Tistic)

Published on: 12th August, 2022

Since the release of Beyoncé’s “Renaissance” there’s been an echo of conversation from men who don’t see themselves able to enjoy the work. This isn’t the first time music from women has generated this kind of attention.

On this show we are excited to have DJ R-Tistic with us to discuss how he reads the dancefloor to make decisions about what to play. Also, we want to dive into a discussion on ways to influence party goers to enjoy all music.
