We're closing out Pride Month in a big way with Emmy-nominated actress, writer, and producer, Rain Valdez (Razor Tongue; Transparent)! Rain, who describes herself as a heterosexual transgender woman, was born in the Philippines, and initially raised by her incredibly affirming grandparents. Things only changed when she moved with her mother and stepfather to Guam, and discovered that the people there were considerably less accepting than those in her home country. At the age of nineteen, Rain moved on her own to Los Angeles to pursue the arts, and was advised not to disclose to anyone that she was transgender. Believing this was her only path forward, Rain did exactly that for many years. But in June of 2016, bolstered by the beautiful community she'd met working on Transparent, Rain came out publicly in a VICE article. We have a candid conversation about what it's like trying to forge a career in the entertainment industry once it has decided that your particular marginalization is no longer trendy. Also, we discuss the many and varied ways that we as queer people can often feel "in between worlds," and what it means to try to align with your purpose within a system that was not built for you in the first place.Follow Rain on Instagram at @rainvaldez, and check out her website at rainvaldez.com and her company at rainbowrated.com!

All 7 episodes of Razor Tongue are now available for streaming and can be found here: https://www.noweverartists.com/razortongue. The team behind Razor Tongue is currently promoting a For Your Consideration Emmy nomination campaign and we chat with Rain about doing that on an indie scale, her break into the industry, call out culture and more. Also featured in this episode, this week's WCW - Women Crushing It is filmmaker, entrepreneur and Good Media founder, BRITTANY C. GOODEN! Brittany C. Gooden is a multidisciplinary producer who has worked with premier clients in TV, media and advertising including Discovery, Spike, Bustle, Vox and Under Armor. Brittany also takes great pleasure in mentorship and cultivating safe spaces for young girls and women in creative fields. We are honored to feature Brittany this week and her most recent endeavor, the documentary feature film STRANGE BIRD which is a personal story; one about justice; about family and about the truth. The film is currently raising funds to tell the story of Izell "Izzy" Parrott, Brittany's uncle, who was found hanging in from a thirty-foot tree in the woods of her hometown, Glen Falls, NY, after missing for fourteen months. The film will investigate the truth behind Izzy's death aimed at finding justice for Izzy and will do so by examining the complexities of his life. At a time where we as a country are faced with addressing the racial injustices that exists prevalently amongst us, and advocating to hear stories for Black men, women and transpeople, we believe that this film is a super important discourse and for that we are matching the next $500 in donations towards the campaign for STRANGE BIRD. We hope you will join us.

Artist, 42 år. Född och bosatt i Chile. Debuterar som Sommarvärd. Artisten Leopoldo Méndez berättar om en uppväxt med våld, alkohol, flytt till Sverige, kriminella år och passionen för musiken. Leopoldo Méndez berättar att han var rädd för sin pappa när han var liten. Pappan kunde bli extremt arg och slog barnen. Idag kan Leo förstå varför han hade blivit så; tiden var sådan och pappan hade själv vuxit upp med våld. Pappan ville ge sina barn en annan uppväxt, så han såg till att de lämnade Chile när Leo var sju år. Det var svårt när familjen kom till Sverige. De flyttade runt mycket inom Stockholm, mamma kunde inte språket, de hade inte uppehållstillstånd. När de till slut fick det kunde de andas ut och Leo gillade att bo i förorten Farsta. Men när hans faster blev mördad i Chile växte hatet hos Leo. Nu ska jag få dem att lida tänkte han. Han var med om rån, biljakter och bilstölder som 14-åring. Han berättar hur han hamnade i musikens värld och blev artist. Efter hans första hit festade han för mycket med alkohol och droger. Det slutade i en skilsmässa. Efter en vilja till förändring och en tuff tid på behandlingshem blev han nykter. Leo Mendéz känner att han har fått bra saker från både Sverige och Chile. Han ville förändra och påverka saker i Chile och ställde därför upp i valet till borgmästare. Han blev inte vald, men ångrar inte att han försökte.   Om Leopoldo Mendez Deltog i Melodifestivalen i år med bidraget Everyday. Slog igenom under namnet DJ Mendez med låtarna Razor Tongue och Adrenaline. Flydde som barn med sin familj från Chile och växte upp med småkriminalitet och droger i Stockholmsförorten Farsta. Flyttade för tio år sedan tillbaka till födelselandet där han är en stjärna. Har uppträtt där på stora festivaler samt medverkat med sin familj i den egna reality-såpan Los Mendez. Vann 2002 MTV Video Music Award Latinoamerica. Har kandiderat till posten som borgmästare i födelsestaden Valparaiso. 65 tatueringar pryder hans kropp. Producent: David Mehr

Om Nano ligger kvar på listan på söndag får han tårta och lämna listan efter exakt ett år. Mendez, John Lundvik och MIAH är utmanare, men är det en fjärde utmanare om Nano lämnar listan? Så gick det på Svensktoppen (Listan uppdateras kl. 20.30 4 mars) Vi väljer att inte avslöja här om Nano firar 52 veckor på Svensktoppen och får lämna listan av den anledningen. Det hänger ju också ihop med om det då är fyra utmanare på listan vilket vi heller inte avslöjar här och nu. Svaret ges söndag 4 mars eller i programmet här som finns för avlyssning mellan 4 mars kl. 20.30 och 3 april kl. 20.30. Men vi berättar gärna om tre utmanare som prövar lyckan denna veckan. MIAH Jönköpingsartisten vann nästan P4 Nästa 2017. Hon kom tvåa med That's when we all come falling down som nu får chans till revansch som utmanare. John Lundvik  Han är friidrottaren som blev låtskrivare och artist. Som låtskrivare har han tidigare varit svensktoppsaktuell med långköraren When you tell the world you're mine. Nu är han finalklar i Melodifestivalen med My turn. Mendez Han slog igenom med låtar som Estocolmo och Razor Tongue. 2002 kom han tvåa i Melodifestivalen med låten Adrenaline. I år heter hans tävlingsbidrag Everyday.

Совместный, искренний и успокаивающий.Этот микс как продолжение серии "The World keeps on girl", но имеющий свою индивидуальность.  Вместе с Борисом Павленко, мы постарались передать в нём всю красоту этой музыки, которой с каждым днём всё меньше. И ещё, посвятить его одной милой персоне, именно её именем и названа эта работа. С днём рождения тебя, Надя ;)Спасибо что слушаешь, не забываешь.Как и прежде, воздушное начало, c нежнейшим вокалом Cathy Burton. Мечтайте.Приятно слышать качественные наши работы, чувственная композиции от Кати Нетета "Дыши"."So far Away", не новая работа, но уверен, можно вспомнить прекрасные момены в жизни.Когда звучит фортепиано, когда голос настолько гармоничен, что хочется слушать и слушать. Одна из самых красивых работ за эти месяцы. Алёна, огромное спасибо за творчество.Всё теже ребята из Above & Beyond, но в новом звучании. Открытие для меня, нечто новое. Шура Кузнецова и её "Воздух". Особенно нравится chillstep мотивы, прислушайтесь. Обволакивающе.Продолжим погружаться в глубину chillstep саунда, стильный ремикс, стильный и "качающий" звук.Patrick Baker из США и его "Stop Running Away", безусловно имеющий определённое настроение трек.Лиза Марипу, а название мне и правда сложно выговорить.)  Композиция, которая очень тронула. А вы слышали нежность на эстонском?Немного лондонской меланхолии от ORKA. И их акустический фантом. Плавно перенесёмся в Норвегию вместе с Maria Mena. Сэр Людовико Эйнауди. "1+1" это не просто цифры...Многим известный "Wicked Game", но в каком исполнении.Море, волны, шторм. Не смотря на то, что Mr Fogg родом из Англии, "Razor Tongue" не вызывавет ассоциаций с проливным дождём.В заключении, Олафур. Скрипка, цепляю струнки души.Спасибо.   1.Aurosonic & AxelPolo & Cathy Burton - Loving Overflow (Chill Out Mix) 2.Neteta- Breathe 3.Aleksey Beloozerov feat Ange - So Far Away (R.I.B.
