UK’s Top Gay Porn Star Releases His First Commercial Album

(GayWebSource.com – Gay News & Press Network) – Posted by Jake Simpson – TheGayUK.com
Mickey Taylor is arguably the UK’s leading gay porn star after a hugely successful couple of years making movies for the biggest studios in Europe and North America.

He is now one of the most in demand performers currently working across the globe and later this month he see’s the realisation of his first full length album of music which is the culmination of a lot of hard graft and we don’t know how he found the time.

You will know Mickey from such films as Ruined, Hangin’, The Hooker Stories franchise and the hugely successful Fame Game as well as many others of course. This 6′, 22yo sexually versatile Brit lad with over 90 tattoos and a stunning 8″ appendage is a very established musician and trained dancer not only does he write his own music but he also writes for other performers too who love his songs.

Other porn stars such as Dean Monroe and Colton Ford have of course moved into music but that has always been when they are retiring from the adult industry and moving on what is great about Mickey is that he is flying high with his music career whilst still totally at the top of the porn game becoming a double industry threat. Last year at the Prowler British Porn Awards he won one third of all the trophies on offer including Best Porn Star of the Year. Our staff writer Paul Stag sat down with Mickey to get the lowdown on his album, his influences and his plans for his future music career.

“So I’ve been writing this album for over a year now, I’ve gone through different ideas and concepts in that time and i wrote over 100 songs for this album at first i thought i wanted to produce a very earthy, emotional album but then i went against it and thought about going through a more club vibe. There is some Dubstep, Club anthems, EDM, Pop and a few ballads. We even changed the name and artwork for the album once or twice but I’m very happy with it now and it reflects myself and what i want the album to say.

“The Album is called “Puppets Lament” and i went with that title because it really does reflect my emotions and feelings while writing this. As a model and entertainer its hard not to feel like a puppet or used for a corporate or companies personal gain. I wanted to say with this album that this in some ways is how a few people in my industry feel but its also about gaining my independence and finally being able to charge off on my own and find my style and what I want to do and say in the world. So this album basically expresses the pain but also the beauty of finding myself and being able to be me and do what i want now that I’m in a point in my career where I’m hired for who I am not what they can mold me to be.

“I wanted to make the album as versatile as humanly possible. At the end of the day this was a learning process and I had never released music or an album until now so it as much a discovery of myself as it was a discovery of my own sound and the direction I want to take.

“This album has so many influences both lyrically and production wise. I draw influence and inspiration from Lana Del Rey, Halsey, Drag Pop, and even a little Nicki Minaj and David Guetta.

“But i also pull a lot of inspiration from my own life and those around me. I sing about a relationship I’m in right now as well as one’s in my past. I sing about crazy nights out I have been on and some of the awesome things I’ve seen and also some of the crazy times I’ve had between the sheets or my own personal fantasy haha.

“The first single on the album was called ‘Pain‘ which is also seen in the Naked Sword original adult movie ‘Fame Game’. Myself and Will Read who produced this track wrote this in a day and we recorded an hour later. I wanted to kinda show a vulnerability in the song and sing with truth so the track is actually about a really messy break up I had two years ago.

“I have so many people who have worked with me on this album! Aleks Rey produced most of this album and i have a lot to thank him for and all his work helping me develop. I have a few artists on the album both UK and US such as Virginia Wright, Aleks Rey, and Chris Crocker.

“My next single ‘Look Me In The Eyes Ft. Chris Crocker will be out a few days before the albums release date which is the 29th January. This new track is very Pop but with a Club and Rap vibe but I guess you’ll see when it’s released.”
