INTERVIEW – Wisdom with Swag: Openly pansexual pop artist Yaysh asks people to give her — and love — a chance

Yaysh understands that she presents a unique challenge to many people.  She is an androgynous-looking female, white MC and a singer who often crosses musical genres. "People often want to label me a lesbian, but I prefer pansexual because I occasionally find sexual chemistry with men," she explains, clarifying, "usually black men."

In "Get 2 Kno Me," her provocative new pop/reggae summer track, Yaysh invites listeners to open up and embrace a higher quality of life.  "I want to encourage people to be honest, vulnerable and willing to take that fearless leap into life’s unknown," she says.  "Leap.

GC: Congrats on the success of "Get 2 kno me"!  What was the inspiration behind the song?
