As of now, we want people to really glorify “Divine” and if there’s more music then why not? If there’s an album, why not? If there’s, I don’t know, a tour maybe? Why not, right? But yeah, we’re so excited to see how this goes in the future and how this music career blooms for the drag community.” </p><div><br/></div><p>Stream &#x27;Divine&#x27; on Spotify below:</p><div></div><div class="youtube-iframe"><iframe style="border-radius:12px" src="https://open.spotify.com/embed/track/5vovcpODLZpQsZBJOG3Ujv?utm_source=generator" width="100%" height="352" frameBorder="0" allowfullscreen="" allow="autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; fullscreen; picture-in-picture" loading="lazy"></iframe></div><p>Watch &#x27;Divine&#x27; MV below:</p><div></div><div class="youtube-iframe"><iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/v92dCpOOAS0" title="YouTube video player" frameBorder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen=""></iframe></div><div><br/></div><hr id="null"/><div><br/></div><p>Story by <strong>Meg Villanueva</strong></p><p>Photos courtesy of <strong>Tarsier Records</strong></p><script async="" src="//www.instagram.com/embed.js"></script>
