Why is Sylvester known as the Queen of Disco?

Vocalist Linda Diaz and DJ Jojo Lorenzo explore the life of Sylvester, the groundbreaking performer whose gospel roots, combined with jazz, rock, and disco, created unforgettable hits like “You Make Me Feel (Mighty Real).” They dig into his powerful falsetto and dynamic stage presence that redefined the disco era.

Linda interviews artist Myles E. Johnson to discuss Sylvester’s profound influence on music and the LGBTQ community. From his iconic collaborations with Patrick Cowley on tracks like “Dance (Disco Heat)” to his fearless self-expression, Sylvester’s legacy as a trailblazer for both music and LGBTQ rights has made him a pioneer in disco music.
