Chart notes:
Beginning the chart fresh with the first weekend of April 2025, there are 50 new songs in the Top 50! As before, the chart positions are based on voting and on YouTube views. American musician Tyler Rayn (who's originally from Longview, Washington & now resides in Nashville, Tennessee) has earned a #1 spot on Tad's LGBT Music Chart with "Just Go". Tyler appeared twice as a contestant on American Idol (seasons 12 and 14), both times advancing to the Hollywood rounds before being eliminated. He is openly gay. When this single was first released, Tyler said "I wrote 'Just Go' during a time when I had to let go of things that were holding me back." The track ranked #2 in voting and #3 in YouTube views, which pushed him ahead of the competition and right into the #1 slot.
The remainder of this weekend's Top Ten features LGBTQ artists from England, the U.S.A., Spain, New Zealand, Australia, Canada, and Norway:
- Guitarricadelafuente (from Spain)
- Mad Tsai (from California, USA)
- Durand Bernarr (from Ohio, USA)
- Lambrini Girls (from England, U.K.)
- Rebecca Black (from California, USA)
- Anne-Marie (from England, U.K.)
- Ethan (originally from New Zealand & now living in Australia)
- Bbno$ (from British Columbia, Canada)
