Will Sheridan

Sheridan also released critically acclaimed and pioneering LGBT Hip Hop EP, S.O.A.P (Sex on a Platter) and follow up Giant album G2, which he opted to give away for free.

In addition to being an LGBT Sports and Music pioneer, he is a professional event coordinator with a New York City-based production company.

His start was a gig entitled "The Will to Win" at the Spark Center, a tiny café attached to an Italian restaurant in New York.

His first music video from the EP was "Welcome to the Jungle", that has a decidedly African rhythm with the refrain of the word "asante", which means thank you in Swahili.

Since his debut RapIreland.com posted on their website "It seems that we could have our very first openly gay Hip Hop artist," shortly after Will Sheridan's public appearance on OUTSIDE THE LINES.

Sheridan has also opened up for Drake, Peaches, Christeen and collaborated with artists such as Cakes da Killa, Big Dipper, Boy Radio, Corey Tut and Kyven.

In 2014, Sheridan released critically acclaimed EP S.O.A.P (Sex on a Platter) which has two videos available on YouTube and is a free download on SoundCloud.com.

In an interview with Outsports, he said many of his songs, most notably "You Know I Got It" and "Set Fire in the Streets" did contain lyrics about homosexuality prior to coming out publicly.

NCAA Division I Long Beach State 49er basketball center Travon Free came out openly as a bisexual player in January 2011.
