    Durand Bernarr

    By Club Chrome @ Melkweg, Lijnbaansgracht 234A, Amsterdam

    Erykah Badu. Kaytranada. Anderson .Paak. The Internet. Teedra Moses. They all have one thing in common: they collaborate with the vocally exceptional Durand Bernarr.

    The Grammy-winning singer, songwriter, and creative force brings a fresh perspective to the world of progressive R&B. Durand Bernarr was born in Cleveland, Ohio, and was exposed to music at an early age. He grew up in a family where music was both a passion and a profession.

    His breakthrough came in 2016 with the release of ā€œSound Check,ā€ a project that showcased his distinctive style. He followed that with ā€˜DURā€™ and ā€œBLOOM,ā€ which cemented his status as an innovative force within the independent R&B scene.

    Mykki Blanco

    By Club Chrome @ Melkweg, Lijnbaansgracht 234A, Amsterdam

    From art project to queer icon. Mykki Blanco began as an experiment centred on a teenage girl posting vlogs and raps on social media. Just over a decade later, the artist has become a household name and a figurehead within the queer community ā€“ a reflection of self-discovery and identity through art.

    Mykki has pushed hip-hop to unprecedented, unbounded limits by blending noise and experimental elements with club and trap influences, while carving out a distinctly subversive path within a genre historically entangled with problematic ideologies such as misogyny, homophobia and transphobia. While Blanco is widely recognised as a leading force within the so-called ā€˜queer rapā€™ sub-genre, their recent work signals a strong artistic evolution that breaks through genre boundaries.

    Vincent op Vrijdag x The Queer Agenda

    By The queer agenda @ Van Gogh Museum, Museumplein 6, Amsterdam

    During World Pride 2026, Vincent on Friday is all about queer culture, community and self-expression. Together with The Queer Agenda, we're handing the stage over to queer artists, makers and collectives. Inspired by Vincent's fearless way of doing things his own way, we celebrate the power of people who carve out their own path.

    The Queer Agenda presents
    This edition of Vincent on Friday is all about The Queer Games. Are you Team Van Gogh or Team The Queer Agenda? Expect quizzes, comedy, performances and a whole lot of gaymes. With you as the audience, surrounded by Van Gogh's greatest hits.

    Grab your tickets now. We can't wait to see you there. Get ready to be Van Gaghed!

    Programme
    Move to the sounds of Rachel Green and performances by Eirini Kakopierou and others. Join a talk on chosen family, hosted by Noah de Campos Neto, or explore The Queer Agenda's photography exhibition on queer censorship on social media.

    During a shibari performance by Antartica & Qotton, you can try your hand at life drawing. Put your knowledge to the test in the ā€˜De Slimste Queerā€™ pub quiz, hosted by Tessel ten Zweege and Elmer.

    Rather switch your brain off for a bit? Laugh along at Mezrab's Comedy CafƩ, cheer on the many queer battles in our boxing ring, hosted by Hunkydory, or challenge other visitors to a few classic Dutch games. And of course, we'll wrap up the night on the dance floor with AK Soundsystem.

  2. Babs

    Bitterzoet, Spuistraat 2, Amsterdam

    Babs

    Bitterzoet, Spuistraat 2, Amsterdam

    Babs is een veelzijdige, kleurrijke artiest en producer uit Leiden, die maatschappelijk actuele rapteksten combineert met aanstekelijke, zelfgeproduceerde popbeats. Haar muziek zit vol scherpe observaties, persoonlijke verhalen en maatschappelijke themaā€™s waarover ze rapt met een flinke dosis humor en zelfspot. Haar debuut-EP ā€˜Ruimtevreesā€™ verscheen tijdens de pandemie in 2021. Daarna ging het hard: ze stond op festivals als Noorderslag, Paaspop, Dauwpop en Zwarte Cross, en haar nummer ā€˜Bennie Boosā€™ werd genomineerd voor Song van het Jaar. Ook deed ze in 2024 mee met het populaire tv-programma Wie is de Mol?

    Met haar energieke liveshow speelde Babs op talloze podia en deed ze twee uitverkochte clubtours door Nederland. Samen met een strakke liveband, die onder meer bestaat uit haar tweelingbroer als toetsenist en MC, krijgt ze moeiteloos een zaal aan het dansen, zonder de diepgang van haar teksten te verliezen. Dit najaar presenteert ze haar tweede album ā€˜De Club Is Stukā€™, wat ze viert met een feestelijke releaseshow in Bitterzoet.
