A few months ago, Bo, a talented Black woman and one-half of the dynamic duo from RaeRae and Bo, took the stage at the iconic Lejeune Club in Brussels, delivering a set that was nothing short of electrifying. Known for her impeccable taste in music and her deep connection with the wlw community, Bo’s unforgettable set is a vibrant celebration of queer culture and musical diversity in Belgium.
Lejeune Club, nestled in the heart of Brussels, is more than just a multidisplinary platform; it’s a cultural hub that champions artistry, diversity and talent. Known for their eclectic choices and commitment to community, Lejeune Club regularly hosts events that celebrate and uplift voices and talent from all walks of life. This makes it an ideal platform for Bo, as her work as a DJ isn’t just about music—it’s about creating spaces where everyone, especially members of the wlw and sapphic communities, can feel safe and celebrated. By spinning her tracks at Lejeune, Bo contributes to a larger narrative of queer empowerment and visibility in Belgium, aligning her beats with everyone’s mission to foster a welcoming and inclusive environment.
Bo kicked off her set with an upbeat selection of Shatta, setting an energetic tone that promised an unforgettable night for everyone listening. Especially for girls who like girls looking to pre-game before a night out in Brussels. Listen as the beats of Shatta and Bouyon blend seamlessly with the latest Jersey House and Afrobeat hits, this became a melting pot of movement and joy. The crowd, a diverse mix of queer individuals and allies, moved as one under the pulsating lights.
Bo’s set is not just a musical journey but a vibrant showcase of sapphic expression and freedom. Each track she drops resonates deeply with her musical choices of the moment. It’s moments like these that remind us of the power of music to bring people together, transcending boundaries and creating spaces where everyone, particularly Black women and the queer community in Brussels, can feel celebrated.
Thank god we have this video of the set! You can tell Krisy was enjoying himself, as Bo masterfully intertwined tracks, each transition smooth yet electrifying, keeping him on his toes:). Her connection with the music was undeniable! It’s a testament to her skills not only as a DJ but as a performer who knows what she likes to hear.
As we continue to navigate a world where queer spaces are sacred and essential, Bo’s performances at venues and platforms like Lejeune Club are not just entertainment—they are acts of resistance and celebration. They are reminders of the vibrant culture that thrives within the queer community and the joy that comes from a night of uninhibited dancing.
