  1. DON'T KILL MY SISTER

    4 May

    DON'T KILL MY SISTER

    9. DON'T KILL MY SISTER The morning is here and real life means real danger for real people. Track nine is direct because the subject requires it and it lives in hip hop soul R&B because that genre has always been the one that said the things everyone else was afraid to say. Trans women in this community built the ballroom scene. They were mothers, icons, legends, and the backbone of houses before anyone outside these rooms knew our names. The violence against them is not separate from the culture. It is inside the culture and the culture has to say something about it. Silence on this is not an option. https://sites.google.com/view/ballroom-is-dead/ballroom-is-dead From the album BALLROOM IS DEAD. Written and produced by VJ PUMPDABEAT. PUMPDABEAT, 2026.

    I CAN DO THAT TOO (BITCH)

    14. I CAN DO THAT TOO (BITCH) We came back and while we were gone someone packaged what we built and sold it without us in the room. Track fourteen is country pop because if you are going to take from everybody at least admit you took from us too. And then you come back and the new kids who built their whole look on what you created look at you like you are the one who does not belong here. The copy does not recognize the original. Not angry, not bitter, just accurate. We built everything you are selling. We can do that too. We have always been able to do that too. The bitch is in the title for a reason. https://sites.google.com/view/ballroom-is-dead/ballroom-is-dead From the album BALLROOM IS DEAD. Written and produced by VJ PUMPDABEAT. PUMPDABEAT, 2026.

  3. AFTER WE BALL

    AFTER WE BALL

    8. AFTER WE BALL The ball is over, the clips are posted, the critiques are in, and now it is two, three, four in the morning and the night took a turn in the best way. Track eight is that morning after energy, the good kind, when the sun is coming up and real life is about to start again. It lives in neo-soul jazz because that is the only genre that understands how to hold joy and exhaustion in the same breath. You have to carry it back out into the world with you and this track is that walk. https://sites.google.com/view/ballroom-is-dead/ballroom-is-dead From the album BALLROOM IS DEAD.

    BALL OVER

    2. BALL OVER Track two is placed here on purpose. It starts in that feeling of a perfect ball night when everything is right, the music is right, the performances are right, the energy is right, and you are exactly where you are supposed to be. Then somebody could not hold it together and now everyone who came to be somewhere safe has to leave early. It lives in Southern R&B soul because that genre understands the full range of that feeling, the joy and the deflation and the oh well that only ballroom people know. https://sites.google.com/view/ballroom-is-dead/ballroom-is-dead From the album BALLROOM IS DEAD.

  5. BQ WORK FOR IT

    BQ WORK FOR IT

    6. BQ WORK FOR IT Track six lives in trap soul R&B because that sound understands what it means to be precise and emotional at the same time, which is exactly what butch queen performance has always been. The lyrics are the same as track seven because the standard is the same. What changes is who is delivering them and what that body means on that floor. The grand prize does not come because of your name or your lineage. It comes because you worked for it in front of everybody. This track is the admonishment and the invitation at the same time. https://sites.google.com/view/ballroom-is-dead/ballroom-is-dead From the album BALLROOM IS DEAD.

  6. COME FROM BEHIND

    3 May

    COME FROM BEHIND

    11. COME FROM BEHIND The house meeting surfaced the real issue and track eleven takes it outside. This is full WWF level confrontation, wet hair, sweating on the mic, one icon calling out another icon directly while the house kids stand back and let it blow over because this is not their fight and they know it. Ballroom and wrestling have always shared the same theatrical DNA. The entrance, the character, the crowd that already knows the beef before anyone says a word. Arena rock because this needed to be that loud and that sweaty and that specific. We have love for where you have been. The floor is wide open. Get on it. https://sites.google.com/view/ballroom-is-dead/ballroom-is-dead From the album BALLROOM IS DEAD. Written and produced by VJ PUMPDABEAT. PUMPDABEAT, 2026.

  7. FIERCE

    3 May

    FIERCE

    5. FIERCE You are watching your clip and questioning everything. Did you win. Should you have lost. The critiques come, the praise comes, the reposts come, something goes viral. Track five does not need to explain what fierce means because the album has already been fierce from the first note. It lives in neo-funk and acid jazz because that sound has always known how to carry weight without losing the groove. The judgment is happening in real time and this track is what that feels like from the inside. https://sites.google.com/view/ballroom-is-dead/ballroom-is-dead From the album BALLROOM IS DEAD.

  8. GRANT MONEY, GRANT PROBLEMS

    3 May

    GRANT MONEY, GRANT PROBLEMS

    16. GRANT MONEY, GRANT PROBLEMS Track sixteen is the grant. A voice and an acoustic guitar and nothing else, because sometimes the most political thing you can do is strip everything away and make people sit with the words. Track fifteen was what you paid to get here. Track sixteen is what arrived. The grant money came. The problems came with it. Both are true. https://sites.google.com/view/ballroom-is-dead/ballroom-is-dead From the album BALLROOM IS DEAD. Written and produced by VJ PUMPDABEAT. PUMPDABEAT, 2026.
