from Liz Cooper. \n\n\"I struggled so much while writing this record,\" Cooper says. \"I felt like I wasn’t allowed to come out – I was dealing with a lot of internalized homophobia. Celebrating my queerness and understanding who I am has been a long process. And it’s always developing. Every day is a new day of coming out to myself and to everyone around me. It was cool to embrace that. I’m very proud to be making music that feels honest to me and my experience.\" \n\nhttps://lizcooper.bandcamp.com/album/new-day", "location": 1, "location_name": "Default", "play_type": "trackplay" }, { "id": 3621760, "uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/plays/3621760/?format=api", "airdate": "2026-02-24T16:00:14-08:00", "show": 66020, "show_uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/shows/66020/?format=api", "image_uri": "https://dn721908.ca.archive.org/0/items/mbid-004d14da-82c2-4c38-96f8-3d2c8b9849f0/mbid-004d14da-82c2-4c38-96f8-3d2c8b9849f0-36178465248_thumb500.jpg", "thumbnail_uri": "https://ia600300.us.archive.org/2/items/mbid-004d14da-82c2-4c38-96f8-3d2c8b9849f0/mbid-004d14da-82c2-4c38-96f8-3d2c8b9849f0-36178465248_thumb250.jpg", "song": "I Been Young", "track_id": "c48793c2-aacb-4527-ad56-5e851dca83da", "recording_id": "2da33905-4f41-43b1-8510-2d690f06eac6", "artist": "George Clanton", "artist_ids": [ "9abcc01c-dcf1-4d74-bc55-d81922157956" ], "album": "Ooh Rap I Ya", "release_id": "004d14da-82c2-4c38-96f8-3d2c8b9849f0", "release_group_id": "ee5dfe0f-4cc4-41f2-ac5e-ab85b9b44ded", "labels": [ "100% Electronica" ], "label_ids": [ "e7489d32-a9a8-4891-9851-b6b06f0fbd6b" ], "release_date": "2023-07-28", "rotation_status": "Library", "is_local": false, "is_request": false, "is_live": false, "comment": "Hello and welcome to Drive Time, Tuesday edition!
