Rutger published: Bimini Collaborates with Kate Nash on Powerful Remix of Anti-TERF Anthem "GERM"

In a powerful collaboration that continues to resonate across the LGBTQ+ community, RuPaul’s Drag Race UK star Bimini is set to bring new life to Kate Nash's outspoken anthem against trans-exclusionary radical feminists (TERFs), titled "GERM."

Kate Nash, a renowned artist and BRIT Award-winner, first released "GERM" in May, rapidly stirring conversations with its fierce critique of so-called "gender-critical" feminists. In the track, Nash does not hold back, describing TERFs as "exclusionary, regressive, misogynist," and tackling issues such as domestic abuse, hate crimes towards transgender individuals, and male mental health.

This spoken-word single quickly went viral, drawing both praise and criticism. While Nash faced backlash from TERFs and online trolls, she has remained steadfast in her message, unbothered by the negative remarks. "I’m getting letters from trans people that are so moving and so powerful about how they felt hearing the song and how grateful they were," Nash explained in an interview, emphasizing that this positive feedback far outweighs any criticism.

The song's impact is about to be amplified even further with the upcoming remix by Bimini. Known for their electrifying performances and advocacy for LGBTQ+ rights, Bimini shared a sneak peek of the remix on Instagram, accompanied by the question, "Is GERM the most important song released this year so far?"

Nash responded enthusiastically to Bimini's post, sharing it with her followers and expressing her excitement with a series of exclamation marks, highlighting the anticipation surrounding this collaboration.

Championing Trans Rights through Music

In her dialogue with the media, Nash has been vocal about her intentions behind "GERM." She wanted to create a record that unequivocally positions a feminist, cisgender woman as pro-trans and as a trans ally, while denouncing transphobia and the misguided notion that it aligns with feminism. Nash firmly believes that true feminism involves dismantling systems of oppression, not trampling on the rights of others.

This message has resonated with many in the LGBTQ+ community. Fans and followers have showered Nash with praise, with one person noting that she is "more punk than most punk stars these days." Another admirer expressed relief that someone they admired as a child continues to stand for progressive values.

The music video and social media discussions surrounding "GERM" have sparked widespread support and admiration, further cementing Nash’s status as a committed advocate for equality.

Bimini’s Artistic Influence

Bimini’s involvement adds a layer of excitement and cultural significance to the song’s message. As a prominent figure from the Drag Race UK franchise, Bimini has consistently used their platform to address important social issues, making them a fitting collaborator for Nash’s bold statement against TERF ideology.

The remix is expected to bring a club-ready energy, ensuring that the powerful message of "GERM" reaches even broader audiences, especially within spaces where queer expression and celebration thrive.

Both Nash and Bimini continue to inspire and challenge the status quo, using their artistry to advocate for inclusivity and fight against prejudice. Their collaboration exemplifies how music can be a powerful vehicle for social change, encouraging dialogue and understanding within and beyond the LGBTQ+ community.

As anticipation builds for the release of this remix, it promises not only to be a dance floor hit but also an anthem for allyship and empowerment, uniting voices against discrimination.
