Florida-born artist Kara Major steps fully into her truth with “Gay in the Light,” a radiant and fearless release that wraps honest confession in shimmering, feel-good energy. It’s more than a song; it’s an anthem for International Coming Out Day that feels empowering.
“Gay in the Light” glows with confidence and rhythm. The production, crafted with the help of Kara Major, pulses with energy and makes you want to move. The lyric “I’m gay in the light of day” is a powerful declaration of self-acceptance and visibility. On the surface it might seem simple, however, that’s what makes it so impactful. It captures the moment someone stops hiding and chooses to live openly, without fear or shame. The “light of day” symbolizes truth, freedom, and the courage to be seen exactly as you are.
The track never loses its spark. However, even with its upbeat pulse, Kara Major wears her heart on her sleeve. “Maybe in the next life I won’t be seen as sin,” she sings that represents a moment of deep vulnerability wrapped in hope. It captures the pain of being judged simply for existing, for loving, for being yourself. There’s an acknowledgment in the line that the world still carries prejudice, but also a hint of yearning for something better. It’s both a wound and a wish.
In Kara Major’s context, the line becomes a rebellion. Instead of accepting shame, it mourns how others have weaponized “being different.”
Moreover, Kara Major’s story gives this release extra weight. Before music, she became a Women’s National Boxing Champion. That same fire runs through every lyric, every beat of this track. Kara Major is a fearless artist that turns her music into a self-acceptance anthem.
“Gay in the Light” works on every level. It’s a dance anthem, a coming-out song, and a moment of self-love. You can hear it blasting at Pride, but it also fits perfectly for those days when courage feels far away.
“I’m gay, and the universe still loves me,” she exclaims, and that’s the soul of this record that works as a reminder.
