Today’s news of the Supreme Court of the United States turning away appeals from five states seeking to prohibit same-sex marriages set the stage for same-sex marriage to soon be legal in 30 states and the District of Columbia.
This means tons of Gay Weddings are on the horizon. Gay Weddings that will need official wedding songs catered specifically to them (ie: using the proper pronouns). When it comes to this music, there seems to be a black hole.
Rising Gay personality Larry “Phylle” Carter is seeking to fill that hole (no pun intended).
Many of you may know Carter as one of the stars of the YouTube reality show The Boyz Next Door (admittedly, a series we aren’t huge fans of).
The Atlanta resident is also legally married himself and was featured in our Who’s Who Guide to Black Gay Couples in the Media earlier this year (Editors Note: The man featured in the photos with Phylle here is an actor, not his real life partner).
Unbeknownst to us, he also happens to be a very talented singer and has debuted a song celebrating male Same Gender Love called, “I Love Him.”
Turns out, there is a full length music video in the works as well. A teaser Trailer was released this morning:
For the first time, we VERY critical media reviewers here at Cypher Avenue can actually vouch for an openly gay R&B singer!
Produced long before this new single, Phylle’s debut album “The Coming” is currently available on iTunes.
If you want to hear more of Larry “Phylle” Carter’s music or support the artist by purchasing “I Love Him” or his full length debut album, head on over to his website for old content HERE or his CD Baby page for the new ish HERE.

I really like his voice. Larry Phylle Carter does his thing. I saw this teaser before it was posted here and her finally put out an update about the show for The Boyz Next Door and when it will return because it has been months since an episode has been dropped via YouTube.
Larry is a very talented singer. I admire his bravery in bringing this long overdue type of music out to the public.
This is definitely quality stuff, the man has a beautiful voice. I look forward to the day when a song like this can get some mainstream radio play.
So I’m really surprised… but I can totally get behind this! Lyrically, vocally, musically… this knocks! And all this time I imagined my wedding song would be “You Mean The World To Me”… lol. Save your judgements, dammit.
Hopefully he receives a good reception. Its good stuff!!
Kudos to him! Hopefully everyone who is bugging this up actually supports it! the str8s aren’t gonna be running over to iTunes to do it…
Kudos’s to Phylle for standing up and representing for his community and I wish all the luck in the world……..that being said would I play that as my wedding song, being of a different generation with music taste of the Jazz & House genre can’t say I would.
