him in action. Yannick has advised me that
other artist have approached him and he
is currently singing their songs to get their
music out and writing for them as well, but
he’s trying not to write too much for others
until he gets certain inspirations and the
proper paperwork has been filled out. It’s
also good to know that though he’s writing
for others he remembers that he doesn’t
neglect himself in the process. He has
written and sang his own music, but because
it is still in the copy-write process he cannot

Life is full of many things, and many
are full of life. It has been a pleasure meeting
this young man as I journey through life. It’s
truly a blessing to be able to introduce to

Yannick Taylor. Yannick is a 29 year old black,
non binary person in the community. He
identifies himself as gender-queer, and is not
only a singer, and musician, but an activist,
and vlogger as well. After reading about some
of Yannick’s goals I wasn’t shocked to see
that in addition to everything he is doing he
was interested in starting his own business as
a music teacher and a vocal coach, and things
are slowly happening.

Yannick’s music on YouTube where he has
post of various covers of mainstream and

he would love to work with such as Bjorn
Duphot, who Yannick depicts as his mentor
and looks up to him as his big brother.
Yannick says that Bjorn gives him lots of
advice and mentors him on the industry, as
well as helps him to get his own materials
together. Another artist Yannick would like to
work with is B. Slade, who Yannick listened
to before B. Slade transitioned from Tonex.
Crystal Waters and a few others fill the list
of many artist he would love to work with,
especially those of the LGBT community.
Mr. Taylor has also created a crowd
funding page on www.YouCaring.com to
allow others to help support him on this
journey he has embarked on. He says, “What
made me stat it... I was doing a crowd
funding with gofundme, but with attention
