Mx Qwerrrk & B.Ames Collab on New Club/Ballroom Banger “OnlyHams: The Piggy’s C*nt”
WOWlebrity, ham, and gender non-binary performance artist, Mx Qwerrrk, has enlisted New Orleans-based Ballroom and drag queen track producer B.Ames for her debut single, “OnlyHams (This Piggy’s C*nt).”
It’s a throbbing celebration of sex positivity and an homage to bountiful “bussies” everywhere! Inspired by the Ballroom scene, and known for her own voguing antics, Qwerrrrk decided her first single should be one where the kiddies could carry, and that meant it had to have queer icon B.Ames at the helm as co-writer and lead vocalist.
Mx Qwerrrk (Co-writer):
“I have been a fan of Ballroom and voguing for years (even snatched a couple of trophies)! When an opportunity presented itself to work with B.Ames, I had to jump on it. We just connected. Some of my favorite tracks by her are ‘Love The Girls’ with Sinia B. Alaia, and Ts Madison’s ‘Is It On’. She has that perfect sonic boom mix of tech and a lyrical rhyme scheme that riles the kiddies up on a dancefloor. Somehow, she just understands what a sexy and awkward, piggy and poised fem queen, like me, needs in a sickening beat.”
B. Ames (Producer/Writer, Vocals):
“The inspiration is based off of my song ‘Like, Really Cunt.’ I make a hybrid of pop, vogue, indie, crunk, electronic, and house music. The original I made back in 2011 when I was first getting into making Ballroom/vogue beats! This new version is everything. The idea I got was to play around with the idea of three little pigs and make it cunty!
My connection to the ballroom scene is music! The scene has been playing my music at balls and vogue practices for years now…since about 2010. I had this track called Rah Rah Ha that I made that was a vogue version of Nicki Minaj’s ‘Roman’s Revenge.’ I get told all the time how my music has impacted people’s vogue and how my music and mixes in general have helped them in their queer life. That’s something really special to me.”
