Abstract

Streaming music platforms, such as Spotify, maintain a fight against permanent suturing against dispersal. In other words, the intention not to become "multi-purpose drawers" of music. For this, a constant strategy and an exploration of classification systems are practiced: by listener activities, by emotions, by lifestyles, by the moment of the day, by musical genres, etc. This classification work and its results in terms of listening facilitates a very relevant information about music and its uses in daily life. Categorization, in its development, has reached gender identity. The list of LGBT +, brings together songs and music that, in the opinion of its designer, belong to the subculture LGBT +. This research investigates the criteria that, apparently, classify songs included as part of the LGBT + identity, as well as in the specific characteristics of their lyrics.
