Kevin Fret

Kevin Fret, the first openly gay Latin trap artist, was also a popular Puerto Rican rapper and singer. Fret graduated from the Roger L Putnam Vocational-Technical High School in Springfield, Massachusetts. Fret was known for “breaking gender norms […] and stigma about being gay, gender nonconforming, and expressing gender identity freely – in a country where gay people still get mocked, bullied and killed,” mentioned queer activist and filmmaker, Samy Nemir Olivares. Fret was gunned down while riding his motorcycle in January 2019.
