Oakland’s own Goapele premieres the video for her new single, “Play”, from her latest album, Break of Dawn.

Inside, the reality television personality shares her thoughts on her highly viewed reality TV show, what she has learned from Meagan Good while working on the set of Think Like a Man and addresses the topic of the LGBT community & sexuality:
On the topic of LGBT sexuality that arises:
