He sees his music as a tool and a powerful platform by which to explore and promote issues faced by the LGBT community. Dareo Knott cites Beyonc\u00e9, Ariana Grande, and Kim Petras as his biggest inspirations, but we feel that Lady Gaga has possibly had an influence too, even if unconsciously.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">You can find out more about Dareo Knott on his <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/dareoknottmusic\/\">Facebook<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/iamdareo\">Twitter<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/iamdareo\/\">Instagram<\/a> accounts.
