“If my stories can become even a small source of inspiration for someone else, I find that meaningful in itself.”
Fresh off making history at Coachella as the first Korean male K-pop solo artist to take the stage, @taemin_xoalsox@xoalsox fronts our second cover of NOTION The Artists Vol. 4.
Reflecting on nearly two decades in the industry, Taemin opens up about creative growth, self-production and expressing his inner world through music: sharing how honesty and evolution remain at the core of everything he creates.
With new music on the horizon and the historic global stage ahead, he continues to push boundaries as one of K-pop’s most influential performers.

Rising pop star Kylie Cantrall (@kyliecantrall ) returns with “Carrie Bradshaw,” a single that threads the city-chic energy of Sex and the City with Kylie’s signature pop-baddie charm. Think couture pop, a diary of vulnerability, and the kind of Y2K nostalgia we all yearn for. We caught up with Kylie to spill the tea on all things music, fashion, and pop culture 💋
“‘Carrie Bradshaw’ really marks a turning point for me, and it’s the perfect introduction to this new era. Sonically, it feels elevated but still rooted in emotion. I wrote this album like a diary—the lyrics are honest and vulnerable because I dug into my personal life and didn’t shy away from the messy parts (even my very public love triangle).” 👀

After a virtual production job wrapped, we did a little test. This was @leecherry and @frustumvirtual in a few hours of messing around. Notice the handheld #parallax and the #360 rig. The tech is very powerful and easily accessible with a little bit of prep. Hit us up. Bring your own files or we can guide you through from ideation to execution. No AI was used for the visuals but we did use #Suno for the backing track for funzies. We’re offering ridiculous intro deals. #cherrysodastudios #virtualproduction #greenscreen #eaglerock

In the vibrant soundscape of urban music, Clarent stands out as an artist unyielding in his authenticity, a true voice “for the streets” with the undeniable swagger of a rockstar. Hailing from Puerto Rico, Clarent has masterfully woven the raw energy of trap with broader urban influences, creating a signature sound that resonates deeply and personally. In this exclusive interview, he opens up about the pivotal moments that shaped his craft, from the local legends who sparked his early inspirations to the strategic shift of signing with Warner Music. Clarent shares insights into his deeply personal creative process, the balance of maintaining street credibility while embracing commercial appeal, and the unshakeable mindset that fuels his journey, offering a glimpse into the spirit of an artist determined to “keep doing us” and redefine the narrative of modern music.
“All my songs are based on real life experiences. I sing and write about what’s going on in my life. I think “IA” was a very real song”
