T Singapore: The New York Times Style Magazine - December 2020

Bu konuda

For December we thought it fitting to end with a bang with five Singapore-based musicians who have been making new music content this year. On our cover we feature Jasmine Sokko, Benjamin Kheng, Yung Raja, Tabitha Nauser and Aisyah Aziz. Their music may span the gamut from rap to electronic to pop, but there are also striking similarities in terms of their hustle, grit and pure talent, and their determination to continue making music and art against the odds. As the rise of the internet and streaming services have blurred geographical lines, we have also seen the rise of a genre called bedroom pop — read about local band Sobs and how they have steadily built their own worldwide fanbase with nothing more than basic equipment at home and sheer talent.

Elsewhere in the issue, we cover the rise of FKA Twigs, a revelation in the music industry who has made herself a devoted student of various art forms — from dance to martial arts — in order to be the best performer she can be. We also interview the designer Matthew Williams to discover more about the collaboration between his brand 1017 Alyx 9SM and luxury label Moncler.
