MUMBAI: In March 2024 issue of Forbes Japan, released today, JAKOPS, the Executive Producer of XG, delves into the philosophy underpinning XG's remarkable global success in a special feature titled "Let's Talk about 'New Leaders'".
 
XG, the Hip Hop/R&B-inspired girl group that made its debut in 2022 following a rigorous 5-year training period, has been making waves on the global stage. From major music festivals in the United States, Australia, Singapore, and the United Arab Emirates, among other locations, to achieving unprecedented milestones, their journey has been nothing short of extraordinary. XG etched their name in history by securing the first-ever ranking for a Japanese female artist/group on the U.S. radio chart "Mediabase Top 40 Radio Airplay Chart," maintaining the longest consecutive ranking for an Asian girl group at an impressive 13 weeks. Adding to their accolades, they made history by topping the U.S. Billboard chart "Hot Trending Songs Powered by Twitter" as the first Japanese artists to do so. Over the past year, XG adorned the cover of the U.S. Billboard magazine as the first Japanese girl group and graced the covers of renowned domestic magazines such as Forbes Japan and VOGUE JAPAN.
 
JAKOPS (Simon), who has been the producer behind XG for many years, unveils his global strategy and philosophy behind their sudden explosion onto the music scene. Check out the magazine for more insights.
