Imagine seeing or hearing the sounds from your most meaningful memories flash before you. There’s a theory that in the final seven minutes of life, your brain replays the most pivotal moments you've ever experienced.

Since debuting in 2023, 82MAJOR has turned heads with a fresh, authentic sound that has fans asking, "Omg, have y’all heard of 82MAJOR?!" with every scroll on X.

That’s what it’s like for BeBy Entertainment’s girl group X:IN since the five members—E.sha, Nizz, Hannah, Nova, and Aria—came together to debut in 2023 to make music that truly transcends borders. In its latest interview with Mido Media, X:IN got candid about its third mini-album Defend Myself.

Mido had the opportunity to sit down with Rolling Quartz after the show to talk about life on the road, the creative process during production of songs, and their ever growing career.
