RYL0 Has Her Full-Circle Moment With 'Thru My Chest' Born out of the nature of the internet is a generation of omnivorous listeners not bound to the limitations of genre; it was only a matter of time that hyperpop would explode onto the scene. Frenetic and sickeningly sweet, the genre has spawned countless artists intrigued by its accessibility, much like the previous wave of bedroom pop. Alt-pop breakout star RYL0 is taking all of these things and making them her own. Taking a detour from her explosive, off-kilter hyperpop bangers opens a new path for the young artist, armed with the skills learned from being an independent artist that has collaborated and shared the stage with everyone from Fraxiom to Arca. "Thru My Chest," her latest single, hints at this new era. Harps drenched in reverb lead into deep kick drums with the dark urgency of drum-and-bass, setting the perfect backdrop for RYL0's stunning vocal performance that goes in and out of autotune. RYL0 is ready to see what 2023 can bring, and that means reflecting on her journey thus far to inform her songwriting process. With some of pop's most prominent producers ready to work with the rising star, she's ready to expand the vast, colorful world that she's built.Read on for PAPER's conversation with RYL0. “Thru My Chest” is such a brilliant track and is very different from a lot of your poppier, mile-a-minute songs from your EP. What did that process of shifting gears look like for you?The process has been pretty long actually! We got together for the “Thru My Chest” session late last spring, around the same time I was preparing to release my last mixtape, I’m the Worst!! So there’s been a lot of overlap. I came up with the concept of I'm the Worst!! back in 2020 and it didn’t come out until May 2022, so I’ve been playing the long game for a while and a lot can change in that window. Once that project came out, I was already mentally onto the next thing since I was doing tons of different sessions in the middle of its rollout. I had spent a few years operating in the hyperpop world, was ready for a change, and started exploring new styles of pop music. Leading up to the release of this track, I knew I also wanted to change up my look. I like to challenge myself since I get bored easily, and decided to transition from the DIY internet music aesthetic that I had embraced the past couple years to something that was more glossy. I’ve been talking about this “rebrand’ for months, and that’s not something that just happens overnight. I really wanted to take my time and make sure everything would be aligned with this new direction before rushing to put the track out. I needed new assets, so I made new logos, updated my website, created a Discord server, made a Tumblr, etc. Now that everything’s all set and the presentation’s there, I feel really confident about finally shifting gears and reinventing myself again. I browsed your Soundcloud and was taken by your older work characterized by eerie synths and minimal voice production, and I see glimpses of it in this track. How did you find your way back without letting go of your passion for pop music?I’ve actually been thinking about this a lot lately, and it really does feel like a full-circle moment. Up until late 2020, my biggest musical inspirations were Kelsey Lu, Grimes, FKA twigs and Purity Ring so I was incorporating a lot of dark electronic elements that were often categorized as “experimental” into my music. I was producing everything myself using GarageBand while I was also trying to figure out what I wanted to say and how I wanted to say it as an artist. I wasn’t concerned with anything technical because I found it boring, and I never used a proper microphone because it was more convenient to just sing straight into my laptop. Obviously, I didn’t take myself too seriously but I also knew I hated being called experimental because it still felt disingenuous to what I was actually aiming for.Releasing "Thru My Chest" of course marks the beginning of a new era in my career, but it also feels like a nod back to some of my earliest releases in a lot of ways. While this was never the intention when creating this track with my collaborators Dave Burris and Christina Galligan, I think that ultimately proves the point I’ve been trying to make for years up until now… I’ve always been a pop-oriented artist. I’ve definitely gotten better at making that more obvious in my music over the years, but the pop sentiment has always been there for sure.You are a former screenwriting student. Do you envision ‘Thru My Chest’ being part of a larger story in the future, and does envisioning your music in this way help your creative process?I started writing songs around the same time I studied screenwriting in college, and I think that significantly impacted the way I tell stories in my music. I love building narratives in general, but with this song in particular– the narrative is pretty fairly self-contained. The song itself might not be my most intense or meaningful, but it’s still very honest to how I was feeling on the day we had the session. I remember really struggling to wrap my head around my own emotions, feeling really vulnerable, and trying to parse through them in real time as we were coming up with the lyrics. I think working with another writer definitely made it easier to detach myself from the context, and keep it concise while also prioritizing the song’s pop appeal.With that being said, this track does communicate really well with a few other songs I’ve made over the past several months, but that wasn’t intentional. It wasn’t until I looked back on the demos that came out of a lot of these sessions I had back to back last year that I realized there was a consistent through line at all. Usually when I come up with a concept for a project, I form a loose narrative early on in the process and try to create songs that fit within that overarching story. There’s a lot of value in that approach and I’ve learned so much about world building that way, but I didn’t do that with this song. I’ve been trying to just let stories form organically based on what I’m actively feeling inspired by in my life and let the larger story speak for itself.You’ve worked both solo and alongside a talented array of producers and fellow artists throughout your career. What has been the most rewarding and most challenging parts of going from making music independently to opening yourself up to the world of collaboration?Working with a team of people and considering other tastes, styles, opinions, and timelines can definitely have its challenging moments, but I love collaborating and it has always been a huge part of my life as a creative. Before music, I was heavily involved in pursuing both musical theater and a career in film production – both highly collaborative practices. The only real reason why I worked so independently for the first few years of my music career was because I didn’t have many other options when I first started out. I started learning more about production as a hobby while still in film school so I wasn’t really surrounding myself with people I could ask for help. I didn’t have any kind of musical network and it felt both extremely isolating and freeing since I only had my intuition and my own ears to rely on. At a certain point though during the pandemic, it was becoming harder to operate by myself on my little island because I was struggling to find new ways to grow and challenge myself. I was getting bored of operating within my limitations, so that’s when I got online and started building a community for myself and hitting up literally anyone. I was so bold about reaching out and DMing as many people as possible, and that process was extremely rewarding and changed my life. I’ve made some of my favorite songs with the help of people I’ve met online, and that gave me a lot of confidence to start collaborating in person… sometimes in really intimidating environments. I truly collaborate all the time at this point in my career and I’m a much better artist for it. Plus things get done a lot faster which is a bonus!Check out the PAPER premiere of RYL0's "Thru My Chest" below.Photos courtesy of RYL0 https://www.papermag.com/ryl0-premiere-thru-my-chest-2659205529.html

🍸 character who inspired your mc
🌱 book that inspired your wip
🐠 author who inspires you
🍯 author you know
🍄 name a song that represents your mc
🌾 book you would / have writ(t)e(n) fanfic for
🍸 character who inspired your mc Emmett - It took some figuring out when I restarted Thief of Hearts after 9 years (and trying to tell by the date of the original note with its premise), but I still find it sort of funny that I took a serial killer from Criminal Minds (episode 3x02 if you're curious, I made someone cutting out hearts a little more metaphorical, but not by much, and gave him a much less forgettable name than what IMDB claims is Joe Smith) and went 'what if you weren't the villain actually' and ended up with a whole novel. Although this isn't an abnormal way for me to get a story. (Just ask Emma from Magic & Silver) Rory - Meg Galligan/Galloway (depends on whether you mean book or movie version) See below
🌱 book that inspired your wip I did a Tolkien and Birnam Wood on Northern Lights by Nora Roberts, believe it or not. (Ok I liked the book just fine but kept wondering when the lights were going to become really plot relevant.) And I ended up weirdly fond of Meg, half of the main character duo and feisty without leaning into overly 'strong female character', and managed to be tough, jaded, vulnerable, and damaged at the same time. Some of that 'everyone at arms' distance so no one can hurt you anymore' definitely bled over into Rory (although I may actually have dialed it up a little...a lot).
🐠 author who inspires you Right now I'm going a little feral over Jules Dyrud, an indie author I found through Bookstagram. Her book Majesties is wrecking my heart (I picked it up thinking it would be a good comp for Thief of Hearts and honestly I look kind as an author in comparison to what she's put her main character through). I love finding writers who don't shy away from tackling brutal topics and yet do it with grace and sensititivity.
🍯 author you know Erin Bartels from my home state of Michigan! My parents worked at a summer camp with some of her family so when her first book came out we went to her signing to support her, and while it took me a few years to actually read her novels, I quickly found out she was the kind of writer I can't get enough of and I eagerly await each new book and the accompanying author visits to my local bookstore!
🍄 name a song that represents your mc Emmett - Jar of Hearts by Christina Perri Rory - Seven Devils by Florence + the Machine
🌾 book you would / have writ(t)e(n) fanfic for Dracula! I don't do a lot of book fanfiction (maybe because books feel more complete to me than most movies/shows) but the characters from that one have a piece of my heart forever and sometimes I just need to yell about it in the form of fic about their precious little found family.
Thanks for the ask!!

Eric Nam's New Single and MV "Don't Leave Yet" Out Now!
LOS ANGELES, CA— Korean-American entertainer, singer-songwriter, and actor Eric Nam released his new single, “Don’t Leave Yet” on August 11, 2023. The track was written by Eric Nam, Rabitt[1] (Jason Yik Nam Wu), Boy Matthews, and Christina Galligan. Listen to the single here and watch the music video here
A true multi-hyphenate, Eric was involved in the screenwriting and creative direction of the music video. Produced alongside creative team 37th Degree (BTS, NewJeans) and choreographed by world-class choreographer Kyle Hanagami (BLACKPINK, CNCO, Justin Bieber), the video is set at a decadent dinner party complete with lavish food and glamorous guests, yet Eric is disconnected from the party happening around him.
“‘Don't Leave Yet’ is my take on a dance song,” Nam shares. “I wanted to flip the typical dance song on its head and thought about those situations where you or your friend don’t want to go home and stay out dancing instead. Maybe you want to get your mind off things in your life, and this song is saying - we can just dance it all out and stay here as long as you'd like. I'd like to think it's my version of an uplifting “I'm there for you” kind of moment, but in a fun dance song.”
“Don’t Leave Yet” follows the release of lead single “House on a Hill,” the title track from Eric’s forthcoming album. Last month, Nam enlisted Em Beihold for a special new version of “House on a Hill”. “House on a Hill” was met with critical praise upon release and was included on ROLLING STONE’s “Songs You Need To Know” list.
Eric’s highly anticipated new album, House on a Hill, will be released on September 8th. The album will include collaborations with UK-based artists, HONNE & Oh Wonder, and longtime collaborator & producer, Rabitt, musically supervising the album. House on a Hill is available for pre-order or pre-save here.
Following the album release this fall, Eric will embark on his House on a Hill World Tour which spans over 80 shows across North America, Latin America, the UK, Europe and Australia / New Zealand. Tickets for the North American, Latin America, UK and Europe legs are on sale now. See below for full tour routing and for additional information, please visit ericnam.com.
ABOUT ERIC NAM
Named GQ Korea’s Man of the Year and Forbes 30 Under 30 Asia, the multifaceted musician, actor and television personality Eric Nam is one of the most successful Korean-American figures of recent times, having built what GQ calls “one of the most varied and entrepreneurial legacies in the K-Pop scene.��� With 2.5M+ monthly listeners and 4.54M+ followers on Instagram, Eric has amassed over 1B streams on Spotify and most recently headlined a sold-out world tour playing 59 headline shows across 54 cities including Los Angeles, New York, Paris, London and Melbourne. In addition to music, Eric is a co-founder and creative director at DIVE Studios, the world’s leading AAPI and K-pop focused media company with multiple award-winning podcasts, and Mindset, a mental health and wellness platform for Gen Z audiences. Eric will soon make his acting debut as the lead in the psychological thriller Transplant.
Eric is represented in the Philippines by NYMA in partnership with his management EN Management. NYMA is the talent management arm of KROMA Entertainment.

The location filming on this show is so impressive. Los Angeles has been in a hundred shows but I feel, watching this one, as if I’ve never seen the city on film before.
This was a tighter episode than the premier. No flashforward and lots of story development made for a perfect, cohesive viewing experience.
So lovely moments. Such as the reaction of the murdered man’s wife. Stuff you just don’t see on other cop shows.

Report from Code4Lib 2017, or: take me back to the sunshine
I spent last week in beautiful Los Angeles getting all sorts of inspired by Code4Lib 2017. If you don’t know Code4Lib, it’s a conference (and community) focused on library technology. This was my first time attending and it was absolutely fantastic - I’m a lifer, if I can swing it. There were a ton of top-notch sessions, but here are four that really stuck out to me.
[Photos taken by me, showing the UCLA campus.]
Maintaining a Kick A** Tech Team and Organization
Bonnie Gordon, Hillel Arnold, and Patrick Galligan, Rockefeller Archive Center
Presentation notes here.
The RAC team talked about their stated core values, which "express how we work together as a team, and define a standard against which we hold ourselves and each other accountable" during a time of a lot of institutional change. I really appreciated how they centred their values both in their work and in their interpersonal relationships. It gave me a lot to think about in the context of my own work.
Participatory User Experience Design with Underrepresented Populations: A Model for Disciplined Empathy
Celina Brownotter and Scott Young, Montana State University
Slides here. One of the most inspiring talks at the conference, Scott and Celina talked about engaging Native American students in UX work to give them a sense of agency within the library.
The Most Accessible Catalog Results Page Ever
Kate Deibel, University of Washington
Slides here. Kate built (and is continuing to work on) the most accessible catalog results page - that is, a catalogue results page that is accessible to users with a wide range of mobility, sensory, and cognitive disabilities.
Resistance is Fertile
Christina Harlow, Cornell University
Slides and notes here.
Christina laid out a "manualfesto" (she absolutely acknowledged how awful that portmanteau is) for how those of us who work in libraries can model our ethics in our work. Using the RiotGrrl manifesto and the Queercore movement as bases for inspiration, she talked about questioning and dismantling harmful power structures that govern our work, especially focusing on data and models (i.e. OCLC and Bibframe, because she's a metadata librarian). I found it really, really inspiring.
The whole conference schedule can be found on the Code4Lib 2017 website, with slides and notes linked from each talk’s page (when available). It’s a really welcoming, inclusive conference. If you’ve never been to C4L and want to talk about the experience, hit me up on twitter at @archivalistic!

Pizza Hut Made ‘Pie Tops,’ With a Button on the Tongue to Order Pizza, for March Madness
Pizza chains are way ahead of the curve when it comes to innovative—some might even say goofy—ways to order pizza. Now, Pizza Hut raises the bar for March Madness with “Pie Tops,” a set of limited-edition high-tops that use geolocation to allow wearers to get pizza delivered to wherever they are.
Just press a special button on the tongue of the sneakers, and they connect with a Pie Tops app (not the regular Pizza Hut app) that orders pizza for you.
Ad agency Droga5 came up with the idea, and the sneakers were handmade by the Shoe Surgeon, aka Dominic Chambrone, who’s a legend in the custom sneaker business.
Grant Hill can explain more in this spot, which will air during March Madness:
David Daniels, vp of media and advertising for the Yum Brands chain, tells AdFreak that the client was thrilled with Droga5’s idea. “We loved it,” he says. “This is one of those ideas that as soon as we saw it, we wanted to buy it. It hit everything we wanted to communicate in this window in a fun, really relevant way. And it was beautifully tied to the thematic of the tournament and the season.”
The handmade sneakers are extremely limited edition. Only 64 pairs were made, to match the 64-team field in March Madness, and most of them will go to influencers and people in the media, who can amplify the message. But a few lucky Pizza Hut fans are likely to get some pairs, too.
The broader point is to emphasize how easy it is to order a pizza from Pizza Hut via multiple digital devices and modes, Daniels says—phone, tablet, laptop, Alexa-enabled devices, Facebook Messenger, Twitter and more.
The stunt ties in to a specific Pizza Hut promotion for March and April—$7.99 for a large two-topping, available for carryout or delivery, but must be accessed online. Pizza Hut has other deals running concurrently, but the online nature of this deal made it a good time to focus on the ease of online ordering.
“As far as we know, this has never been done before,” Daniels says. “We feel it’s highly culturally relevant. Sneakers are hot. We’ve enlisted a really cool professional to design these shoes for us—the Shoe Surgeon out of L.A. These 64 pairs are handmade, and pretty cool.”
So, the sneakers are great for ordering pizza. How good are they in a game of basketball? Can they get a player to actually wear them on the court?
“We haven’t gone that far yet,” Daniels says with a laugh. “Grant will have a pair, though, and we’ll have to get his take on the performance nature of them on the court, versus ordering pizza.”
