House of Protection perform onstage during the Spotify x Depop event

What an artist wears can say as much about them as what they listen to. That’s the idea behind Spotify’s collaboration with Depop, which brings together six artists, their personal wardrobes, and an exclusive playlist.

As part of the partnership, Eve, Amira Elfeky, Estevie, Frost Children, House of Protection, and Lily Meola each curated a Depop shop with pieces from their closets, alongside a shared Spotify playlist. Check out the Instagram post below for a peek at each artist’s picks:

This group of artists spans a range of genres and scenes. Eve is the Grammy-winning rapper and actor behind hits including “Who’s That Girl?” and “Let Me Blow Ya Mind.” Amira Elfeky’s sound draws on alternative, nu-metal, and goth rock, while Estevie brings cumbia and regional Mexican music into a contemporary pop setting. Sibling duo Frost Children make high-energy electronic music, House of Protection blend elements of hardcore with electronic and rock influences, and Lily Meola brings a folk-pop sensibility to the lineup.

That range extends to their personal style, with each artist selecting pieces that reflect their individual point of view, from leather chaps and custom band tees to a vintage pink satin nightgown:

It’s a new year, and that means it’s time to predict which artists will make their mark in 2024. Continuing our annual Artists To Watch campaign, we’ve expanded the list to feature even more artists across many more genres.

Along with streaming data, we tapped our North American music team and editors of our playlist brands—Viva Latino (Latin), Pop Rising (pop), Hot Country (country), juniper (folk), New Noise (rock), Lorem (indie), R&B Rising (R&B), Most Necessary (hip-hop), and mint (dance)—to help select the 90 rising talents featured below. You can also find all of our picks rounded up in one convenient spot with our brand-new Artists To Watch playlist.

You’ll find Musica Mexicana crooner Chino Pacas among Viva Latino’s picks, and introspective hitmaker Teddy Swims included in Pop Rising’s selections. Country and folk singer-songwriters MacKenzie Carpenter and Chance Peña made Hot Country and juniper’s cuts, respectively, while all-women rock band The Beaches and moody indie songstress Chappell Roan were tapped by New Noise and Lorem. Meanwhile, South African vocalist Tyla, Texas rapper That Mexican OT, and Greek electronic producer Argy were recognized by R&B Rising, Most Necessary, and mint, respectively.
