A NOTE FROM THE FOUNDERS

Jaded is a love letter to the next generation of Asian artists. They are in a class of their own - multi-lingual, multi-talented, and multi-faceted - blurring the lines between mediums, genres, and cultural identities. We are inspired by their resilience, independence, and drive. These are the artists creating the global culture that we envision, one that is diverse and interconnected. We built Jaded to share their stories with the world: intimate, honest, and meaningful visual narratives that reflect the exceptional talent both in-front of and behind the camera.

We are proud to present our latest featured artist, Shelhiel, alongside the exclusive world premiere of his long-awaited Superstrobe video. Shelhiel is special. A Malaysian future-pop artist but so much more, Shelhiel is the kind of artist that reminds us why we started Jaded in the first place, and inspires us to keep going. With stunning photography and video from Nelson Chong and Cardin Phua, we invite you to experience Shelhiel's story, live now.
