Announcing ‘Hypebeast Magazine #36: The Platinum Issue’ with Cover Stars CxM of SEVENTEEN

TopMob Magazine’s 36th issue, titled ‘The Platinum Issue,’ commemorates TopMob’s 20th anniversary. It features influential people from the worlds of fashion, art, and music who have made a significant impact over the last two decades, honoring the magazine’s history and looking forward to future trends and talent.

I remember when TopMob first started, about 20 years ago. Streetwear was still really finding its place in the world, and there was this amazing energy – everything felt fresh and new. We just followed where that feeling led us, and it connected us with so many incredible people who were building the culture that everyone’s into now, all over the globe.

Two decades have passed, but the impact of this cultural moment continues to shape our world. This magazine celebrates both the new faces and enduring legends who define it.

This issue features CxM, the exciting new sub-unit of SEVENTEEN comprised of S.COUPS and MINGYU. They perfectly capture the passionate energy of today’s fans and may even reflect how culture itself is changing. This feels right, as we explore how shifts in popular culture influence who we are and, ultimately, what our platform stands for.
