She’s got a voice that can shake a stadium—and a message for anyone who’s ever felt like they don’t belong. In this soulful, candid conversation, Xannova Xan opens up about growing up between cultures, building her confidence through performance, and how she created her musical alter ego to express herself. From childhood stages to high-level collaborations, we trace her journey through emotional resilience, artistic identity, and what it really means to be “alien” in a world that expects conformity.
We talk about:
• How Xannova found power through performance
• Why music became a home when nothing else was
• Navigating identity, culture, and conflicting emotions
• The creation of Zenova—and what it unlocks
• Her upcoming Alien EP and the anthem behind it
• The cost of chasing validation—and what replaced it
