A New Wave in Streetwear: XLARGE & X-girl Collaboration

XLARGE and
X-girl, recently announced an exciting collaboration in light of their sponsorship of the upcoming
SUMMER SONIC 2026 music festival. To celebrate, they have revealed a key visual featuring the rising female rapper
3Li¥en. This collaboration centers around the release of a limited edition T-shirt that perfectly encapsulates the spirit of the festival.
3Li¥en: A Force in the Music Scene
3Li¥en, a name to watch in the industry, has garnered attention for her unique blend of sound and style. Born in Japan but having spent her formative years in Nigeria and then the United States, she represents a true fusion of cultures. With her self-proclaimed alien identity, the rapper has carved out a niche for herself by embracing a diverse range of musical influences. 3Li¥en combines elements of gospel and Afrobeat with hip-hop, hyper-pop, and trap, showcasing an extraordinary versatility that appeals to listeners across the globe.
Her recent performance on the popular show
Rap Star Born 2025 has taken her career to new heights, showcasing her undeniable talent on a national stage. Additionally, she has been selected for
Apple Music's `Up Next Japan` program, which highlights promising new artists, solidifying her status as a formidable presence in the music scene.
Despite her rising stardom, however, it’s worth noting that 3Li¥en will not be performing at SUMMER SONIC 2026, making this collaboration even more intriguing.
