Global music and culture media VI/NYL has announced the worldwide release of VI/NYL GLOBAL #002, the second issue of its international edition. Published in full English by Caelum London Limited (London, UK), the global edition will be released worldwide in late December 2025, while the Japanese domestic edition will be available from Monday, December 22.

Feature Highlights
CA7RIEL & Paco Amoroso
Rising stars of Latin music, CA7RIEL & Paco Amoroso received 10 nominations at the 2025 Latin Grammy Awards, winning five major awards. During their first-ever visit to Japan this summer, VI/NYL conducted an exclusive, secret photo shoot that quickly became a topic of conversation. The feature presents a dynamic collection of raw street photography and in-depth interviews captured across Japan.
Fukase
As the frontman of SEKAI NO OWARI, Fukase has long been a defining figure in Japan’s music scene. With the launch of his hip hop solo project, he enters a new phase of artistic expression. Paired with an exclusive fashion story, Fukase reflects on his evolving creative vision, personal transformation, and the intentions behind his solo work.
The global edition differs from the Japanese edition (VI/NYL #026 Fukase, released December 20) in its cover, back cover, and selected images.
Additional Features
This issue also highlights seven emerging artists gaining global attention, capturing the diversity of contemporary music and culture across genres and borders. The magazine includes exclusive shoots with Royel Otis and Perfume Genius, alongside interviews with Mochakk, Destiny Rogers, Downtown Kayoto, FACE, and Young Franco.
