9m88 (pronounced “Jo-m-Ba-Ba”) is a Taiwanese singer, fashion muse, and genre-bending artist known for her distinctive voice, retro-futuristic style, and fearless blend of jazz, R&B, funk, and soul. A graduate of The New School for Jazz and Contemporary Music in New York City, she rose to prominence with her breakout track “Aim High”, and has since become a leading figure in the Mandarin-language alt-music scene. With albums like Beyond Mediocrity and 9m88 Radio, she’s garnered a cult following for her musical dexterity and visual storytelling—effortlessly shifting between eras and influences with originality and depth.

Her personal style is wildly expressive, rooted in vintage references yet styled with hyper-modern precision. Think bold prints, structured suiting, and playful silhouettes—always accompanied by show-stopping accessories. Eyewear is central to her look: expect tinted bug-eyed frames, geometric cat-eyes, or colour-blocked shields that channel '70s disco, '90s R&B, and contemporary art all at once. She favours boundary-pushing labels like Ray-Ban and Chanel. Whether performing live or appearing in experimental fashion editorials, 9m88 wears her sunglasses like she delivers her music—fearlessly genreless, creatively free, and impossible to ignore.
