Troye Sivan + Leland | A Look Inside Their Creative Partnership + How “Rush” Started With a DM

Season 1 · Episode 7

Wednesday, April 8, 2026 • Duration 01:29:59

Troye Sivan and Leland make emotional, euphoric, deeply honest pop. But more importantly? They know how to build a creative partnership that blurs the line between friendship and songwriting. In this episode of Unfamous, Justin Tranter sits down with the longtime collaborators to talk about how their relationship fuels their music, from their first chaotic session to crafting songs like “Rush” and “Bloom,” and why the best ideas often come from surprise, trust, and letting things get a little weird. It’s about creative shorthand. It’s about pushing each other past instinct. It’s about chasing feeling over formula and staying honest even when imposter syndrome creeps in. And it’s a real look at how two artists build something lasting by choosing curiosity, joy, and each other over ego. If you love pop culture, music, and the messy, magical truth behind how things get made, this one’s for you. Follow, subscribe, like and comment wherever you watch and listen.

King Princess | Girl Violence, Nicole Kidman and a Demon Named Cherry

Season 1 · Episode 6

Wednesday, April 1, 2026 • Duration 45:12

King Princess makes bold, chaotic, deeply self-aware pop. But more importantly? She knows how to build art through collaboration, trust, and a healthy amount of beautifully unhinged creativity. In this episode of Unfamous, Justin Tranter sits down with longtime collaborator and pop provocateur King Princess to talk about songwriting, acting, queer storytelling, and what it actually takes to survive the music industry while staying true to yourself. From writing together when she was still a teenager to watching her step into acting alongside icons like Nicole Kidman and Christine Baranski in Nine Perfect Strangers, the conversation moves through creative evolution, artistic freedom, and the lessons that come from building a career on your own terms. They unpack everything from navigating labels and contracts to the power of trusting your collaborators, plus the creative chaos behind her new album and the mythological world of “Girl Violence.” It’s hilarious. It’s brutally honest. And it’s a real look at how artists grow when they stop pretending they have to do everything alone. If you love pop culture, music, and the messy, magical truth behind how things get made, this one’s for you. Follow, subscribe, like and comment wherever you watch and listen.

Season 1 · Episode 2

Wednesday, March 4, 2026 • Duration 50:07

Ink is a hitmaking songwriter with main-character energy. But more importantly? She understands collaboration like it’s a spiritual practice and a contact sport. In this Unfamous minisode, Justin Tranter sits down with Ink (Beyoncé’s “16 Carriages,” Lil Nas X’s “Star Walkin’,” Kendrick Lamar's "Luther", and a résumé she will absolutely read out loud and proud) to talk about freestyling melodies, letting go of the thing you “married,” learning from genius-level artists, and why the room has to stay sacred for the magic to show up. It’s funny, unfiltered, unexpectedly deep, and a masterclass in staying loose while still making something great.
