The star of Pitchfork’s fourth and final zine of the year is Dijon<\/a>. Few artists had a more impactful 2025 than the Los Angeles singer-songwriter, who not only released his critically acclaimed sophomore album, Baby<\/a>,<\/em> but also toured North America, had key features on Justin Bieber’s Swag<\/em> and Bon Iver’s SABLE, fABLE<\/em>, and made his acting debut in Paul Thomas Anderson’s One Battle After Another<\/em>.<\/p>\n In our cover story, which is accompanied by photos from Julian Klincewicz, contributor Paul A. Thompson speaks to Dijon<\/a> about a whirlwind 12 months, going from cult act to one of the most compelling voices in modern music. As Thompson writes, \u201cDijon is the rarest sort of popular artist: one committed to pushing formal boundaries in a way that makes him and his audience sincerely uncomfortable but who seems to get more famous the less he compromises.\u201d<\/p>\n You can purchase up a hard-copy of the zine at Rough Trade Records.<\/p>\n
