Cocona, a member of the global hip-hop and R&B-inspired group XG, has come out as transmasculine and nonbinary.
The 20-year-old announced the news in a birthday Instagram post on the group’s account. “Today, I turned 20. As I reach this new chapter in my life, I want to share something that’s been in my heart for a long time,” Cocona said in the statement. “I am AFAB transmasculine non-binary. Earlier this year, I had top surgery.”
The statement continues: “I was born and perceived as female, but that label never represented who I truly am. I live in a way that feels more masculine and true to who I am. The hardest thing I’ve ever faced was accepting and embracing myself. But as I slowly began to do that, I was able to open a new door. That moment changed the way I see and understand the world, and it gave me the courage and strength to grow. Now, I can finally say, ‘There’s nothing wrong with who I am inside.’”

“This message turned out a bit long, but I just want to say thank you — for walking beside me and for supporting me all this way,” the rapper said to wrap up the statement. “I’m so excited for the future we’ll continue to create together with XG and XGALX [the group’s label].”
The seven-piece hip-hop and R&B-inspired group — made up of members Jurin, Chisa, Hinata, Harvey, Juria, Maya and Cocona — debuted in 2022.
