Cosette Turns Emotion Into Alchemy on "magic"
The self-produced artist on trusting intuition, building worlds, and finding power in transformation.
A Song She Knew Was Special
Some songs announce themselves immediately.
For Cosette, magic was one of them.
When speaking with Everyday Jams, the producer, vocalist, and visual creative recalled hearing the instrumental for the first time and instantly feeling something deeper begin to take shape. Before the song was finished, before there was a larger plan around it, she had already begun freestyling melodies and harmonies over the track.
"The first thing I knew about this song was that the verse instrumental immediately made me feel emotional," she says. "I knew I had something special."
That feeling never left.
Months later, magic arrives as one of the strongest representations of Cosette's artistic vision to date, balancing vulnerability, experimentation, and striking self-awareness in equal measure.
Reclaiming Power
At the heart of magic is transformation.
Not the polished, glamorous version often sold in pop music, but something messier and far more meaningful.
"Magic represents reclaiming power and alchemizing negative energy into something positive," Cosette explains.
The song explores deeply personal experiences while refusing to become defined by them. Instead, it turns those moments into something expansive, finding beauty where there was once discomfort and strength where there was once uncertainty.
That tension gives magic its emotional weight.
The song feels intimate without becoming confessional and powerful without losing its sense of humanity.
Following The Feeling
One thing becomes immediately clear when talking to Cosette: instinct guides everything.
Producing and songwriting aren't separate disciplines in her creative process. They're part of the same conversation.
She describes production as a flow state, a space where stories reveal themselves naturally rather than being carefully mapped out in advance. The melodies arrive. The lyrics follow. The narrative unfolds.
"I love seeing a story unfold before me when I'm writing lyrics," she says.
That willingness to trust feeling over formula has become one of the defining qualities of her work.
It's what allows her music to remain unpredictable while still feeling unmistakably personal.
Building The World Around The Music
For Cosette, the visual universe surrounding a song is just as important as the song itself.
The images often arrive unexpectedly, whether she's listening back during the mixing process or lying awake in bed long after the workday has ended.
The vision comes first.
Then she builds around it.
Armed with a VHS camera, editing software, and an unwavering sense of artistic direction, she's created a creative ecosystem that feels entirely her own. Every visual, every performance detail, every aesthetic decision serves the larger world she's constructing.
The result is an artist whose music doesn't simply exist on streaming platforms. It exists as an experience.
A Sound Without Borders
Trying to trace Cosette's influences feels almost impossible.
Her musical foundation pulls from electronic music, pop, R&B, rap, hyperpop, alternative music, and everything in between. Childhood exposure to artists like Kesha, Daft Punk, Paramore, and The Black Eyed Peas eventually led her toward The 1975, Ariana Grande, The Weeknd, and later the boundary-pushing worlds of PC Music and Brakence.
Rather than choosing a lane, she seems intent on building a bridge between all of them.
"I aspire to conquer every genre or blend them all into one."
That ambition can be heard throughout magic, a song that feels difficult to categorize but immediately recognizable as hers.
Looking Ahead
What excites Cosette most isn't a single release or milestone.
It's growth.
It's getting better.
It's having more stories to tell.
Looking back, she believes her younger self would be proud not only of the music she's made, but of the promise she kept to herself.
"I think young me would be so proud that I learned how to produce like I said I would."
That dedication continues to push her forward.
And if magic feels like a turning point, that's because it is.
Not an arrival.
Not a conclusion.
Just the beginning of something larger.
In Conversation With Cosette
When asked where new listeners should go after hearing magic, her answer came quickly:
"STOMP."
A track she describes as essential to her artistic development and one that helped shape the artist she is becoming.
For Cosette, every release feels connected to a larger story. Each song offers another piece of the puzzle. Another glimpse into the world she's creating.
With magic, that world feels more vivid than ever.
