Virtual girl group MAVE debuted on metaverse with a video for their song 'Pandora’s Box', taken from an EP of thew same name. The four members of the K-pop group — MARTY, TYRA, ZENA, and SIU — were unveiled at the beginning of the year. The group has an eccentric fictional storyline that centers around the members coming from the future and crash landing on Earth, trying to find the freedom of emotions.

Trapitals's Dan Runcie looks into the lockdown past and thinks about metaverse future in his latest post: "As exciting as the metaverse, NFTs, and web3 are, it heightens the desire for artists to be on every medium and platform possible. As entertainment becomes more and more fragmented, it takes more effort for artists to be everywhere, even the superstars... Two of the biggest opportunities for music in the metaverse are letting artists and fans create their own worlds, and getting more women artists and fans involved".
