Perspective
Bean's music has been described as pop metal, pastel goth,[14] trap metal,[15] hyperpop,[8] alt-pop,[6] grunge,[3] and horror pop.[5] Paper's Jael Goldfine described their music as "freaky", "eerie", and "genre-bending".[7] They have stated that their music is inspired by film soundtracks, including those of the 2019 horror film Midsommar and the 2005 fantasy film Corpse Bride.[9]
Bean has stated that their style is inspired by Hello Kitty, Aswangs, Fraggle Rock, and Tim Burton films, and they have described it as a form of escapism.[2][3]
Bean's public image has evolved from a "cute" aesthetic with pastel colors and frills, mixed with gothic motifs, to a more edgy, glam-goth, and neo-Victorian look, reflecting their non-binary identity and musical growth. Bean's current style is more edgy and less "kawaii" looking, though still incorporating horror motifs.
Bean's makeup style, formerly known for its "hybrid creature" aesthetic, has evolved from a more extreme, fantasy-inspired look to a more glam, albeit still alternative, style, while maintaining their signature use of makeup as a form of expression. “As soon as I got out of rehab, I cut all my hair off and changed my makeup style because I kept seeing people with the same look,” Bean stated, in an interview.
Personal life
Bean is on the autism spectrum. They are agender and use they/them pronouns.[5][16]
In 2022, Bean spent several months in a rehabilitation clinic for a ketamine addiction.[17][18] Prior to this, they had written the majority of their debut album while on the drugs, but decided to scrap it and start over after recovering "... to avoid any sense of 'woe is me'".[17]
