In collaboration with Dr. Martens’ Tough As You initiative, we're looking for an innovative emerging artist to shoot a digital feature for Notion.
Over the past six decades, Dr. Martens has been immersed in culture from the ground up — more specifically, the subcultures that grow to shape the future. Tough As You — their Europe-wide initiative supporting the next generation of emerging artists — sees that heritage applied in a purposeful, practical way.
Designed to amplify under-represented voices in music, the Tough As You initiative seeks to forge a more inclusive and accessible industry. From financial support to events, panels, workshops and long-term mentorship programmes (teaming up with the likes of Kojey Radical and Mahalia), the brand is creating opportunities to amplify their voices — in turn shaping the future of the industry, and culture, for the better.
In partnership with the programme, and line with our mutual values and objectives, this week we’re opening a search to spotlight one emerging artist with a digital shoot and interview. Sound like you or an artist you know and love? We’re looking for: applicants who are early on their careers, but have established their own sound and identity — those who have something to say, and a message to spread.
