INYIM Editorial Profile
Anthony De La Cruz
Founder & Creative Director
Music, entertainment, fashion
Anthony De La Cruz is the founder and creative director of It’s Not You It’s Me Media, the independent publication he has helped shape since its launch in 2009. From the beginning, he has approached INYIM as more than a news site, building it as a constantly evolving creative space where music, entertainment, men’s fashion, photography, and visual storytelling can exist side by side.
Anthony guides the publication’s editorial direction and visual identity, with a sharp instinct for emerging talent, overlooked stories, distinctive imagery, and the moments that deserve more attention than the mainstream cycle gives them. His work reflects the spirit that has defined INYIM from the start: original, independent, curious, and driven by a genuine love of creativity in all its forms.
