Artist comments:
From “one” to “zero”. Zero, there are endless possibilities.
As a creator, I will try to flesh out these possibilities. I will strive to break the mold, change the world through my music and words, and impact as many people as possible. If my career so far can be regarded as “one”, then “zero” represents a new starting point for everything. With this mindset, I decided to start my journey as a solo artist “LEI” and I am so grateful for the amazing opportunities I was given from the beginning. I hope my music is created with love and respect for the work I hold dear and that it resonates with many people.
