Laya, who is approaching the release of her EP "Whose Emotions," wrote the EP while confronting her own emotions. Particularly strong emotions can be felt in the lead single "Down".
The message from Laya is encapsulated as follows: "Being swayed by others' opinions, having expectations and facing disappointments. To move a step forward from such emotions, valuing one's worth and loving oneself assertively can be of help."
In the chorus that starts with "Don't let me down," vocals layered multiple times express various emotions uniquely, gradually growing stronger. Depending on the interpretation of the song, it can be seen as both a breakup anthem and a song that pushes you forward.
Laya's free style, not confined by the notion of "R&B is singing, HipHop is rapping," strongly emerges, embodying her originality. Expectations are high for her future endeavors.
Laya, a native of Tokyo, is a singer-songwriter with a unique musical journey. Influenced by Motown Sound from a tender age, courtesy of her mother, she has masterfully woven R&B and HipHop elements into her music, all while infusing it with the gentle tones indigenous to Asia.
