Leyona - Niji

Review by Brie Yolanda

Niji, the latest album by Leyona, is a refreshing and uplifting collection of songs that showcases the artist's unique blend of rock, pop, and folk influences. From the opening track, "Niji", which translates to "Rainbow" in Japanese, it is clear that Leyona has crafted an album that is both musically and lyrically rich.

One of the standout tracks on the album is "Milk Tea", a catchy and upbeat song that has a whimsical quality to it. Leyona's vocals are sweet and airy, and the instrumentation is playful, featuring a mix of acoustic and electric guitars, drums, and a horn section.

Another highlight of the album is "Kanashimi no Nami ni Oborete", a hauntingly beautiful ballad that showcases Leyona's emotive vocals. The song is stripped back, with just a piano and Leyona's voice, allowing the listener to fully appreciate the raw emotion in her delivery.

Summary by Brie Yolanda

Niji is a well-crafted album that showcases Leyona's versatility as an artist. She effortlessly blends different genres and styles to create a cohesive and enjoyable listening experience. Fans of J-pop, rock, and folk music will all find something to love on this album.
