LAYYI is a Singapore-based zennial singer-songwriter whose sound blends pop, R&B, and acoustic storytelling with a warm, soulful vocal tone often likened to Ariana Grande. She emerged as a solo artist in 2021 and first gained recognition with her debut single “Hey Love,” which has amassed over 1.5 million streams on Spotify. She has steadily built a growing listenership, reaching over 200,000 monthly listeners on the platform.

Grounded in honesty and self-expression, LAYYI’s music reflects personal experiences and emotional clarity, often delivered through stripped-back arrangements and guitar-led compositions. Her approach resonates with a generation drawn to intimate, genre-blending sounds between mainstream pop and independent R&B

With her rising presence, LAYYI was also featured on a billboard in Times Square as part of Spotify’s EQUAL campaign for Singapore and Malaysia, an initiative spotlighting women in music globally. As she continues to release new work, LAYYI is shaping a distinct voice within Southeast Asia’s contemporary pop landscape.
