Lay Zhang’s D.N.A Music Alliance Releases First Album

by Leslie Sherman October 17, 2023 1:43 pm

Global Chinese superstar Lay Zhang (LAY) returns to the music scene with his Chinese co-ed group D.N.A Music Alliance, releasing their first album《D.N.A》 centered around the theme “love”now available on all streaming platforms. The seven-member group, lead by Lay Zhang, along with members DANKO, GALI, Victor Ma, Shan Yichun, Wang Ziyi and Vinida, showcase their musical prowess in the collective’s latest body of work.The 11-track album is under the co-executive production by LAY himself highlighting his versatility and talent as a multi-faceted artist in the realm of music production.

Experimenting across both HipHop and R&B,《D.N.A》 is an album guaranteed to fit the taste of every listener. The first track, “All In” is a love song with a very unique rhyme, with lyrics that can arouse the emotional resonance of the audience. “Break My Heart” is a stand-out piece on lovelorn people produced by Bijan. “Right Back” tells the story of feelings after a brief separation from one’s lover, as one subconsciously starts to miss him or her. With “Racks On Me,” listeners absorb a warm-lighted ode to love produced by Yung Dza. “What She Said” is a story about an intimate relationship that draws to a close while “Wait For You” is a monologue turned into a confession about a chance encounter with love. “No Reason” is a knock-out collaboration between Prince Yi and Asian-Canadian musician Anders. Continuing the flow of the D.N.A hits, “Oh La La,” was also produced by Bijan who’s worked alongside hip-hop heavyweight Metro Boomin. “Except For You” is an R&B love song that expresses love from a male perspective. “Ashley” is a narrative ballad where you get to know her life and personality, produced by GRAMMY Award-winning producer Soolgothits. The bonus track of the album, “UZI” has a strong rhythm to express the attitude of adhering to a dream.

LAY has been and continues to be a household name in Asia, and his career in a whirlwind the last three years after joining forces with Steve Aoki and will.i.am for the 2020 hit cross-cultural collaboration Love You More, reaching #1 on the QQ Music China chart. He then released a string of hits with an album, two EP’s, cross-genre collaborations and solo singles overseas further propelling his international star power. The Chinese icon is one of the most beloved stars in the region with a loyal and highly engaged 51 million followers on Weibo and over 14.2 million followers on Instagram. As a solo artist, the entrepreneur’s career has skyrocketed to tremendous success, becoming the highest-ranked Mando-pop star on Billboard 200 chart and the first Chinese artist to enter the iTunes Top 60 in the U.S.; with his third solo album NAMANANA. Outside of music, he routinely showcases his skills for acting in TV and film roles, hosted multiple top-rated reality shows in Asia and is one of the most awarded artists in China. Now, LAY is working with a multitude of established and emerging artists to help bring their star power overseas with this project close to his heart.
