ØZI profile
In 2018, ØZI won Best New Artist at the 30th Golden Melody Awards for his debut album ‘ØZI: The Album’. Before his major-label debut, the 2017 release of his single ‘Title’ proved ØZI’s unique style and indelible talent, and shook the media as well as the music scene around Greater China. His song ‘Paradise Island’ surpassed 1 million plays, fueling his talent as an R&B singer.

He has also collaborated with Japanese artists such as Kumi Koda on ‘Outta my control feat. ØZI’ and sanari on ‘Nights (feat.ØZI & eill)’, attracting attention for his global success.

With a philosophy that all of his original songs should be true to life and express his very core, he handles production of all the songs on his albums himself. Also, as a believer in the motto “work hard, play hard”, he goes straight from the party to the studio, harnessing that buzz to fuel his creativity; and when his work in the studio is done, he returns to the party, as a creator overflowing with expression and artistry.

From composing music to writing lyrics, playing instruments, singing, trackmaking, recording and even directing his own music videos, ØZI has shown his wide range of abilities as an artist and producer. He takes inspiration from the people and experiences he encounters, and he never allows the long period he spent living overseas and the music theory he studied at Berklee College of Music to overcomplicate his feelings, allowing him to connect directly with listeners and leave a lasting impact.
