LA pop songstress Haneri returns with “Real Love,” a cheeky, porcelain pop gem. Former runner up on Singapore Idol, Haneri is breaking down the walls around her, redefining her legacy as an individual creator. Haneri blends Asian pop with American electronic as a flickering, animated beat is soothed by her charming vocals. Expelling a playful energy, this optimistic joint is an ode her 11-month-old pup, Snowball. The carefree nature of this track shines with each transition, breathing life into Haneri’s humor, affection, and prophecy as a star.
