MUSIC LYF: Krizza Neri Listening Party

Krizza Neri has indeed growing out of her shell and venturing into the world of entertainment with the release of her new self-titled album, Kirzza. From the reality show Protégé, she is now on her way to be the next singing idols of the country. 

Sometimes to hear (and to see) is believing, so at her Listening Party recently with other bloggers and online media, she showed that her talent was indeed refined by practice and various competition. And at her young age, she is definitely ahead of singers of her age. No wonder she won the competition.

And in he listening party, there was no band, nor guitar, just pure voice. That really impressed us, when she sang some songs in the album as well jammed with the other bloggers (will post videos soon). I will also post a album review soon, so stay tuned...
