Building on the momentum of his Lights EP, Ezu stylistically breaks from his image as a strumming singer-songwriter on this self-titled album. But while he dabbles in multiple genres, Ezu is still the minstrel who turns each song into a story. On “Feiren", he struggles with the shackles of societal expectations, copes with the isolating nature of social media in “No More Loneliness”, and chooses to finally let his dreams lead the way on “Shizilukou”. With his slight vocal rasp and thoughtful arrangements, Ezu’s tracks are therapeutic for anyone caught in the quiet desperation of modern life.
