Rei’s music effortlessly crosses genres, languages and cultures, collecting millions of streams on the way. The Bridge is his most ambitious album to date, debuting at the top of Spotify’s R&B homepage, with features on New Music Fridays, Urban Flavour and R&B Connect. Through the 14 tracks, Rei explores the highs and lows of a relationship, sharing his internal emotions and realisations along the way. Through this, Rei reinforces his self-empowering kaupapa of being a ‘chief’ of your own life, while staying true to his signature high production and catchy hooks.
Too Easy featuring up-and-coming reggae artist Lion Rezz is dropping with the album and it has a fun pop/reggae vibe. The Bridge is right up there with the latest trends in Hip Hop, RnB and Pop music and he is stoked to finally release it. The title of the album describes his journey where he feels he is The Bridge between the many worlds he walks between.
