NAI-RELEASE na ang debut album ng nag-iisang soloist ng AQ Music na si Zela titled Lockhart. Ito ay binubuo ng 10 tracks, na ang anim dito ay mula sa sariling komposisyon ng dalaga.
Ang album ay sumasalamin ng tiwala at woman empowerment.
“I’m a woman myself, so it’s very important for me. You know, these days, we women are gaining more voice, so I want to use my platform to empower others,” sabi ni Zela nang makausap namin.
Ang Lockhart ay kinuha mula sa apelyido ni Zela.
“My name is Zéla Lockhart, so the title came from there. We decided on it because it has a personal meaning for me. Most of the songs are written by me, and it all started there. ‘Lockhart’ also symbolizes being locked in on my goals and the things I want to achieve in life,” esplika ng P-Pop soloist.
Ace ang ttile ng latest single ni Zela, na isa sa mga isinulat niya, na kasama sa kanyang album.
“Ace means Activate Confidence to Empower. I chose to just call it ‘Ace because I want to empower others through my music, That’s why I made it the main track for my album.”
Ang unang single ni Zela ay Karma, na sinundan ng Pogi Boy at ang ikatlo ay ang 01/01.
Kung ngayon ay hataw sa stage si Zela kapag nagpi-perform, na walang stage fright at sanay nang humarap sa mga tao, noong bata pa ay nabu-bully siya. Ang dahilan, sobrang tahimik at hindi nakikihalubilo.
“Perhaps I was bullied because they noticed something unusual about me. Perhaps I was too quiet as a child. I had to undergo bullying, and I believe it is important to say that,” kwento ni Zela.
Mukhang malayo ang mararating ng Filipino-American singer, songwriter, rapper, at dancer na si Zéla dahil sa pagiging mahusay nitong singer. At plus factor din ang suporta siyempre na ibinibigay sa kanya ng AQ Music at ni RS Francisco.
