Osaka-born singer-songwriter MIREI (當山みれい) turns the skyline of the world’s busiest city into a personal diary––neon lights, hidden temples, and midnight trains all find their way into her melodies. Since stepping onto the scene at age 15, she has tallied 730 million+ streams, cracked viral charts in both Japan and mainland China, and earned the nickname “songstress of streaming.” Yet numbers only hint at her reach: MIREI writes pop as social x-rays, exposing the anxieties and tiny rebellions that pulse beneath Gen-Z Tokyo.

Her 2025 concept album Tokyo Stories opens with the trilingual breakout single “UNSENT” (feat. Chinese rap star AK 刘彰), a late-night confession about the courage it takes to hit send. MIREI’s fearless honesty has caught the attention of global tastemakers—from Beats Per Minute, who praised her for “turning protest into pop spectacle,” to influencers on Douyin, where clips of her ballad “Negai” generated 200 M+ views. She has been included in China’s Strawberry Music Festival, collaborated with 88rising, and completed her 3rd Asia Tour in July, proving her stage prowess matches her studio vision.

Fluent in Japanese and English (with a touch of Mandarin), she moves fluidly between Japanese TV, global podcasts, and interactive songwriting streams, building a truly international fanbase.

With Tokyo Stories, MIREI cements her role as a bridge between Tokyo’s underground stories and the global pop conversation. She’s not just telling city stories — she’s rewriting it, one fearless hook at a time.
