A decade after his first visit, rapper and singer-songwriter Lay Zhang met his Filipino fans via an exclusive fan meeting and listening party on Monday, 4 December.

The Chinese pop star opened the show with “Boom” and “Right Back.” Zhang also answered questions submitted by his fandom, Filipino XBacks.

As a treat, he played snippets of two upcoming songs “Psychic” and “Step” which he targets to release in the first half of 2024.

“I chose these songs because I want you guys to feel these emotions, feel my love,” Zhang said.

He made a promise to bring his concert tour Grandline 3 to the Philippines next year.

“I always keep my promise,” Zhang said.

After the Philippine leg, Zhang is set to visit Jakarta, Indonesia and Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia this December.
