RINI on collaborating with OPM artists, giving back to Pinoy fans

For Filipino-Australian singer-songwriter RINI, experimenting or exploring new ideas is in the nature and DNA of any artist.

Such an endeavor, as everybody knows, fosters artistic growth. It also makes a creative to offer something new.

It's safe to say that RINI's latest EP, Lucky 7, is a testament to how far he has come so far in his music and a preview of what lies ahead of him.

Released via Warner Records, it is composed of tracks such as Scars, Gone With The Wind, Under The Surface, Miracle, Ecstasy, Matter To You and Far Away.

"Personally, real artists, they're never the same, like, every year, it's like they change and that's just the nature of, like, a creative person, I feel like," said RINI in a recent virtual chat with The STAR, "coz I find myself always kind of like gravitating towards a new thing every now and then, and you know, the new stuff that I create is, like, in six months' time, that's old. I wanna create a new thing. I think that's the natural thing for artists and that's a great thing."

He sees an artist as someone who pushes the envelope to evolve "and like, find, a fresh new thing every time," added he. "You know, you don't wanna be listening to the same stuff every time and you know, things tend to get boring sometimes."
