UNVEILS STUNNING DEBUT ALBUM
'character development'
Korean-born, LA-based alt pop-star Zeph (full name Zephani Jong) is ready to make her mark on the alt pop world. The social media darling has released her debut album, and it’s a dazzling display of her writing and production capabilities.
Across 11 tracks, Zeph makes it clear that she is elevating pop music to new heights. Fans will find each track as personal as the last, in what Zeph describes as a “diary” album. The budding songstress has been championed and managed by MDDN and signed with Hopeless Records in 2023. Now, she’s ready to bring a new edge to pop music with her debut full-length record.
“It’s just about me figuring out what I want, where every song is like a diary entry which together document one small slope of an emotional rollercoaster. I've already grown a lot since then so looking back I feel like some of the songs come off a bit immature, but I guess feelings don’t have an expiration date.”

Additionally, the album swept up New Music Friday playlists across eight territories on Spotify Asia and graced the covers of Future Indie on Resso Indonesia and Jasmine on Spotify Asia.
