      The reason why most Chinese music talent not yet reach the international market is that they already make lots of money in China, it is a huge market there to satisfy, so they might just make money there and worry about the international market later on.

      why....? most well off Chinese kids go to international schools in China. they all have an American/British accent when they speak english (depending on if it's an American Intl or British Intl).
      if you go to any top 20 school in the US, you'll meet TONS of Chinese international kid speak FLUENT english with an American accent even though they never spent any time in the US.
      im guessing she's well off.

    Manta is my fave as well. Even though, as a project overall, Hide & seek is a stronger song and her best production in my opinion. I think it's plain to see and hear that she's been working hard on her sound as it comes across unique and distinict, the kind of style you say that's Lexie. Also I really like her stance on music production overall, I think you got to be selfish when it comes to your music. If it doesn't sound as you want it to, then it's not right and you should'nt go for it.

    You broke the walls at your beginning for being the Difference
    you aren’t like anyone and anyone could be you or copied you
    You are genuine
    And your work is completely originally
    You said that you are more than a rapper, etc
    Yes, you are much more than a singer
    You are an artist, cause the lyrics are amazing and some of them are poems
    And the meaning of the words are powerful and deeply
    The videos are fantastic
    I know that are many production but the idea is yours. I m sure about that.
    I disagree with some words
    I see you like a very sensitive person and need someone who care you and have the ability and wish for living an adventure every day life
    I think you hiding your real you
    But you want live that but you don’t know how to assume that for yourself and others, after you want everybody and yourself too believed that you don’t need anyone.
    You could be well with be like that, but you know and I know too, that you aren’t complete and you aren’t really happy.
    And you want
    You said one thing that I believed you are like that but the way you said, let be sure about that
    You said that you don’t allowed be influenced by the others thoughts
    Great
    I m proud for you
    But you are like that cause you learned that
    You in the past followed a wrong people and them you closed for some things
    Some things that you are close are bad for you, cause is you that are losing the good things of life.
    You deserve what you want and you are desiring.
    Be strong
    Courage
    You deserve feel alive again
    Please forgive me if I m wrong, but I m sure that both knows I m right
