In her own words, “Sometimes I don’t know how to express myself, but through music, I express myself comfortably.”
Having released fan favorites like “Cry Me a River,” “Keys to the City,” “Feeling Good,” and “Kosa,” Zani continues to build momentum. She was part of the Hero Lager Initiative, collaborating with well-known artists, and she’s now stepping into a new chapter with her most powerful work yet: her latest EP, “LANE,” released on April 20, 2025.
