He has now returned back to Taiwan to pursue a career in music as sunkis. Despite majoring in Econ in college, sunkis possesses many surprising artistic talents: he has a solid foundation in contemporary jazz hip hop and ballroom dance, and almost pursued a career in dance instead. He cites various American R&B artist such as Pink Sweat$, Kehlani, and Frank Ocean as his songwriting inspirations, along with 88rising’s lofi artist keshi and Grammy-nominated hip hop artist Ty Dolla $ign. He independently released his first single “Lemme go” in 2019, when his talents as a songwriter were first discovered. Although the song wasn’t considered a hit, sunkis caught the attention of many in-house artists. His warm voice caught the attention of Golden Melody award winner, Shi Shi Sun, who asked for a collaboration. In “Realer Love”, a R&B ballad co-written with Shi Shi Sun, sunkis showcases his emotional sincerity. He is diverse in his music genres as evident in his featured West Coast style track with ØZI, “JUST DO YOU” — his playful attitude giving the song an extra groove. Though he isn’t quite fluent in Mandarin just yet, sunkis’ slightly awkward American accent and androgynous look has become part of his charm. This endearing young artist is paving his own path into the world of R&B. Instead of the usual explicit sexual content present in most R&B tracks, sunkis chooses to sing about old fashion romance and relatable heartaches. His audience knows he is expressive and sincere. This year sunkis is officially debuting and finding his unique voice in this saturated industry. While still relatively unknown, sunkis’ journey as an artist official starts this year and he is definitely one to keep your eyes on!
