Dato Seiko described her musical style as delivering soul-soothing melodies that lessen the challenges individuals face in life. “I found solace and inspiration in the melodies that filled my ears and music became my refugee. As a person who battled depression and anxiety, I want to use my talent to help people heal from the power of music as I believe our stories are intertwined,” Dato Seiko said. A poignant verse from the song underscores her commitment to sharing her talents with the world: Nobody can tell me that God is not patient, cause girl with you/ He took his time.' This verse encapsulates her core values and dedication to her artistry. Dato Seiko reiterated her ambitious pursuit of international acclaim as an artist. 'I am driven by big dreams. My ultimate goal is to transcend borders and make a global impact with my art,' she said.
