Life and career
[edit]
AGA was born in Hong Kong on 21 January 1988.[citation needed]
Prior to becoming a singer, AGA worked as a flight attendant, hoping to save enough money to study music abroad.[2] After being discovered by renown Hong Kong producer Schuman (舒文), she began composing demos for him.[3]
Ginadoll was released 14 March 2016 and was certified gold.[3]
AGA released her album "Luna" on 22 January 2018.[4]
Despite this, she still insisted on creating during the epidemic, and even participated in the work behind the scenes of the music video for the song "See You Next Time";[5] she also produced the second melody written in life "I don't love this song" It is the song "So Called Love Song".[6] The three songs are all included in the fully composed album "So Called Love Songs" released on 28 September of the same year. In October, AGA was nominated for the Most Popular Artist in Greater China at the 2020 MTV European Music Awards,[7][8] becoming the only Hong Kong singer shortlisted for that year.
