Watch XTIE's Performance on GRAMMYS Press Play
XTIE (pronounced as X-T) is a singer, songwriter, and music producer. Aptly describing her music as “cosmic pop”, the Hong Kong producer-singer weaves shimmery yet sophisticated pop beats with candid stories about the universe. "My songs carry messages of self-love, body positivity and “the beauty of imperfections”
Blending her euphoric pop with cinematic soundscapes and heart-wrenching melodies. XTIE’s exciting cosmic pop sound is taking her global.
XTIE is a also #1 charting producer in Hong Kong.

I like making shimmery pop sound, it makes me feel hopeful and empowered. Not just to empowering my listeners, but also myself as a person.
As a female Asian music producer, I always feel I'm one of the odds cos women in music is underrepresented in this industry.
Music has a organic power to bring human connections. As an artist, I believe we have the power to heal, and to nurture self-confidence among audience. "Skin" and "New Classic" are two of my recent releases , that carry the message of body positivity and women empowerment.

"I always want to pursue my career in the music industry since I was very small. I couldn't afford to go to Berklee back then, so I studied my Bachelor Degree in Social Sciences in Hong Kong and at the same time teaching myself on on music production and learning as much as I could about music business. I am very lucky to have a lot of people supporting on this journey. Now I can proudly say I can write, produce, record and perform on my own. I do love collaborations, I just see this not as an necessity but it's an artistic choice.
I worked full time in Art Management at a charity for 6 years and saved up for my artist project and releases. Until 2023 Feb, I decided to quit my full time job to pursue music 100%. I can now call myself a DIY Artist because everything you see out there is me. Now I am an independent artist, music producer, vocal producer, and songwriter.
I have a skin condition since I was a kid, I love to explore the ups and downs of having Eczema and skin allergy, and how I embrace body positivity along the journey.
Skin is a very personal and vulnerable piece of my song catalogue, which is also a very important song of my artist journey. The skin condition shapes XTIE’s identity as a person and as an artist.

NEW ALBUM
2023 June - APOLLO 23 (EP)
Sophomore Album Plan (Currently in production)
Featuring different women and non binary creators in music
“an oxymoron in literature” (New and Classic), ‘new classic’ juxtaposes concepts and ideas, as well as showcasing XTIE’s uniqueness by encapsulating the embodiment of many contradictory qualities within one single person. In this upcoming album which includes her previous hit Frenemy, she explores the contradictory paradox we all face in this world of absurdity, and the challenges we face in our twenties.
