Aris Demaj (Albanian: [aˈɾis dɛˈmaj]), known professionally as Killua, is an Albanian singer and songwriter.

Life and career

Early life and career beginnings

Killua was born as Aris Demaj into an ethnic Albanian family.[1][2] Demaj caught national attention in the Albanian-speaking Balkans in late 2021, upon the release of "Bageti e Bujqësi" as the lead single from his upcoming debut album, Metamorfoza.[3] The single's title is derived from the poem of the same title written by Albanian poet Naim Frashëri in the 19th century.[4][5] It peaked at number 2 on the Albanian Top 100 in early November 2021 and rose to number one a week later.[6][7] Prior to its solo success, Demaj was featured on Albanian disc jockey Arnon's successful "Te molla" in August 2018.[8] The Albanian-language song became a top 15 single in Albania and reached number 13 in the Commonwealth of Independent States.[8]
