On Spotify’s website, on the singer’s profile it says, “For mrld, music is not just about iconic melody, lyrics, and it's whereabouts—it's about how you express every detail of scenery that your mind creates. The singer-songwriter from the Philippines etched a part of acoustic pop and mellow; that talks about emotions. Meriel de Jesus—also known as mrld, is looking forward to releasing more of pop music, since her mind is very flexible when it comes to different genres.

“Fans have witnessed how Meriel has grown as an artist from a kid who covers on social platforms, to writing her own songs—releasing them on huge music platforms.

“Music for de Jesus is not just about recognition and fame; it's about how she connects with people's emotions through her songs without it being direct. Using metaphors and hit lines to strike people's attention with every word she plots in her songs. ‘I want people to know me because I marked their hearts with songs that I was capable of writing. Hence my lack of experience in life, I want to portray as if I am someone who's wise enough to tell my own story.’”

"Knowing that most of the people that know me are also dreaming to be where I am right now, despite the small achievements I have, I want to prove it to them that starting at the age of 14 will do you no harm at all, and that everything takes time," her profile added.
