Leah Dizon’s 4th single, entitled Love Paradox, is the first single following her latest album Destiny Line. After rumors of her retirement from the music industry, Love Paradox really shows how much of a threat Leah really is. Both songs on the single feature lyrics written by Leah, which gives them a nice personal touch. This single was released on the same day as her new photobook Pure Leah! and her first overseas live in Taiwan. Originally, the CD Only version was set to include Love Paradox (Bach Logic Remix) but for unknown reasons was taken off. Love Paradox is an American-style urban track that is Leah’s strongest to date. Leah mentioned that Under The Same Sky is one of her favorite songs that she has written thus far.

Leah Dizon’s fourth single, entitled Love Paradox, is her strongest single to date. Love Paradox, described as being urban and American-styled, is her best song to date. Her vocals are good, the instrumentation is edgy and it suits her perfectly. Under The Same Sky is a soft and sweet midtempo track that features a beautiful instrumentation supported by Leah’s vocals. This single features two great singles and the supporting PV was great as well. Love Paradox is a perfect way to begin a new album era.
