MIREI was also featured in Vy Higginsen's Gospel For Teens (the prestigious choir which won national competitions and got Emmy for CBS/60 Minutes documentary), winning first place at the legendary Amateur Night at Apollo and releasing her US debut single, "Tattoo" when she was only 14. On June 25th 2014, MIREI released her major debut single, "Fallin' Out/I Wanna No feat. SHUN" from Sony Music Japan and scored #1 on iTunes R&B/Soul chart followed by her special appearance at BETX during the 2014 BET Awards in Los Angeles along with young US R&B stars like Tinashe, Jacob Latimore and more.
