Lariss’ sultry music video for “Dale Papi” became an overnight viral sensation on YouTube around the world. Directed by Khaled Mokhtar, best known for his work with international hit artists including Alexandra Stan (“Cherry Pop”), Inna (“Be My Lover”), and Antonia (“Marabou”), the video introduced the world to Lariss and has generated more than fifty-five million views on YouTube to date. For the US debut of her single, Lariss teamed up with iconic US Hip-Hop artist K7, best known for his Hit single “Come Baby Come” which reached #18 on the Billboard Hot 100 and #3 on the UK Singles Chart, to add a fresh new touch on her hot Latin single.
Lariss loved music when she was a little child. Her first official contact with music started at the age of seven when she began taking violin lessons at the National Art College “Octav Bancila” in the city of Iasi, Romania. In fifth grade, she began studying the piano, and was also in a vocal chorus group which allowed her to participate in different competitions, school olympics, and concerts in Europe, in countries such as Italy, Holland, Belgium and Austria. Lariss also performed byzantine and chorus music for the Romanian Church.
