Alban Skënderaj publicly remembered Rinesa Qeriqi, the artist known as Rinesancë, with a brief farewell message shared on social media.

“Rest in peace, Rinesa. Although far too brief, you lived life bravely, like a true ‘Lea’,” the singer wrote, according to reports by Loki Magazine and Bota Sot.

THE “LEA” CONNECTION

The message refers to Rinesa’s appearance in one of Skënderaj’s music videos, where she portrayed the character Lea. The singer chose that role as the central memory in his tribute.

The reaction follows the family’s announcement that the 25-year-old artist had died. ON MEDIA.AL previously covered the main news; this update focuses only on the new public tribute and the artistic connection Skënderaj recalled.
