Meja is the self-titled debut studio album by Swedish singer-songwriter Meja, released in 1996[1] by Epic Records. After being part of dance group Legacy of Sound since 1993, Meja met Lasse Karlsson, then-manager of Ace of Base, who introduced her to songwriter Douglas Carr, who went on to produce the album.[2][3] Meja was a relative failure commercially in Sweden—only charting at number 29—but was a huge success in the Japanese market where it sold 600,000 copies.[4]
