***Treasure*** is the debut extended play (EP) of Swedish pop singer LÉON. It was released to streaming on 23 October 2015 by Columbia Records. The EP was a collaborative project between LÉON and producer & former classmate Agrin Rahmani.

The EP was preceded by three singles, breakout hit "Tired of Talking," "Nobody Cares," and "Treasure." After the lead single got noticed by pop star Katy Perry and garnered millions of streams online, LÉON was deemed "one to watch" and solidified herself as an artist on the rise.

## Background

LÉON and Rahmani met during their time at Swedish songwriting & producing program Musikmakarna when the two were paired together by their teachers. The duo created the eventual lead single "Tired of Talking," and after encouragement from Rahmani, LÉON posted the song to Soundcloud on 3 July 2015. In one week, the single garnered over 100,000 plays and eventually caught the attention of record executive Chris Anokute and Katy Perry, the latter of whom tweeted about LÉON, "she's one to watch!" LÉON later signed to Columbia Records. Under the new label, LÉON and Rahmani created the debut EP and released it on streaming platforms on 23 October 2016.

LÉON revealed in a 2016 interview that there was supposed to be more than four tracks on the EP, but she eventually decided on the final songs because she felt they fit together.

## Singles

"Tired of Talking" was originally released on Soundcloud on 3 July 2015. After its immediate popularity, the single was released to streaming two months later on 25 September 2015.

"Nobody Cares," like its predecessor, was released on Soundcloud ahead of the EP on 24 August 2015 and was re-released to streaming along with the rest of the EP.

"Treasure" was also released to Soundcloud on 20 October 2015, just three days prior to the EP's release.
