Happy Sarawak/SAYA, KAMU Day!
It is indeed not a coincidence (as there are none =)), that this video is released on this day, as I wanted it to be birthed on a special day as this was a special video made possible by wonderful people.
This song was conceived whilst I was on an extended trip in Bali last year, after i had performed for Soundrenaline Festival, I decided to treat myself and stayed for a few extra days and experience Bali and it's generosity in giving me inspirations always. Perhaps it is why, it is called 'Saya, Kamu' instead of 'Saya, Awalk'. Haha!
With much excitement, of my first ever song in FULL MALAY, I insisted on it to be recorded here in Malaysia, with our homegrown talents, so with the help of Muhd Irhas (Payung of Salammusik) with producing this track, I got together my trustee bandmates to help bring the song alive, Santosh Logandran (percussions), Raja Farouk (Bass), and my new partner in music, flown in from Bali, Reno Pratama to put his harmonica touches on it.
It is a simple tune, though i felt that it needed visuals to go with it.
Then came the search for the talents.
I had seen Stu on a friend's Instagram and thought he'd be perfect for the part, then we directed to the beautiful, Liana, whom we also approached via Instagram. So, thank you, Instagram!
Stu then connected us to his friends who ran their own production company, the good folks over at Posse Production.
We then began the treatment for the video, then on to shooting it.
The whole production crew, comprised of young, passionate and talented individuals, gave the project their best foot forward and created what you see now.
I believe in giving young people chances and a platform to showcase their brilliant qualities, just in hopes that through our collaboration, it will propel them and take them to more amazing journeys!
Also, a nice side story, the two main talents who met on set, are now a real-life couple.
Ahh... My heart.
So here it is, once again... The music video for 'Saya, Kamu'.

Mengaku dirinya Muslim tetapi menuduh orang Islam sembah berhala! Mengaku dirinya Muslim tetapi suruh solat Jumaat dibawa ke Sabtu! Sekarang cabar saya pula untuk ke London dan akan ‘bungkus ideologi Wahabi saya.’
.
1) Saya bukan Wahabi maka tiada keperluan nak ‘bungkuskan ideologi Wahabi saya’.
.
2) Kalau dia pandai dan nak bungkuskan orang, tak pernah saya lihat video dia berdebat dengan Muslim di Speaker Corner setakat ini atau dia risau segala ideologi sesatnya akan dibungkuskan oleh para pendebat Islam di sana?
.
3) Farouk, prove your worry dengan debat dengan pendebat Islam di Speaker Corner dulu memandangkan anda suka panggil orang ke London untuk debat dengan anda. I can get them to contact you if you want.
.
4) Ideologi yang dibawa dia & gengnya sering dijadikan rujukan oleh media liberal. Persoalan untuk media, kenapa seringkali lebih membawa individu-individu berideologi sesat seperti beliau and the gang untuk menulis di media jikalau anda tidak cenderung kepada ideologi sesat mereka?
.
5) Kalau berikan ruang kepada mereka, kenapa seringkali jawapan balas dari umat Islam tidak diberikan ruang untuk muncul atau anda takut hujah Muslim akan runtuhkan kredibiliti mereka dan menampakkan anda sebagai media Islamophobia?
.
Sahabat semua tak perlu mencaci maki mereka tetapi doakan mereka dikurniakan hidayah oleh Allah untuk kembali kepada ajaran Islam yang sebenar. Mereka suka provok, kita jawab elok dan lepas jawab elok tak nak berubah, kita serahkan urusan mereka kepada Allah Subhana Wa Ta’ala. .
