Amir Masdi's appearance on the stage of the 35th Anugerah Juara Lagu (AJL 35) for the first time last year opened the eyes of many to his true abilities. In fact, since then, Amir, 25, or his real name Amir Syazwan Masdi has continued to be the focus of attention besides gathering him new fans.
Confident with modern rock as the genre of choice, Amir, who has gained popularity through the songs 'Puas', 'Kau Sakiti' and 'Asmara', unleashed his latest release 'Esok' tomorrow. The song published by Nova Music was penned by Shazee Ishak, Audi Mok and Amir himself, was recorded at the beginning of this year.
"The concept, ideas and lyrics for the song were mine. I wanted to convey something that could motivate and inspire since everyone is in a gloomy mood due to a prolonged pandemic," expressed Amir.
“So, through the lyrics of this song, I want to persuade and calm people. Shazee understood what I was trying to convey and wrote the lyrics. I'm not very good at writing song lyrics, that's why I asked for his help.
"Tomorrow's song has been prepared since the beginning of this year. Coincidentally I also have a few other songs to launch as the latest single. In fact, follow the original plan to release a song whose music is more 'up beat'. But after discussing with the team, everyone agreed to launch the song "Esok first," he said.
According to Amir, the music genre that is featured has become a 'trademark' of the music that he brings, apart from it is also close to the hearts of his fans.
“I set this music genre because I feel that people have started to know and accept the direction of my music. Fans already know I'm a singer of this genre. At the same time, I really enjoy this genre.
"Even if the slow-paced song is like a 'slow ballad', I added the appropriate elements to make it more towards 'modern rock'. For "Esok", I originally wanted the piano, but when I thought back, it wasn't loud enough. So I went back to the original plan, ”he said.
Amir also admitted that his involvement on the AJL 35 stage succeeded in highlighting his singing talent.
“For me, AJL makes me get new fans. Since then, people have started to want to know more about who Amir Masdi is. Admittedly from time immemorial I have always worked hard in my career. I planted myself a determination not to feel comfortable with what was accomplished.
“For example, even though I have managed to enter AJL, it does not mean I have to rest because I am already on the stage. Instead, I need to keep working and improve my achievements in the future. Even though I have entered AJL, if possible after this I am determined to win.
“At the same time, I want there to always be an improvement in my career to continue to survive in the industry. Because of that, I will continue to work and improve myself, "he said.
Sharing about the image carried, Amir said he was comfortable with such an image i.e. long hair.
"Some criticized because there are significant changes and it looks more rock. Probably because of appearance and hair. This will be my permanent image and I am comfortable with this image. Many agree as well.
"In fact, personally I see this image as most suitable for me. In the future, not sure yet. If you find a new idea, it will change. But for now I will stick with this image. I am okay and happy, ”he said.
The song ‘Esok’ by Nova Music will be launched on 27 August ‘21 and can start streaming on all digital music platforms on that day.
