Malaysia's New Queen of Rap
Lil Asian Thiccie has always wanted to do music since young, but she never considered it a full-time option until her smashing single with fellow local rapper Zamaera, Get Munni, was released in June early this year.
The SonaOne-produced song, with a boppin’ music video directed by ATG, even earned her a slot at GVF2019.
According to the accidental rapper with a love for R&B in an interview with The Sun, “I think if I had to go back in time and tell myself when I was six that I would be doing music ...it would be so surreal cause the opportunity is right there for me. It’s so close. I just have to work harder.”
“It’s really weird, because when I was little, I always wanted to do music. I always wanted to be a singer but I am so shy about singing. Like I can talk, I can talk to anybody.
“I’m really terrified, I’m terrified. I thought that I would never do it. I’ve always known people in the music industry and it’s just like wow, I wish I could do this, you know, I wish I could be where they’re at. I used to hang out with the underground people, Hoax Vision and basically, the way they make music was, just take out a mic, just do anything and they wouldn’t judge.
“That really encouraged me. They were rappers, so I was like, you know, I can do this. Rapping is so easy,"
“So at 2am on a Monday night, my friend and her boyfriend were in my room and we recorded a song on like an Apple mic and this really old ass laptop. We uploaded it up on SoundCloud at 4am. I woke up at 1pm the next day, and everyone’s texting my phone, asking me if I’m a rapper. And I was like, what? I didn’t send the song at all to anyone. In one week, the song (called hiao ft. Nyonya Business) got 10,000 plays.”
“I will put a lot of time and effort into making music, but it means I will have to compromise a lot on seeing my friends and I really enjoy seeing my friends. I really enjoy like having time with them. I cherish them a lot.”
