Do you personally know of any Malay that mostly listens to English music?

Exclude the following persons from the list, the Bangsar/Bukit Tunku elite, members of royal households and those that are of mixed parentage.

Are they as rare as it appears to be? I remembered many years ago I had a friend and neighbour that lived several doors away from my parents' then house, it was a weird situation because in the morning I would ride in his dad's car to go to my school while he would ride in my dad's car to go to his school. It was a without fail moment that his dad would listen to Nat King Cole, Beatles, Frank Sinatra, Paul Anka, Glenn Campbell and John Denver on that cassette player found in that government issue Mercedes W123, yes at that time as a DG of a government department you could get a Mercedes W123 or a Volvo 240 unlike now where it would only be a useless Proton Perdana. Also could remember that the entire family spoke flawlessly in English among each other and without any fake accents.

Wonder why it is so rare these days to find a Malay family that converses in English?

I listen to mostly japanese and koreans songs

Ayam only listen to dangdut rhoma irama

Maybe you hang out too much in wangsa maju or some rempit crowd lol. All my Malay friends speak great English

?

how detached can you be lmao

Lagu melayu kena tengok mood bai.

Been listening to mostly kpop songs since 2015.

ts really need to talk to more pipul

like a lot

I for one speak English to the point where people are not sure if I was a Malay or an Indian expatriate

i dun think so,

many youngsters Malay i bump into can sing hitz english songs~~~~~~

My family dont converse in english, we speak klate.. But i knows all my siblings can speak english well if we want to.

My malay friends as well, at least in my circle. Outside my circle of coz there are some that cant speak english esp old frends that stay in village etc

If I look into the mirror I'll see that person. Why? When I was in kampung school, ayam the rare one. When I move to elite school, it's a common scene

This. Sendu Malay songs hit differently. Like adding salt to injury

I can tell - you’re really adept with the language and you write really well, even on /k!

Yeah. Very rare. Even all my rich friends anak menteri, anak businessman, anak kerabat & etc still listen to malay song.

It’s very rare to find malay family that converse in English because we are in Malaysia. None of my rich friends 100% converse in English despite getting band 9 in IELTS and have suksesful parents.

Samo kito bohh. Sek amareka. Mari mode amareka kito skipping supo ore putih.

I prefer mix fm but my colleague want sinar or era

Me. English and japanese songs

I don't listen to local songs.

Proudly one, dont like those crappy jiwang songs

Even luqman podolski has great taste remixing English songs to Malay

I'm one of the Malay guy that listen to English songs 100%

Radio channels all english radio station.

I don't like listen to malay music tbh, even the classic Malay songs also I don't like.

And tbh, I don't even know the latest malay singer that currently popular. Only know siti nurhaliza, misha omar and some senior singers but still rarely listening to their music

English songs are way better and more choices. Even other language songs are also better such as Mandarin, Japanese etc.

i like 80s english, lite fm kind

but these days radio too many nonsense commercials

rarely listen to malay songs ever since young

prob because lived in america for 3 years from 4 to 6 kinda brainwashed my brain to listen english songs more

i listen to english songs all the time due to my dad's influence. Do layan malay songs now and then but not into it except retro ones.

Since 98 i start listening to english radio especially hitz and fly fm

And when i married with english speaker so in house 100% english mix a little bit malay.

Tbh I don’t like malay song too much simple musical instrument

I’m from kampung up north now living in kl btw

Older malay song pre 2008, sure
Mostly listen to Jepunis, even the english ones I listen to are older ones, pre 2010s

New songs sound the same to me

NWA & WuTang Clan > all

Most malays do listen to english songs.

I don't listen to English pop songs, i mostly listen to metal, rock and occasionally rap / hip-hop

Itulah kau, suruh kembangkan circle of friends xnak. Asyik nak assabiyah dan berpuak je. Xnak tahu menahu pasal orang lain.

I looked up your profile before, you can passed off as an Indian. Try do the head bobble next time when you converse with someone 😂

My ex classmate listen to English music. She has perfect English, now an English lecturer in Murica. She is beautiful, smart and open-minded. I have crush with her before ❤️. I miss her

Recommend good new japanese songs

maybe got 1-2 rare underground malay song but that it.

u puak mainstream apa tahu? LOL.

So far tarak. Cos i hardly listen to any songs now (be it english or nihongo).
