00:00 We are tired and sometimes we burn out. But that's it, just for fun.
00:07 [Music]
00:31 Have you heard of Pak Abu's song? - What song is that?
00:35 It's a song by Pak Abu's fan club. - Blackpink or Pak Abu?
00:40 Have you heard the new song? - The last song I heard was Pink Venom.
00:45 I've been holding back from listening to the latest song.
00:52 Why? - Because I want to do a reaction.
00:55 Oh, you want to do a reaction. - My reaction to the whole album.
00:58 So, you're doing a full album now. - Yes.
01:01 How many songs are there in one album? - I haven't checked yet.
01:06 I know the MV for Shut Down has been released.
01:09 So, the songs below are like...
01:12 Be patient, Sara. The time will come.
01:15 Shut Down is the title song of Blackpink.
01:17 But we're not going to talk about Blackpink.
01:19 We're going to talk about Sara Suhairi. - Okay.
01:22 Sara Suhairi, not Pak Abu. I'm asking you.
01:25 Don't you want to form a group?
01:28 A group? - Yes.
01:31 Do you want to be in my group? - Maybe.
01:35 Maybe?
01:37 To be honest, I've been watching Pitch Perfect since I was a kid.
01:44 I've been enjoying having a group of singers.
01:50 But when the K-pop era came, I thought it would be better if the group could dance.
01:55 I really want to join.
01:59 I don't know. I established as a solo singer.
02:03 But maybe, we'll find a partner to join us.
02:12 Maybe we can form a new group or do something fresh.
02:16 Who knows?
02:18 This is my first time to be here.
02:21 I'm excited because I've always interviewed senior artists.
02:26 So, when I have a junior artist, I'm like...
02:30 I'm not a big fan of entertainment.
02:37 But I know you. - Really?
02:40 You're a champion. - You mean, I'm a champion?
02:45 Sure. - This episode will be long.
02:48 You're a champion of a reality show. - Yes.
02:53 How do you personally see the reality show as a stepping stone...
03:02 ...for an artist in this context?
03:06 I see the reality show because I've been watching many shows on TV.
03:14 I've been watching people singing, acting, hosting and so on.
03:19 I'm fascinated by the beauty of being there.
03:26 I've never been in a reality show since I was a kid.
03:30 I only watched it from afar.
03:32 I watched people auditioning at malls.
03:35 In the past, auditions were random.
03:39 I thought I could try it one day.
03:44 I was able to apply for a reality show in Malaysia.
03:49 It was one of the shows that gave me a lot of experience.
03:55 I learned a lot from that show.
03:58 I think it's all about your own luck.
04:02 Sometimes, people forget about reality shows.
04:11 Sometimes, it ends there.
04:13 But for me, as a singer, I need to put in a lot of effort...
04:22 ...to sustain myself in the industry.
04:25 So, it's a struggle. - It's a struggle.
04:29 People only see the beautiful things.
04:32 People only see the beautiful things in other people's eyes.
04:37 They think it's easy to be a singer.
04:39 It's not hard to get this and that.
04:43 To get those things, there are many things that are behind the scenes.
04:47 The people working with you are very tired.
04:51 Sometimes, we burn out.
04:54 But to entertain people, we need to continue in this field.
05:03 Let me be the candle that lights up the lives of others.
05:08 What is the struggle that you think is the hardest?
05:16 Maybe, people don't see me as someone who has bad habits.
05:26 Maybe, people think I'm too much.
05:30 You don't have any, right? - Not anymore.
05:32 You don't have any? - I don't.
05:34 I don't have any. - I don't want to.
05:37 I don't want to ask for things like that.
05:39 But, to say that there are things that pressure you...
05:46 ...and make you feel sad and want to leave this industry...
05:51 ...sometimes, it comes and goes.
05:54 There's no specific reason.
05:56 Sometimes, there's a timing that makes it hard for you to be a singer.
06:03 It's not easy to be a singer.
06:06 Sometimes, people come and go.
06:10 Artists come and go.
06:11 Singers come and go.
06:13 But, true artists remain.
06:15 So, for us, you don't see yourself as someone who wants to hit all the time.
06:21 For you, everyone has their own blessings.
06:25 But, what's important for you is to sustain in the industry.
06:29 How do you want to stay relevant in the music industry?
06:35 Do you act? - Sometimes, I do.
06:38 How do you do it? Do you want to act or be versatile?
06:42 There are artists who sing, do business, act...
06:47 ...and become composers.
06:49 They sell their products online.
06:51 They have to do that to stay relevant and pay the bill.
06:56 That's right.
06:58 Everyone needs money now.
07:00 People say that money can't buy happiness.
07:03 That's not true.
07:05 We have a lot of commitments in the industry.
07:07 Sometimes, we have to choose what to do.
07:12 For me, honestly...
07:16 ...because we want to stay in the industry, we have to take on a lot of responsibilities.
07:21 We still have our family.
07:23 We have to make our family happy while they're still around.
07:28 For me, to stay relevant, we have to experiment.
07:36 Because, nowadays, everything is social media.
07:41 Everything is on the edge.
07:43 We have to look for things that will make us stay relevant.
07:49 But, at the same time, I don't look for things that are bad to be viral.
07:53 Sometimes, people look for things that are bad for a while.
07:57 But, people will pay attention to it.
07:59 For me, people will remember those things.
08:02 But, it's not sweet to remember those things.
08:06 Sometimes, it's been 10 years.
08:08 But, people still remember that they did those things before.
08:11 I don't want to have such an impression on me from others.
08:16 Don't look for cheap publicity.
08:18 That's the rough term.
08:20 Be yourself.
08:22 I can be myself.
08:24 But, we have to think about the consequences.
08:28 Yes, that's right.
08:29 If you're not a singer, not an artist, what would you be?
08:36 If I'm not a singer, I might be a quantity surveyor.
08:44 Oh, QS.
08:45 QS.
08:46 What does QS do?
08:48 It's a material measurement teacher.
08:50 Material measurement teacher.
08:51 Yes, it's a material measurement teacher.
08:53 My father has a company.
08:56 A construction company.
08:57 After SPM, I was a part-time worker.
09:00 I had a QS.
09:02 You worked with your father.
09:04 Yes, my father.
09:05 But, without any knowledge, after SPM, I was a bit confused.
09:12 Because, we wanted to make a tender.
09:14 We wanted to complete the tender.
09:15 We had to submit the M&Q.
09:17 There were a lot of things.
09:19 I learned a lot.
09:21 Even though I didn't have a qualification, I was still working.
09:24 We got a thick tender.
09:26 The staff gave it to us.
09:27 I looked at what they wanted.
09:29 We started to google the terms we had never seen before.
09:34 Because, when we entered the company, we were confused.
09:37 What did they want?
09:38 Did we have to read the terms?
09:40 We were confused.
09:41 But, even though we were scared, it was my father's company.
09:47 We were new staff.
09:49 We were used to the staff.
09:50 Even though I knew all the staff.
09:53 Because, I had worked for a long time.
09:55 I knew they were loyal workers.
09:59 They dedicated themselves to their work.
10:04 If I wasn't in the music industry, I would be in the construction industry.
10:12 I would be in the site visit.
10:14 I can't imagine you working like that.
10:17 But, was it your soul?
10:19 Was it your artistic soul?
10:21 You didn't have any singers or actors in your family, right?
10:24 No.
10:25 How was it?
10:26 Actually, I didn't have any actors in the industry.
10:29 Where did your artistic blood come from?
10:32 Maybe because my father loved to sing.
10:36 He loved karaoke.
10:37 When I was young, I was always brought to karaoke.
10:40 With your father?
10:41 Yes, with my father and the whole family.
10:43 Sometimes, we had karaoke sets at home.
10:46 We had speakers and mics.
10:49 We sang.
10:50 We sang.
10:51 There was a time when my father came home from work.
10:55 After he came home from work, he would bring his guitar out for dinner.
10:59 He would hang out outside the house.
11:01 It was cold at night.
11:03 I still remember that he had a file.
11:05 It was thick.
11:07 There were lyrics and chords in the file.
11:13 I still have the file.
11:15 There were Indonesian songs, Raja U, Peter Pan songs.
11:20 I listened to all of them when I was young.
11:23 I was in kindergarten at the time.
11:25 I hung out with my father outside the house.
11:27 We sang along.
11:28 Since I was young, my father would feed me with songs.
11:33 The songs were famous at that time.
11:36 But your father didn't support this place.
11:39 No, he supported it.
11:41 There were many wing stars and so on.
11:43 Yes, that's right.
11:44 How old is your father?
11:45 My father is 50 years old now.
11:47 Praise be to God.
11:48 He is still healthy.
11:49 He is still working.
11:50 People say that he is healthy.
11:52 He is not sick.
11:55 Praise be to God.
11:57 He is the one who influenced me to be in this industry.
12:00 Your father?
12:01 Yes, my father.
12:02 One of you is a grandfather?
12:04 I am the second child.
12:05 You have a brother?
12:06 Yes, I have a brother.
12:07 My brother is also interested in music.
12:09 He plays the instrument and electric guitar.
12:11 My father used to have a band.
12:13 He had electric guitar, acoustic guitar, bass guitar, and so on.
12:19 I started playing when I was 9 years old.
12:24 I was in the piano class.
12:26 I played the instrument too.
12:27 People at home were very excited.
12:29 Some of them played the bass, some the guitar, and some the piano.
12:32 We made a band at home.
12:34 I have had the feeling of having a band since I was a child.
12:38 This is what I want to ask.
12:40 In your time, when we played music, our parents did not allow us to.
12:45 They said, "You don't have to play the piano, learn to play the guitar, or go to the vocal class.
12:50 Why do you want to sing?"
12:52 But many young artists today,
12:54 you see, they are okay.
12:56 They sing, compose songs, learn to play the guitar, play the piano, and play the drum.
13:02 They can succeed in life.
13:03 What is your opinion, Suhairy?
13:05 My opinion is that everyone has their own interests.
13:09 We cannot stop whatever people are interested in.
13:14 Because sometimes, this interest will take us to a place that we did not expect.
13:19 Because sometimes, it looks easy on other people, but it is not for us.
13:24 Sometimes, people see it as, "Oh, what for? Don't waste your time."
13:29 But people do not understand our passion.
13:32 People do not understand what we are really interested in.
13:34 If people are interested in collecting stamps,
13:36 they do not have to collect stamps.
13:38 Maybe they will feel, "Oh, I'm interested in this stamp."
13:42 There are many types of things that people keep, people remember.
13:49 So, in our experience in music, we will meet all kinds of people.
13:54 We will meet sectionists, we will exchange knowledge, and so on.
13:57 Everyone has their own sentimental value for themselves.
14:03 So, for you, if you are interested, go ahead.
14:06 Go ahead.
14:07 Follow your passion.
14:08 That's right.
14:09 Because in my opinion, if we do not feel that it is a waste,
14:15 if we feel that it is our soul, if we like it,
14:19 make it as a representative of our life.
14:23 That's right.
14:24 Am I right?
14:25 That's right, Pak Abu.
14:26 If you are interested, Pak Abu is…
14:29 Pak Abu, you want to make a book later?
14:31 I will buy it. Don't forget to buy it.
14:33 Don't buy it. Pak Abu will give it for free.
14:35 Pak Abu will give it for free.
14:36 Sarah Suhairi, 5 years will come. Where?
14:40 Wow.
14:41 How old are you now, if you can share?
14:43 Now, Sarah is just 22.
14:45 Alhamdulillah.
14:46 Alhamdulillah.
14:47 Same age.
14:48 Same age.
14:49 Same age as Pak Abu's daughter.
14:50 It can't be the same age as Pak Abu.
14:51 22 years.
14:52 22 years. In 5 years, it means 27.
14:55 Okay.
14:56 Where am I in 5 years?
14:58 In the Philippines, or already have a band, or become a composer,
15:02 or become a famous actor.
15:04 Alamak, it's hard for us to say.
15:07 But the target is definitely there.
15:09 But indeed, in life, actually, many things can happen.
15:15 In 5 years, maybe a short time, but a lot of things can happen in 5 years.
15:21 So, it's hard for me to predict where I am, but insyaAllah I'm still in the industry.
15:26 InsyaAllah.
15:27 InsyaAllah. Alhamdulillah.
15:28 Pak Abu wants to ask a little, but Pak Abu is afraid to ask you.
15:31 Because when there's a question like this, Pak Abu has asked,
15:35 he feels like he's stuck.
15:37 But I don't know, Pak Abu, try to ask.
15:39 Okay.
15:40 Can you?
15:41 I'll try to listen.
15:42 Pak Abu has a lot of friends who are still single, still solo.
15:46 His way of life is, he's looking for a partner.
15:50 Have you seen the question, Pak Abu?
15:52 I haven't seen it yet.
15:53 You haven't seen it yet? Okay.
15:54 It's a little difficult.
15:57 Do you have any tips for finding a partner who is the same age as you,
16:02 who is compatible with you, in the computer language?
16:06 Yes.
16:07 His tips.
16:09 Are you still single or happy?
16:12 I'm still single at the moment.
16:14 And happy, right?
16:15 Happy.
16:16 Happy.
16:17 Who said I'm sad?
16:18 Solo is happy.
16:19 You can do anything.
16:20 This is for those who are single and unhappy.
16:23 What tips?
16:25 Maybe some words of encouragement.
16:27 Sometimes, we see too much of others.
16:32 We see too much of other people's happiness.
16:35 Until we forget that our happiness is not the same as what we see in others.
16:42 MashaAllah.
16:43 How do I say this?
16:44 It's difficult for us to see things that we actually...
16:52 It's easier to say it like this.
16:54 Say it in Malay.
16:56 Okay, in Malay.
16:58 Sometimes, we see things that we don't have.
17:02 But we don't see what we have.
17:04 We actually have a lot of things that can make us happy.
17:12 We already have those things.
17:14 Allah has given us the blessings.
17:16 But we also want things that we don't have.
17:19 Because we don't appreciate what we have.
17:22 I understand.
17:23 Sometimes, we see things that we can enjoy.
17:29 But actually, we have other things that are better than what we want.
17:35 Sometimes, we overlook it.
17:37 And now, in this social media era, we see things that are already trendsetters.
17:44 Whatever people do, we want it too.
17:47 Whatever people get, we want it too.
17:49 But we don't see what we already have.
17:52 What we already have is normal.
17:54 We already have it, but we forget.
17:56 If we don't get it, we feel sad.
18:00 But that's it.
18:01 What I can say to single people out there who might not be happy.
18:06 We should recap what we have already got.
18:11 We should appreciate it.
18:13 We should remind ourselves that happiness is actually within us.
18:18 You look sad.
18:21 No, I'm not sad.
18:24 I'm not sad.
18:25 I'm just happy.
18:26 I hope you guys out there will always be happy.
18:30 Don't worry about being single.
18:32 Don't worry about not having a partner.
18:34 Don't compare yourself to others.
18:37 If you compare yourself to others in terms of goodness, why not?
18:41 Ha! I heard you have a new song.
18:43 I see that the trend now is that the song is about white people.
18:48 But the lyrics are in Malay.
18:51 How is that?
18:53 I'm not asking you.
18:54 We're not trying to be fancy.
19:00 Maybe you want to sell it to the outside world.
19:02 To the outside world.
19:03 Actually, I have a dream.
19:05 I just released my latest single.
19:09 Praise be to God.
19:10 Tell the world.
19:11 Burn!
19:12 Burn?
19:13 I'm your friend, Burn.
19:14 Bakor?
19:15 Yes.
19:16 Oh, Burn is B-U-R-N.
19:18 Yes, B-U-R-N.
19:19 Why did you make this song?
19:20 Okay.
19:23 I've done a lot of singles and duets.
19:28 And all of them are ballads.
19:29 All of them are sad, crying, and all kinds of things.
19:34 But this time, even though it was left out, even though it was cheated, we...
19:40 I can't wait to hear this song.
19:44 Really?
19:45 What is it about?
19:46 It's more about anger.
19:49 Anger that is like, "Oh, you cheated. We didn't notice."
19:54 "You played the three of clubs behind us. We didn't notice."
19:59 But the song is more like, "Why don't you appreciate me?"
20:07 But it ends up with, "I'll just move on."
20:10 Like that.
20:11 So, how do you want this song to be received?
20:14 To the women who are hurt, please listen to this song, Burn.
20:18 But don't burn your ex's house.
20:21 Don't.
20:22 Don't.
20:23 So, you've heard the new song on YouTube?
20:25 It's already on YouTube.
20:26 It's on the digital platform.
20:27 If you want to see my MV, if you want to know how many clothes and makeup looks I've delivered,
20:32 you can watch the MV on Music Video.
20:35 Burn.
20:36 Who made this song?
20:37 The composer and lyricist is Api Papol.
20:41 He's from Sabah.
20:42 Oh, is this your first time?
20:44 It's my first time working with Api Papol.
20:45 And it's also his first time on the mainstream.
20:48 Before this, he did a lot of underground.
20:50 So, this is my first time working with him.
20:53 And he's also the first time on the mainstream.
20:56 So, it's a new experience for me and for him.
21:01 We also worked on the lyrics together.
21:05 He gave me the concept and the lyrics.
21:11 And I adapted it to my comfort.
21:14 I see.
21:15 What genre is the song?
21:18 I can say it's pop.
21:20 Something fast.
21:22 Because we've done a lot of things before this.
21:24 But we're not doing it anymore.
21:25 We're rising.
21:26 We're rising.
21:27 Women out there, listen to Cardburn.
21:30 It's like you're getting revenge.
21:33 So, do you have any last words?
21:35 There's a new song, maybe a new drama or film, or a new project for this year or next year?
21:42 Okay.
21:44 First of all, I just released a single.
21:47 For those who haven't listened to Cardburn,
21:52 Streaming Burn, you have to listen to the song from the beginning to the end.
21:55 Don't skip it.
21:56 Some people only listen to the chorus?
21:59 Some people skip the first minute.
22:01 Do you know who?
22:03 Who?
22:04 It's me.
22:05 Listen to it for a minute, then skip to the next song.
22:09 Maybe because we've recorded it for a long time.
22:12 We've been shooting for two days, and we've listened to the same song 3,000 times.
22:16 So, we've listened to it for a minute, and we know the song.
22:19 But the new song, we've repeated it many times.
22:22 For those who haven't watched the music video, you can search for Burn by Sarah Suhaidy.
22:27 It's on the MVM Music YouTube channel.
22:30 Don't forget to watch it.
22:31 There are new elements that I've brought to the MV.
22:37 If you want to watch it, you can check out the music video of Burn.
22:40 And to all of you who are watching this video,
22:45 please support all the works of Tanah Airi.

22:50 I like the spirit of young people like Sarah Suhaidy.
22:54 Even though she struggles,
22:56 but she's still a sister.
22:58 Keep going.
22:59 Keep going.
23:00 Don't reverse, unless you have to reverse.
23:03 Is that right?
23:04 There will be a time when you have to reverse, but be careful.
23:08 If you have to make a U-turn, make a U-turn.
23:10 Don't ever break it again.
23:12 Thank you, Sarah Suhaidy.
