#SHOWBIZ: Hail Hael for launching production firm
NOT content with conquering the realms of singing, acting, and composing, Hael Husaini is now spreading his creative wings further by establishing his own production company. Hael revealed that the formation of Huge House Entertainment is a key step in his ambition to achieve even greater success in the music industry, a path that has already seen him strike gold with his recent collaboration with Nadeera Zaini on the hit song "Bukan Lagi Kita." "This has been a long-held dream of mine. While I've been deeply involved in music and songwriting for some time, this venture, which I initially planned to launch with a friend, has been brewing for several years. "Huge House Entertainment has been operational for a few months now, though I initially kept it under wraps. "Our debut project, the collaboration with Nadeera on 'Bukan Lagi Kita,' has proven fruitful. I'm immensely grateful for Nadeera's trust in me," said Hael. Through his own production company, Hael aims to foster collaborations with other production houses and individuals, particularly in the areas of songwriting and lyric writing. "I hope to build and develop an empire that not only shines but also elevates new talents like Nadeera. "Our ultimate goal is to propel Malaysian music to greater heights," he added. Hael emphasised that he doesn't intend to be the sole creative force, expressing his desire to share ideas and expertise with other talented individuals. "We envision nurturing a new generation of producers, composers, and spearheading a multitude of exciting projects. "I'm eager to unveil our upcoming endeavours," he said. "Even though our collaboration on 'Bukan Lagi Kita' is less than a year old, Nadeera is already gearing up to release her album, and I have one in the pipeline as well. "Looking ahead, I'm keen to collaborate with international musicians, as I believe this is crucial for expanding our reach to neighbouring countries and across Asia."

Nadeera on Hael Husaini: He is like an older brother to me
3 Apr - Nadeera couldn't help but laughed off the notion of romance with Hael Husaini, despite having worked with the singer-songwriter multiple times already. The singer, who seemed to be Hael's new muse, what with him writing her hit song "Bukan Lagi Kita" and recording an Eid duet with her, "Meriah Lain Macam", stated that she regarded Hael as nothing more than a big brother that she respected very much. "The first time I worked with him, I didn't expect him to be such a kindhearted and humble person. I gained a lot from our collaboration. He is such a kind brother to me," she said to mStar when asked about it. Nadeera also admitted that she is truly indebted to Hael, who would share a lot of tips and tricks in the industry. "You can say that he is a fun type of brother. He taught me things about vocals, about songwriting and many more. He is not one to be stingy about his knowledge. Only those who know him will know how kind Hael is," she added. In addition to the two songs, Hael and Nadeera also previously collaborated in recording the Gempak Most Wanted Awards theme song.

From a floating piano to a graceful recovery, here are five unforgettable moments from AJL39
KUALA LUMPUR, February 17 — The 39th edition of the annual Malaysia's pop song competition, Anugerah Juara Lagu (AJL39), ended with a bang last night. Held at Axiata Arena Bukit Jalil, AJL39 saw Sabahan singer Marsha Milan crowned champion with her song Hening Rindu, followed by Nadeera Zaini in second place with Bukan Lagi Kita, and Akim & The Majistret securing third place with Saksama. According to Nini Yusof, chief operating officer of Media Prima Television Networks and Primeworks Studios, AJL39 also saw increased fan engagement on social media compared to last year's AJL. The hashtags #AJL39, #NADARASA, and #Marsha have been trending locally on X (formerly known as Twitter) since last night, with over 90,000 posts. For those who missed the excitement of AJL39, fret not. Here's a recap of the top moments that made this year's event truly unforgettable: 1. Sissy Imann and her floating gold piano It was a night of high-calibre entertainment right from the start, as AJL39's host and musician Sissy Imann, who was part of the opening act, was joined by other artists including Wani Kayrie, Shiha Zikir, Ara Johari, and Noki from K-Clique. Together, they performed a medley of famous songs such as Asmaradana by Tiara Jacquelina and Angkat by Mimi Fly. AJL39's host and musician Sissy Imann (right) has captivated audiences by playing the piano while floating several feet above the ground. — Picture by Raymond Manuel Despite the high-energy opening for AJL39, Sissy elevated the excitement by playing a gold piano several feet above the ground, while dancers and singers performed below her. After gracefully descending, she joined the others on stage to conclude the opening act, before later reuniting with her co-host, Nazrudin Rahman. Sissy's stunt captivated many including Nini as well who applaud her bravery. 'I think that the combination of Sissy and Naz is something different and seeing Sissy's bravery to be up there is just unlike anything that we've done before because usually these kinds of stunts are done by the finalists. 'However, because of our spacious stage, we encouraged not just finalists to make the best out of the space but we also gave our host a chance to partake in the opening act as well,' Nini said. The AJL39 opening act also featured 30 dancers and was accompanied by an orchestra team led by esteemed musician Genervie Kam. 2. Aina Abdul's big heart Singer Aina Abdul once again wowed audiences with her avant-garde performance — this time, singing from the heart. Literally. Aina Abdul's giant heart centerpiece during AJL39. — Picture by Raymond Manuel Aina, who claimed the coveted Best Performance award at AJL39, expressed her gratitude to her team, particularly her stage crew, for crafting a stunning heart centrepiece, complete with dangling nerves on either side of the stage. The 31-year-old singer, dressed in red, began her performance of Puas Sudah from within the heart before stepping out and being joined by her dancers. Aina, who had previously spent RM400,000 on her AJL38 performance last year, mentioned that this year's stage setup and outfit were her most expensive yet. However, she declined to share the exact amount, only hinting that it was not over RM500,000. 3. Hael Husaini's graceful recovery Terpeleot punnn lawoooo ekk Hael Husaini! Pandai cover terus silang kaki, memang pro. — Ikhwan (@JatIkhwan) February 16, 2025 Oppa-looking singer Hael Husaini impressed the crowd last night with his quick recovery after tripping over the barrier on his stage set while performing his song 'Diam'. As he was walking backwards during the song, Hael didn't notice the small barriers between the set and tripped, falling backward. However, he quickly recovered, crossing his legs, pose and seamlessly continued his performance. Clips from Hael's performance have been making rounds online, with social media users impressed by how he maintained his vocals despite the hiccup. Although the 37-year-old singer didn't secure a win for his own song Diam, it was still a victory for Hael, as the song he co-wrote for singer Nadeera Zaini, alongside composer Iqie Hugh, titled Bukan Lagi Kita, won second place and earned him a trophy last night. 4. Hafiz Suip's stay-at-home outfit and cameos He also prepared a surprise during the end of his show by bringing on a special cameo by legendary singer Herman Tino who previously made a brief appearance during Hafiz's performance at AJL26 in 2012 where he was crowned champion for his song Awan Nano. Hafiz wasn't the only one who brought a special guest as fellow contestant Amir Masdi had also brought local actress Amelia Henderson on stage for his performance of Sengaja during AJL39. As each finalist of AJL is required to come up with their own stage set design and theme, singer and finalist Hafiz Suip decided to feature a life-size kampung house prop for his performance of Terus Bersinar. The Awan Nano singer delivered a near-perfect performance last night, starting with him lying on a bed inside the kampung house before making his way outside to the stage. Staying true to the theme, Hafiz's outfit for the performance was simple yet fitting — a brown t-shirt paired with black tracksuit pants and a pair of everyday slippers, marking a first on the AJL stage. He also prepared a surprise for his performance by bringing out legendary singer Herman Tino at the end. The music great had previously made a brief appearance during Hafiz's performance at AJL26 in 2012, when he was crowned champion for his song Awan Nano. Hafiz wasn't the only one to bring a special guest; fellow contestant Amir Masdi also had local actress Amelia Henderson join him on stage for his performance of Sengaja during AJL39. 5. Creative use of stage space AJL39 finalist Ernie Zakri's blossoming garden stage setup. — Picture by Raymond Manuel One of the main takeaways from AJL39 is that all 10 finalists truly made the most of their spacious stage, which, according to Nini, is the size of two futsal courts. Unlike previous AJLs, where some finalists opted to perform solo without props or even dancers, this year's maximised use of stage space was well-received by social media users, who shared positive feedback online. In addition to Aina's massive heart centerpiece, other AJL39 finalists also made a strong impression with their stage setups, including Ernie Zakri, who presented a blossoming hanging garden for her Aura performance. Local rappers Benzooloo, Ghidd Isobahtos, Meerfly, Tuju, and MK from K-Clique had a standout stage setup featuring two long dining tables with lamps in the middle, alongside a burning building frame placed slightly behind — offering the audience a unique perspective as each rapper performed their verse from the song Risiko. Meanwhile, local band Masdo, competing at AJL39 with their song Pujaanku featuring Aisyah Aziz, also made the most of their stage space by incorporating a group of dancers who filled the empty spaces as they moved around the stage. i have to say AJL this year kemas. abang Naz and Sissy very santai, takde unnecessary product placement (thank u Samsung), kamera pun tak annoying, stage lawa. sound system laa kena improve lagi sikit. overall good job team #AJL39 !!! — ???????????????????????????? ????
