'Paling Malaysia' rap contest offers RM5,000 prize
MALAYSIANS with a flair for rhythm and local pride stand a chance to win RM5,000 by taking part in Media Prima's 'Rap Paling Malaysia' contest.
Open until Aug 11, the contest invites participants to submit a 30-second to one-minute rap video that captures what it means to be 'Paling Malaysia'.
The entry must include at least one of the following phrases: "Paling Malaysia", "Confirm Malaysia", or "Rojak".
Entries can be uploaded on TikTok or Instagram using a public account, with the hashtags #MediaPrima, #OhBulan, #RapPalingMalaysia and #ConfirmMalaysiaMPB.
To complete the entry, participants must submit their video link via this official Google Form.
There is no limit to the number of submissions, whether solo or in a group.
According to the organisers, creativity, relatability and a strong Malaysian identity are key judging criteria.
"We're looking for the most creative, relatable, and full-of-Malaysia-vibes rap! Whether it's about nasi lemak, football fever, or mum's legendary rendang – as long as it screams 'Paling Malaysia', we want to hear it!" the organiser said in a statement.
