Life and career

He continued his craft as a busker in Kuala Lumpur, notably in Central Market. He was the most prolific local independent singer-songwriter with seven albums, and in a 2008 interview following his album Sakrat (songs based on poems by rising Malaysian poet Amirul Fakir), he stated that he planned to release one album a year. He relocated with his family to Ipoh, Perak, in 2006, where he also recorded, but often made trips back to Kuala Lumpur to perform. His critically acclaimed album Script error: No such module "Lang".
