Being a Nominee at the 2023 AMI Awards, Alfin Habib, a DA3 Graduate, Wants Malay Music to Succeed

Kapanlagi.com - Singer Alfin Habib did not expect to be selected as a nominee for the 2303 AMI Awards. Alfin is nominated for the Best Malay Solo/Group/Collaboration Artist category. As a newcomer, Alfin only wants his work to be well-received by music listeners in the country.

Alfin Habib is a singer who graduated from Dangdut Academy Season Three (DA3). At that time, he performed as a duet with his partner, who is also named Alfin, in Duo Alfin. This man from North Sumatra, born in 1993, is also skilled at playing the violin.

Alfin is nicknamed the Lord of Malay because he often performs Malay songs rather than dangdut. Alfin Habib's knowledge of Malay songs is also said to be quite good. Not only that, Alfin also received an honorary title, from the Royal Kejeruan Metar Bilad Deli, North Sumatra, for his contribution to advancing Malay music.

Success is considered as a team work. He feels that he wouldn't be in his current position if there wasn't a good support system around him.

"Alhamdulillah, Habib feels very happy to hear this news. Honestly, I never even thought about it. Especially since I am new to the music world. In my mind, my hope is still for the song Permaisuri Hatiku to find a place in the hearts of listeners," said Alfin.

"But of course, I am very touched because my collaboration with the team has received appreciation from the AMI Awards," Alfin continued.

Alfin also appreciates the performance of the AMI Awards team who provide opportunities for Malay singers to perform. With the presence of this category, Alfin hopes that Malay music can become more well-known.

"Of course, I also want to give the highest appreciation to the AMI Awards team who consistently complete and perfect especially in terms of the nominated categories. This is proven by the addition of the Best Malay Collaboration category. Hopefully, this can also preserve Malay music which is almost extinct in this era," he concluded.

In the same category, Alfin will compete with equally qualified singers such as dangdut singer Erie Suzan with the song Rindu Ayah, MSSTAR with the song Yale Yale, Rani Dahlan, Aziz Taher, Cut Vhannie in the song Datuk Muhammad Yuda, and Rere Reina with the song Satu Suro.
