00:00 Have you ever been rushed while busking?
00:02 Yes, I have.
00:03 Hello and welcome to another episode of Motif Trending.
00:11 A segment where we will interview those who are
00:14 hotly criticized by the netizens now.
00:17 And today in the studio, please help me welcome Mr. Kai.
00:29 Hi Kai, have you eaten yet?
00:30 Yes, I have.
00:31 This feels like deja vu.
00:33 It feels like it's been a while.
00:35 It feels like deja vu.
00:36 Have I seen you somewhere before, Kai?
00:38 I think.
00:39 I think maybe I saw you in Bukit Bintang while busking.
00:41 Really?
00:42 If you guys don't know, Kai is now viral on TikTok especially on social media
00:48 because of what he did and he does busking.
00:51 Specifically, is it only in Bukit Bintang or in many other places?
00:56 Yes, there are many places.
00:58 But Bukit Bintang is the main place you do busking?
01:02 Do you know why you're here today, Kai?
01:04 I'm quite confused but I think I know.
01:07 You think you know.
01:08 Do you know why you're trending now?
01:11 Do you know why you're trending right now?
01:12 Because I cover songs.
01:15 As long as I breathe, the breeze
01:20 warms my life.
01:28 Is it true?
01:29 Yes, because you cover songs that all the girls in the streets are falling for
01:34 when they hear you sing.
01:35 I saw the video, by the way.
01:36 Dude, your voice is great, man.
01:38 I want to congratulate you on your voice.
01:39 Thank you, thank you so much.
01:40 Why do you think you're viral?
01:41 I want to ask.
01:42 Why do you think you're viral?
01:43 It's hard to say.
01:44 You think?
01:45 We know because of the cover.
01:47 But why?
01:48 Why do you think you're viral just because of the cover?
01:50 Maybe because the song is trending now.
01:53 The song I covered is trending on TikTok and social media.
01:58 Suddenly, I became viral.
02:00 Because the song was first recorded by someone.
02:04 Then, it suddenly became a hit.
02:06 One million.
02:07 So, you didn't expect that people would record or upload the video?
02:10 No, I didn't expect.
02:11 Because it was the first time I played the song.
02:13 Oh, okay.
02:14 I listened to it.
02:15 I was too lazy to listen to it.
02:17 Then, I decided to bring it to Baski.
02:18 At that time, there weren't many people.
02:20 It wasn't that crowded.
02:21 So, I thought it was a good time to try.
02:23 Okay.
02:24 So, I tried.
02:25 The next day, I saw it on social media that I was viral.
02:28 Seriously, right?
02:35 It was so sudden.
02:36 It was our first time trying.
02:37 Did people tag your name?
02:39 Or did you get a lot of notifications?
02:43 Yes, a lot.
02:44 People started tagging you.
02:45 Then, you ran.
02:46 "Why are people tagging me?"
02:47 I was surprised.
02:48 "Why?"
02:49 Then, I opened the video.
02:50 "Oh, the video is singing."
02:51 Then, my face was a bit red.
02:53 How did you feel at that time?
02:56 In that morning, when you realised that,
02:57 "Oh my gosh, am I viral?"
02:59 "I think I'm getting viral."
03:00 "My phone is not stopped."
03:02 "The notification is coming."
03:03 How did you feel at that time?
03:04 At first, I was a bit red.
03:06 "Am I viral? What did I do?"
03:08 "Did I do something wrong?"
03:09 "It's okay."
03:10 I scrolled through the comments.
03:11 "Oh my gosh, I'm viral."
03:14 I was surprised.
03:15 I didn't prepare anything for this song.
03:17 I didn't do a proper cover.
03:18 Usually, people who do a proper music video will be viral.
03:22 I was playing around.
03:23 I was walking around.
03:26 But maybe, the Malaysians like the surroundings.
03:29 It's a blessing in a way.
03:32 Because I allow content creators.
03:34 Sometimes, they spend a lot of time to make a content.
03:37 For example, they make a video.
03:38 They spend 10 hours to edit the video.
03:42 But there's a video where you're walking,
03:43 you're angry or something.
03:45 That's the viral part of the video that you didn't put any effort.
03:47 In a way, you want to do it.
03:48 But that's the beauty of social media.
03:50 I think it's not just because of that.
03:52 Because when you sing that song,
03:54 you're so emotional.
03:57 The lyrics in the song.
03:58 I think the emotions that came out from that song,
04:00 when you sang it,
04:01 that's what made it viral.
04:03 So, we want to ask.
04:04 Is it true?
04:05 When you sang that song,
04:07 you were facing,
04:08 maybe, you were breaking up with someone.
04:10 No, no.
04:11 Because you chose that song.
04:13 Actually, the song is based on a story.
04:18 "Tenggelamnya Kapal"
04:19 Vanderviech.
04:20 Yes.
04:21 The story is about a person who was once up there.
04:26 Then, he fell down.
04:28 He met a woman.
04:30 They had a relationship.
04:32 And the woman went to another person.
04:33 So, every time I want to sing,
04:35 I will know the song first.
04:37 Because of what?
04:38 Okay.
04:39 Especially this song.
04:40 This song is deep and meaningful to me.
04:44 Before I sing,
04:45 I want to put my feelings.
04:46 Because the song is like,
04:47 it's like energy.
04:49 Heavy.
04:50 You must have the feeling if you sing that song.
04:53 So, I just sing.
04:54 Put all the feelings.
04:55 Like I'm the one who got hit.
04:57 Have you ever been hit like that?
04:58 In real life?
04:59 I've been hit before.
05:00 You're 23, right?
05:01 Yes.
05:02 Maybe I was in school at that time.
05:04 It was a long time ago.
05:06 But I think,
05:08 mostly, the singer will...
05:10 To get the feeling,
05:11 we have to be the main character in the song.
05:13 How long have you been busking to begin with?
05:27 I started busking when I was 18.
05:30 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23.
05:33 Six years now.
05:34 How did you get into busking?
05:37 Is it something you always wanted to do?
05:39 Yes.
05:40 Actually, I finished school.
05:42 And then, I worked as an air conditioner.
05:45 Okay.
05:46 I was an air conditioner.
05:47 And then, one day,
05:48 I went out to eat.
05:50 At that time,
05:51 in my hometown.
05:52 There were many restaurants.
05:54 And then, there was busking at the spot.
05:56 So, I really like to sing.
05:58 But I wasn't serious about singing.
06:00 Okay.
06:01 So, I went there and said,
06:02 "Can I sing a song?"
06:04 "Sure, go ahead."
06:05 I sang.
06:06 And it was okay.
06:07 Then, he suddenly asked me,
06:08 "Let's do busking.
06:10 You join me."
06:11 But there was no singer at that time.
06:12 So, I thought,
06:13 "I can do this.
06:14 I can make my income."
06:15 Okay.
06:16 I joined him.
06:17 I learned what I didn't know.
06:19 Blah, blah, blah.
06:20 Until now.
06:21 I'm okay now.
06:23 But how was the process at that time?
06:25 When he accepted you?
06:27 He asked you to join him?
06:29 Yes.
06:30 He said, "Kai, I want you to join me."
06:32 How did you feel at that time?
06:33 The first thing,
06:34 I did busking the next day.
06:36 At that time, I did busking at
06:38 Perak.
06:39 Gerbang Malam.
06:40 It's quite a famous place.
06:41 You met him here?
06:42 I met him at Ipoh.
06:43 I'm from Ipoh.
06:44 Oh, you're from Ipoh.
06:45 Okay.
06:46 Then,
06:47 the next day,
06:48 it was the first time I wanted to sing in front of a crowd.
06:50 It was a crowd.
06:51 I was like,
06:52 "Okay."
06:53 "Can I start now?"
06:54 I sang,
06:55 I looked back.
06:56 I was nervous.
06:57 I thought, "Wait a minute."
06:58 I sang and looked over there.
07:00 Until I felt like,
07:01 You got confidence?
07:02 I felt like,
07:03 "Oh, I don't like singing."
07:04 I looked back.
07:06 It was the first time.
07:07 I was nervous.
07:08 What is your opinion about
07:17 the busking industry?
07:19 I don't know anything about the busking industry.
07:22 If we want to perform on the side of the road,
07:24 do we have to get a permit?
07:25 Do we have to get a permit?
07:26 I don't know.
07:27 Busking...
07:29 I'm new to the busking circle.
07:33 Maybe some of you have been around for a long time.
07:35 You know about it.
07:36 But,
07:37 for me,
07:38 what I went through when I was busking,
07:40 I just came to KL.
07:41 When I started busking in KL,
07:43 I had to get a permit from DBKL.
07:45 So that we could be at the right place.
07:47 Is that an individual permit?
07:49 Yes, individual.
07:50 So, to get the permit,
07:51 we had to go to an audition.
07:54 The auditioners wanted to see what we could do.
07:57 If we could do it.
07:59 So, if we play the guitar,
08:00 we had to show it.
08:01 There was a jury.
08:02 We played and they approved it.
08:03 Okay, we got the permit.
08:05 So, the audition was in DBKL?
08:08 Yes, in DBKL.
08:09 DBKL would arrange it once a year
08:11 for anyone who wants to have a talent in art.
08:14 For example, if you want to do busking,
08:16 or if you want to paint,
08:18 you have to show it to the jury.
08:20 Because we have too many...
08:22 There are too many new things in Malaysia.
08:25 Sometimes, people break the rules.
08:28 So, DBKL set the time limit for us to do busking.
08:31 So, can you get...
08:34 How do I say this?
08:35 Is your salary okay?
08:37 If you can do it full-time,
08:40 it's okay if you want to do busking.
08:42 The salary is...
08:44 It's like a hassle.
08:46 We have to look at our motives.
08:49 What is busking for?
08:51 For me, if you really want to find
08:53 an opinion on busking,
08:55 it's hard because busking depends on the weather.
08:58 It's hard. We have to face the society.
09:00 Sometimes, there are people who don't like busking.
09:04 They don't like busking,
09:05 but they can do it anytime.
09:06 They can say, "This is a thing."
09:07 It's like they're halaling us.
09:09 So, if you want to do busking,
09:12 it's hard to find an opinion.
09:14 But if it's for part-time, passion, it's okay.
09:17 So, where do you see yourself,
09:19 I guess, in five years?
09:21 In five years.
09:22 As Kai, where do you think you'll be?
09:24 I don't know.
09:25 Maybe today, it's going viral.
09:27 Rezeki is going around.
09:29 Maybe tomorrow, we don't know.
09:31 Maybe I'll fall or something.
09:32 So, I don't know.
09:33 I think if there's Rezeki, there will be.
09:35 Maybe I can be a singer.
09:36 If not, I have a backup plan.
09:39 So, your goal is to become a singer?
09:41 Actually, it's my goal.
09:42 Because my mom...
09:44 My mom supports me a lot.
09:47 She supports me a lot.
09:48 Like, "Okay, what are you doing today?"
09:50 "Do you want to sing today?"
09:51 She always calls me.
09:52 Because my mom is far away.
09:53 My mom is in Ipoh.
09:54 I'm here.
09:55 So, she always contacts me,
09:56 asking about my development with busking.
09:58 So, I'm like, "Okay, it's okay.
10:00 Today, it's my mom.
10:01 We have to hustle."
10:02 That's so sweet, man.
10:03 I also hope my mom will call me every day.
10:06 Telling me, "Sean, you're eating too much."
10:09 But that's so sweet, man.
10:11 Like, your mom really supports you in this field.
10:14 [Music]
10:25 In all your six years of career,
10:27 as a busker,
10:28 have you ever returned empty-handed?
10:30 Yes, I have.
10:31 How did you feel at that time?
10:33 How was that?
10:34 At that time...
10:36 But you were down, right?
10:39 You felt down, right?
10:40 I was down, too.
10:41 Because you've been busking for one or two hours.
10:43 One or two hours.
10:44 And then, nothing.
10:45 At that time, I was in my second year.
10:48 I was in my third year.
10:49 So, for example,
10:50 if we got 30 people at that time,
10:52 we divided it into three.
10:53 So, it was around RM10.
10:54 Okay.
10:55 So, at that time, I was busking for almost three hours.
10:59 Eight to eleven or twelve.
11:02 And then, we were done.
11:03 At that time, there weren't many people.
11:05 It was raining.
11:06 When we looked at the billboard,
11:07 there was RM5.
11:08 RM5.
11:09 Okay, so...
11:10 We were like, "What is this?"
11:12 I looked at him and he looked at me.
11:13 We were like, "It's okay. It's okay. We don't have any money."
11:16 We were a bit down.
11:17 But if we wanted to give up, we weren't.
11:19 Maybe because we couldn't hope for anything.
11:22 We had what we had.
11:23 Okay, we already know.
11:24 You've received the lowest amount, RM5.
11:28 From one busking session.
11:29 The lowest amount in a day.
11:31 How much did you get in a day?
11:34 Oh, that's hard.
11:36 It's hard to say.
11:37 The most...
11:38 Estimates?
11:39 Estimates.
11:40 Maybe, maybe it can reach 800.
11:44 For one night performance?
11:46 Yes.
11:47 Sometimes, we have the whole day.
11:49 Sometimes, I do busking the whole day.
11:50 Okay.
11:51 Like, I go out around lunch hour.
11:54 I perform for a while and then I rest.
11:56 I perform again for the evening session.
11:58 And then, I continue until 12 o'clock.
12:00 Then, it's over.
12:01 Then, I start again.
12:02 Usually, I do it like that to survive in KL.
12:05 Because when I came to KL, I didn't have a house.
12:08 When I came to KL, I was with my friends.
12:11 When I came here, we didn't have a backup plan.
12:13 We just went ahead.
12:14 We stayed in a hotel first.
12:16 You're brave.
12:17 So, we stayed in a hotel for 3 months.
12:20 We stayed in a hotel for 3 months.
12:21 We did busking.
12:22 We survived because we didn't know anyone in KL.
12:24 So, how do we find a busking place?
12:27 So, we got in contact with people in KL.
12:30 Okay, we started.
12:32 Build up, you know.
12:33 Damn.
12:34 Must be tough, man.
12:35 Because the risk is high.
12:37 You want to leave your family.
12:39 The first thing.
12:40 You come to a place that you don't know anyone.
12:43 This is not your area.
12:45 You have no idea how things are going here.
12:48 But, man, you're here now.
12:51 I want to congratulate you.
12:52 Thank you so much.
12:53 Pop music selection must be important.
13:01 Right.
13:02 For you to do busking.
13:04 Is there any hot spots?
13:07 Do you think this place is hot for busking?
13:11 Have you ever been to a place like this?
13:13 I think this place will be hot.
13:14 If I perform here, people will come.
13:16 But, you perform there, no one will come.
13:19 There are many.
13:21 There are.
13:22 Maybe you can share some.
13:23 As a busker, I have to go to that place.
13:26 For example, I have to know if people are there.
13:28 It's the first time I have to know.
13:29 I have to investigate first.
13:32 Are people here?
13:33 I went to a mall.
13:36 I tried to perform at a mall.
13:38 It's not hot.
13:39 It's more comfortable.
13:40 The music is calm.
13:43 I tried.
13:44 I performed at Melawati Mall.
13:46 There are many people at Melawati Mall.
13:49 I did busking at Level 2.
13:51 I booked a slot for 2 hours.
13:55 I performed for only RM3.
13:57 The hottest place is Bukit Bintang.
14:00 Bukit Bintang is not only a hot place.
14:02 Many buskers want to go there.
14:05 There are many competitors.
14:08 There are many tourists.
14:10 People from other countries.
14:12 It's a tough place.
14:14 As a busker in the community,
14:16 it's hard to book a slot for Bukit Bintang.
14:19 Yes, it's hard.
14:22 It's hot.
14:23 Many people want to go there.
14:26 It's a main place.
14:27 Many people are there.
14:29 Many people are interested in the community.
14:32 How many people attended the busking?
14:41 Busking?
14:42 You did busking at Bukit Bintang, right?
14:44 I did busking.
14:45 There are many people at Bukit Bintang.
14:47 I did busking once.
14:49 I played with 3 people.
14:52 One played bass, the other played drums.
14:54 3 people.
14:55 One day, I played alone.
14:57 I played guitar.
14:59 The crowd was close to me.
15:01 The MRT was full.
15:03 There was a small space in the middle.
15:05 It was crowded.
15:06 I didn't expect it to be so crowded.
15:08 It was just once.
15:10 It was too crowded.
15:12 The traffic police came.
15:14 They called the cars to stop.
15:16 What songs did you sing?
15:18 What songs were you doing at that time?
15:20 Commercial songs.
15:22 But, you were alone.
15:24 Everyone was busy.
15:26 Did you get in a rush when you were busking?
15:28 Yes.
15:29 Can you tell us about it?
15:31 I did.
15:32 I just came to KL.
15:34 I stayed at a hotel.
15:36 The hotel called us.
15:39 We were staying there.
15:40 The hotel wanted to find a performer.
15:43 A performer for a dinner.
15:45 I went to the hotel.
15:47 I went to perform.
15:49 I arrived at BKL.
15:51 I received a report from the people around me.
15:54 They said that the place was noisy.
