Firdhaus (Malay: Firdhaus, Chinese: 菲道尔; pinyin: Fēidàoěr; born 21 November 1998) is a Malaysian singer-songwriter.[1] He debuted in the Mandopop industry under Loolala Music in 2020.
Biography
Early life
Firdhaus was born on 21 November 1998 in Kulai, Johor, Malaysia.[2] He became fluent in Mandarin Chinese as a consequence of attending a Chinese independent school from kindergarten to the secondary level.[3] Firdhaus noted that having numerous Chinese acquaintances also aided in his language acquisition, yet he can still communicate in his native tongue. He said he would always be Malay and that he spoke his native tongue fluently, as well as singing in Malay. His environment and social media followers are primarily Chinese, therefore, he concentrates on singing in Mandarin so they can comprehend what he is trying to say.[4]
Career
Firdhaus gained an interest in music after listening to Eric Chou, a Mandopop singer.[3] He is signed with Loolala Music.[3] His ballad, "Gulf of Alaska", went viral in 2020, receiving over 0.7 million views on Douyin.[5] Berita Harian states that he is the first Malay singer to accomplish such a feat.[6] When the movement control order (MCO) was put in place in March 2020 as a result of the COVID-19 epidemic, he became increasingly active on social media. He shares covers of various Mandarin, English, and even Korean songs on his Instagram page, in addition to his own original music.[4]
