A budding singer from the stream flow of never-ending singing talents from Sabah, Jaidi Suli, is currently undergoing gruelling sessions of vocal recording with Greenland Entertainment. “It’s no bed of roses,” he quips,”but this is what I want to achieve at this point of my life. Recording sessions are tough, like a bootcamp and at times I do cry inside. I truly realize now that to deliver a song exceptionally well is no easy matter. It requires great efforts and perseverance. But my deep interest and love for singing sustain me.” Jaidi has his medium deep and appealingly slightly nasal voice to thank to that keeps his studio mentors’ faith in him.

A vocal jewel encrusted with sweetness, soul and depth as possessed by Masnie is truly a hard find. There exists a feel of an age and era long bygone to it, almost ancient-like which sweeps towards nostalgic emotions or “kalalangad” as expressed by the Dusuns. Our songstress still keeps herself active, though not all year round but occasionally in the local singing arena. But seen or not, she has carved out a space inside the heads of many in Sabah as the original songbird for such ethereal hits as Rumandawi (the biggest ever this has became legendary), Tinggur Bulawan, Kulasa, Poguungan and many more. Recently in May 23^rd 2009, she made a rare and special appearance in Ranau Community Centre during a statewide-scale Kaamatan function.

A virtually unknown singer in the State, Jusie Sikin is over the moon nowadays as her song, Iningaan, has been nominated in the Murut Song Chart on 2 November 2008, exactly one week back from the time this article is written. The song chart program airs over the radio every Sunday at 8 p.m. What astounds her is that just after one week, her song shot to spot no.3! Jusie wishes to express her heart-filled gratitude to all the people who have voted her via sms.

“I couldn’t have gotten to that high spot so quickly if people had not kindly voted for me. For that, I’m indefinitely grateful,” Jusie said in an inter-South China Sea and Kota Kinabalu telephone interview as presently, Jusie resides in Kuala Lumpur. “I hope my voters will stay with me week after week. Who knows I will eventually hit the no.1 spot.”

Jusie, 19, composed the Iningaan song herself. The song can be found in the newly released cassette album “Rimbai Nu Murut - Tampusis-On” produced by Greenland Entertainment. The album features a group of artistes comprising of her siblings and a cousin (please refer to the category “Album Release“ of this site for detail write-up). She has been actively composing songs for several years now and her past creation has once clinched the champion trophy which was sung by a fellow Murut singer.

Jusie is happy and satisfied with the compilation album and hopes to be able to come up with another compilation album in year 2009. When asked if she would like to go solo, she says: “Yes, I’m interested. In fact, I’m now in the process of writing more songs. But maybe not too soon because I still want to combine effort with my siblings and cousin. However, as soon as I’m ready, I’ll give the solo album a go.”

To vote her song through sms, type CRK JUS (then send to 32776). The Song Chart program is called Carta Rimbai-Rimbai Kasihaan, starts at 8.pm. every Sunday and the channel is Siaran Murut Sabah Vfm.

The ethnic group of the Sungei people, literally translated as people of the river, are concentrated in certain districts in the Sandakan area such as Paitan, Beluran and Sugud. Their numbers are not as great as the Kadazan Dusuns that are dispersed throughout the state particularly around the west-coast region; hence, being smaller in numbers means higher risk in their ethnic tongue being slowly eroded by the ravage of time.

Butod never considers himself a singer but it was the thing called love that leads his feet to the studio of Greenland Entertainment to record two singles, namely, Imelda and Tupus Auh Milo Sansagan (Love Cannot Be Forced). These two songs were personally penned by Butod himself and they were pure inspiration coming from the heart of Julius Ebin, the real person behind Butod.

Butod has always been a great fan of local songs and know most of the hits that came out over the years. In contrast, Butod’s line of work has nothing to do with entertainment. He has always been the man behind the scene in the field of computer programming. Singing is his number two passion, he claims. Keeping up with the latest computer technology and know-how is his main interest and bread and butter.
