A humble request

Assalamualaikum,
Tq for checking out the link and what im about to write. This note is specially written to all the fans that has been supporting Luscious, supporting Nadia Aqilah Bajuri, supporting all the songs that i did for them from Khabarkan to the sad version, to Angan, to Jaguh Perkasa, Diriku Untukmu and till now..

What you guys dont know that by supporting and showing your love to them means that you have also indirectly supporting what i ve always believed in. Let me introduce myself, my name is Andi and for those who dont know, i was part of the group 'Infinatez' which was really close to Luscious during Gangstarz. I personally became really close to them and at one level i have loved them more than i love my own group. Adding up to that, i ve produced and worked closely wit them in and out of the studio over the years and see them grow tremendously.

I remember back then before it all started, no one actually believed in me especially when it comes to composition. But Luscious were there to gave me a chance to help produce them. 'Khabarkan' was very personal to me because it was in my song library for 4 years before i can really select who can actually sing this song the way i imagined it. And the song was my first song that was airplayed on the national radio and TV, even before Infinatez came out. Lets face it, the radio doesnt really believe that the song is a marketable song but when it came out in the series everybody started asking. And i always get this 'proud' feeling everytime they sing my song on stage, far better than being on stage itself. I thank you everytime you guys listen to it and say that its a beautiful song. I appreciate it and i believe its far better than getting a massive airplay without people appreciating my work. There's always a place for good and honest music. And i thank Luscious for giving justice to the song....

Working with Luscious has also been part of my learning process. Everytime i work with them, i found new things for me to adapt and im blessed to be given that chance. If you guys are not familiar with their sound, you guys should checkout more of their songs. 'Angan' is a dope RnB track that was written by Eenaz and Nadia. 'Bintang' is written by Nadia and eventhough its a short interlude, but the concept and idea was brilliant that i too have my own version of Bintang in my next coming album. And the latest track is 'Jaguh Perkasa' that has Mawar Berduri from Ahli Fiqir in it. 'Jaguh Perkasa' shows a different side and angle of Luscious that the mainstream market has yet to notice. And i really hope you guys will continue supporting our music and if you have the chance, please come to their show and checkout their performances. Im sure you guys will be amazed :)

While checking their FB, i realised that i have come such a long way to actually be where i am today. While writing this, im actually celebrating my 27th birthday and after producing a number of songs for Luscious (not to mention other artistes like Infinatez) Im proud to say that im ready to take this journey alone by myself as a solo artistes. I believed that every story should have their ending, or start a new chapter all over again, and this is my starting over. Some of you might not know that i have quit INF, so here i am clearing every speculations but alhamdulillah we remain good friends and i wish them all the best. And right now my mind is focus on completing my own album production which will be released after raya with god's will.

All im asking is for you to support me the way you have supported Luscious and my songs. I will continue making good music but i also need the love from ya'll that has been there for Luscious and Infinatez. I totally understand the obstacle that ill be facing, because people dont know me. All they know is im Infinatez and thats it!!! So thats the reason im writing this so that i can get personal to all of you guys. So that you guys understand that im not that kinda artiste you see in E channel. Im just another guy who loves doing music, and love inspiring people, and when people inspire me, i relate it and put in a song.

Ill keep you guys updated on the progress of my career but im starting all over again and all by myself. The album is mainly produced by me with the help from some friends. The promotion is handled by me. Even all the online medium is done by me (which im not good at) so it might take some time but ill keep on progressing, one at a time. For the time being you can checkout my Facebook music account and type 'Andi A. Merican' or you can just click to this link http://www.facebook.com/home.php?#!/pages/Andi-AMerican/120958274594267?ref=ts

Till then, thank again for reading this long note. I feel like im writing to a long lost girlfriend plak. All i wanted was to be honest and hope that one day, you ll find progress in me and my music..
