Music's Magician
MEN'S FOLIO Malaysia|June/July 2017

That is exactly what Yoga Lin has been dubbed by his industry contemporaries. Since graduating from television competition One Million Star ten years ago, Lin has been smashing records and ambitiously melding music styles in a way that only he can.

Music's Magician

One decade ago, a pop star was born. "One (in a) Million Star(s)", that is. Before the slew of today’s mando-pop reality singing shows, Yoga Lin won the Taiwanese TV competition with his diverse, theatrical performances – and a string of what the show called “perfect scores”. By 2009, he had unleashed his debut album Mystery Guest and shattered concert records in Taiwan.

Fast forward to 2017, and he has released five solo albums to date, including 2016’s Sell Like Hot Cakes. Living up to his name as the “magician of music”, Lin has never shied away from experimenting vocal styles and mixing music genres – prior to hitting 30, he’s already got soft rock, jazz and swing, rock and roll, and R&B covered. Earlier this year, he hit the headlines in a different way when he tied the knot with actress Kiki Ting, before returning to Singapore for the first time in four years with a sold out gig at Esplanade.

What will the rest of the year have in store for you?
