To say Hael Husaini is busy is an understatement. He will be attending his first Milan Fashion Week this month, and at the same time, putting the final touches to his new album scheduled to be released October while preparing for his first-ever solo concert in December. Success, however, did not come overnight for Hael: “I started singing in 2007. I joined many talent shows in Malaysia and lost. I tried twice to form a duo group because I love vocal harmonising. Unfortunately, both of them didn’t work out because we just couldn’t break into the market at that time,” he says. Eventually, Hael went solo in 2017 after numerous attempts and rejections.
He confesses that his proudest moments were back in 2017 and 2019 when he won Best Song for Jampi and Haram at Anugerah Juara Lagu 32 (AJL32) and AJL33 respectively. “When Jampi became the bestselling single in 2018 and won many awards in the same year, I realised that there will be miracle as long as you don’t stop dreaming – and felt that I have since established myself as a serious musician and a force to be reckoned with.” Hael has this one advice on finding success in life: “Never give up on your dreams. Keep chasing them because you want to be prepared when things start going your way,” he says. And he pays negativity no mind. “Everyone is entitled to his own opinion, whether you agree with it or not. It’s not my job to try to change someone else’s perspective about me and what I do. I choose to focus on people who push me forward toward my goals and those who believe in me, and let my success make the noise,” he continues.
