KRU first Malaysian act to use AI for music video
The Straits Times|December 03, 2024
Malaysian music group KRU have unveiled Voodoo, the first single and music video from their upcoming album Kaset.

More significantly, KRU have made history as the first Malaysian act to use artificial intelligence (AI) technology to create their digital twins for a music video.

"Voodoo holds a special place in our hearts, not only as our first new release after a six-year hiatus, but also as a milestone for the local music industry. By incorporating AI technology into our music video production, we are taking a bold step forward," the group said.

"We hope this song resonates with today's music fans and serves as an invitation for them to reconnect with us at the Kaset concert next year."
