5 local YouTube music videos to watch this weekend
Yes, almost all of us have heard Taufik Batisah's annoyingly catchy #AwakKatMane single.
Fret not if you've actually grown to love it.
Even the people in Malaysia have caught onto the viral hit as topped the charts snatching the title for No. 1 trending single on YouTube.
And even as that gains traction, a former jock and YouTube star (the one with the annoying eye brows) has released a cover which has garnered an impressive number of views.
Yes, we're talking about Dee Kosh.
Speaking of which, there have been quite a number of locally-produced singles that have grabbed our attention recently.
Check some pretty cool videos (by our very own people) that we've grown to like:
1. #AwakKatMane - Taufik Batisah
There is really nothing much to say about this except that it's annoying.
But that's what makes it so addictive, doesn't it?
2. Bang Bang - Dee Kosh, Gareth Fernaedez and Shigga Shay
Here's former jock Dee Kosh teaming up with local singer Gareth Fernandez and rapper Shigga Shay for a cover of joint single Bang Bang originally sung by Jessie J, Ariana Grande and Nicki Minaj.
Prepare for Shigga's exclusive rap for the cover.
Pretty good!
3. Minahconda - Munah and Hirzi
We knew there were no boundaries when it came to this comical duo.
Munah and Hirzi has done it again as they rub up against workers on the street for their latest tweaked cover Minahconda (their local version of Anaconda).
4. All About That Bass - The Sam Willows
The Cup Song was incorporated in their cover of Meghan Trainor's All About That Bass. That was super creative.
5. Got Milk? - Joshua Simon
Right up to the day before the final release, radio DJ Joshua Simon was getting all the celebs he could get for what he claims is the video with the "most local famed names."
