MIN YASMIN is a powerful and soulful Malaysian RnB singer. She is also better known as a Soundtrack Singer,
appearing in numerous Malaysian OSTs, teleseries & movies. Min launched her first successful international concert in
Zamboanga City on March 2017 and in Tawi-Tawi on August 2017, all in the Philippines. She is among Malaysia’s
established international singers under the record label JULFEKAR Music, fully owned and managed by songwriter and
producer, Julfekar.
Julfekar is a well-known, award-winning composer and producer in Malaysia. He is the Managing Director of
MillenniumArt and Julfekar Music. He traces his roots to the Philippines by having a Tausug maternal lineage, which
gave his songs a warm and heartfelt Filipino flavor. Through his works, Julfekar spreads his wings across the Philippine
music realm, thereby reconnecting his Tausug roots which made him fell in love with words and music in the first
place.
Julfekar made history by producing '2 VOICES', which is the first-ever full-album collaboration between a Malaysian
singer (Min Yasmin) and a Filipino singer (Nikki Bacolod). It was launched in Philippines last October 2015 and was a
groundbreaking success. The resulting hit single, 'SA IYO' reached the Top 10 charts and stayed for three months in
LOVE Radio, YES FM and several other Philippine radio stations.
A follow-up album for Min Yasmin will be released. The international ‘PANGARAP' debut solo album will contain 14
songs, mainly written in Tagalog. The other songs will be rendered in Filipino minor languages Tausug & Sama Bajau,
in addition to a couple of English and Malay songs. To seal its success, producer Julfekar collaborated with Philippines’
top hitmaker and producer, Vehnee Saturno, producing a powerful version and arrangement of the hits ‘Bakit Pa’ and
‘Kahit Konting Awa,’ Julfekar also collaborated with Filipino lyricist Roosevelt ‘Raz’ Itum for the Tagalog songs, Nelson
Dino for the Tausug songs and Andhee Basion for the Sama song. The album has already been fully-recorded and will
be released in both Malaysia and the Philippines. It is expected to become a major hit. We really hope Philippines will
support us and our music.
MIN YASMIN has been awarded as an 'Outstanding Asian Singer 2015' by Gawad Sulo Ng Bayan Awards and was also
chosen as a 'Music Ambassador 2015'. This award was given in Manila on November 2015.
