Yuna Speaks On Her LP, "Rouge"

Born in Kedah, Malaysia and raised primarily in Kuala Lumpur, Yuna now splits her time between Malaysia and Los Angeles, where she recorded her new album, "Rouge." Yuna began writing songs and teaching herself to play guitar at age 14. She recorded her debut album in 2008, earning her five Malaysian Music Award nominations. Her U.S. debut EP, "Decorate," featured production by Grammy-award winning producer Pharrell Williams. The new LP features "Castaway," a single featuring Tyler, the Creator. Yuna took the BUILD stage to chat about the record and perform a few songs.

I love Yuna, she’s really talented and authentic.

[@bobnomura2068]

So refreshing when the interviewer knows something of the guest (research and homework done) and asks questions of Yuna that we, her fans, want to know !! She obviously works hard on her music !

[@kweenjade01]

Yeah I agree completely. I know it doesnt relate much but I watched a Nicki minaj interview awhile ago and the interviewers didnt know what they were talking about. It wasnt good and you could tell. This inter iew is nice and smooth and flowing and the right questions were asked because of this. It's just respect in my opinion. If you're inviting someone as a guest you should have a bit of background on them.

[@ikkial]

I like how the interview wasn't rushed. They don't cut her off while talking or anything,she wasn't pressured at all.

Her English is superb

[@syafiqsahap2012]

but so many 'like' as she's not so confident and less vocab to express herself.She looks nervous too.Maybe she needs to learn how to speak like a native and enhance her vocabulary so that her speaking we won't find it so limited.

To all yuna's international fans, I hope you'll listen to yuna's old songs wayy before she made her debut in the US. Most of the songs are in malay language. You might not understand it, but i can assure you that her musics & lyrics are so beautiful. Here are some suggestions for those who are interested: 1. Terukir dibintang (my personal favourite) 2. Pulang 3. Langit 4. Dan sebenarnya 5. Lelaki 6. Cinta sempurna 7. Lautan

[@syedjay2695]

elle .z i wish yuna would record Lelaki in english for future album. it’s gonna be a major hit

[@pandakanalbert2818]

Bukan...Aishah lebih awal...buat research

[@pandakanalbert2818]

There are quite a few Malaysian artist who went international before Yuna..Raihan, Dato Siti, Dato Shidee,Sheila Majid,Search, Too Phat etc...takkan nanyi kat US ja terus awak ckp international, kat Indonesia/Singapore or any country outside Malaysia tu pun dah kira international la tu...😂😂😂

[@irwanlaaah]

@@pandakanalbert2818 Oh sudah pasti itu salah. International itu ketika seorang penyanyi berkolaborasi dengan penyanyi2 US, dan memasarkan album mereka ke seluruh dunia dan buat konsert ke berbagai negara serta benar2 diakui sebagai penyanyi antara bangsa.
