Asked about reactions from netizens on social media, the wife of singer Syamel admitted the song might take time to gain acceptance as its approach differs from the pop songs she is usually associated with. “I believe some songs may take people a little longer to warm up to, but sometimes it’s these differences that stay in people’s hearts. It just takes time, right? “For me, it’s not fair for people to judge without watching the movie.

The song, composed by Rendra Zawawi and Njwa, sees the 34-year old singer stepping out of her comfort zone by infusing horror elements into her vocals, something she has rarely explored throughout her more-than-a-decade-long career in the entertainment industry.
