Anugerah is back to uncover a new generation of local music talent!
Anugerah, Mediacorp’s flagship Malay talent discovery competition is back! After a five-year hiatus, the programme is set to return in an exciting search for the next generation of homegrown music talent, with online submissions open from 11 to 29 May, followed by auditions to be held on 6, 7 and 13 June. Singers looking for your big break — this is your chance!
Hosted by Mediacorp RIA 897 personality Fadli Kamsani and actress Lydia Asyiqin, Anugerah is set to feature the richness and diversity of talent in the community and invites aspiring soloists to showcase their singing prowess and personal charisma in a thrilling competition across ten weeks. Into its 12th edition, this iconic initiative underscores Mediacorp’s commitment to uncover and nurture budding stars in the local showbiz industry.
In proving they have what it takes, hopefuls aged 16 to 30 years old can submit their applications online from 11 to 29 May. Applicants from the online submissions will be invited to audition on 6 and 7 June, while walk-in auditions will take place on 13 June at the Malay Heritage Centre, during which they will be assessed on their vocal technique, interpretation of songs and stage charisma.
