teraju tigo

i think the malaysian students in the uk have taken dikir barat to a whole new level.

i was bored and trying to believe that i had nothing better to do. so i was watching dikir barat performances from various malaysian nights all over the uk. and i somehow really enjoyed almost every one of the videos i watched. sure, what i was watching has gone astray from what the true dikir barat is ie it being kelantanese and about life and morality, but all of it just sounded really 'cool'. a dikir version of pop yeye? hindi dikir? rapping ewa bule? dikir hakka?.. i think it just projects how everyone is living. name me one person in malaysia who is living a pure traditional malay life. whatever that might mean, im not really making a valid point here am i?

well the leader of the dikir is after all called the tukang karut right? kena la mengarut!

id like to see a dikir team do the macarena. nice , no?
