Timur Releases Debut Single & Video “NOT A CRIMINAL”

Timur’s electro-pop sound is influenced by K-pop acts such as Blackpink and 2NE1 while also reminiscent of soulful girl pop icons like Rihanna and Beyoncé. Timur’s debut single “NOT A CRIMINAL” evokes all the confidence and vibrancy of Fifth Harmony’s “Bo$$”. The lyrics detailing the inner battle within you, are contrasted by her fierce, assertive tone. Charismatic vocals paired with a bold backdrop create an ideal tune of empowerment and strength.

Produced and mixed by Gustav Efraimsson (Monsta X/NKOTBSB) in Sweden, “Not A Criminal” assembles top-notch pop and dance collaborators – Hayden Bell (EXO/Super Junior), Ronny Svendsen (Girl’s Generation/ITZY), Anne Judith (NCT 127/Kylie Minogue) and Gustav himself.

Apart from recording the single in 3 languages (English, Malay, and Mandarin), the multitalented and multilingual songstress also marks a historic moment for the music industry by performing in a 4-part music video series directed by an action film director, Datuk Yusry Abdul Halim.
