In the spirit of Nusantara, Marsha Milan, the music queen of Borneo, celebrates her new album with a free listening party with fans
Malaysian music Queen of Borneo, Marsha Milan, wants to celebrate and invite all her fans for a free jamming session in Kuala Lumpur/ It will be an intimate celebration filled with the beauty of sound, culture, and art, Marsha will be performing with a special event, "Misompuru: Borneo Album Listening Session" on 13 July 2025 (Sunday), from 4 to 6 pm at RXP, REX KL. The singer who in February won the Anugerah Juara Lagu 2025 title for the song "Hening Rindu" has now notched up another success in her long glittering career with the launch of her new album "Misompuru". 'Misompuru' is a term derived from the Dusun language, meaning 'gathering' in English, or 'crowd' in Malay. Through this session, Marsha aims to translate that spirit by bringing together fans and media representatives to fully appreciate and enjoy the uniqueness of Borneo music. As a work born from a deep love for her homeland, "Misompuru" emerges as Marsha Milan's love letter to Borneo. It brings together elements of nostalgia, strength of spirit, and longing for her hometown, which makes this work close to the hearts of listeners, especially Borneo residents who always want to return to enjoy it. With a rhythm and musical style that reflects the unique taste of Sabah and Sarawak, which is different from the music of the Peninsular, "Misompuru" brings a fresh voice to a genre that is rarely featured in the mainstream music industry. Even more proud, "Misompuru" also paved the way for Marsha Milan to break into the international stage. After winning the AJL39 trophy, she was recently invited to the ROUND ASEAN-Korea Music Festival 2025, to bring songs from this album as representatives of Borneo's identity. This proves that Misompuru is not just an album, but a manifestation of heritage art that is now recognized globally, befitting the Queen of Borneo, Malaysia. "Misompuru: Borneo Album Listening Session" is not just about music; it is an immersive and interactive cultural experience, bringing together elements of Borneo music, art, and tradition in one space. Admission is free, but seating is limited, so make sure to register early for a live performance of all five songs from the Misompuru album, Cultural demonstrations and dances such as Magunatip, Sumpit and Sumazau, Traditional Borneo food and drink offerings and a stall offering exclusive Marsha Milan merchandise Marsha also encourages all fans coming to the show to come dressed in Borneo fashion, and she will herself present the best-dressed fans with special gifts.

From Sabah to New York: Marsha Milan lights up Times Square billboard as Spotify EQUAL ambassador
KUALA LUMPUR, April 21 — Marsha Milan is entering a new chapter in her career — one that extends far beyond Malaysia's borders. Fresh off her win at AJL 39, the celebrated singer has achieved another major milestone: appearing on a digital billboard in New York's Times Square last Friday. The appearance marks her debut as Spotify's EQUAL Asia ambassador for April 2025, a role that places her among a global roster of female artists recognised for their talent, voice, and impact in music. Her songs 'Hening Rindu' and 'Tangisan Seorang Pendosa' are now featured on the EQUAL Singapore & Malaysia playlist, where she takes centre stage. The EQUAL initiative is part of Spotify's commitment to champion gender equity in the music industry by spotlighting outstanding female artists from around the world. Overwhelmed by the honour, Marsha described the experience as surreal. 'Over the moon! It's my first time, and I'm so grateful,' she said in a statement today. 'I used to think opportunities like this were just dreams, but Alhamdulillah, it's become a reality. I've always hoped to be on a billboard — and now, a girl from a small town in Sabah is up in Times Square.' Despite the international recognition, Marsha remains grounded. 'I don't have a specific formula to be selected again, but I believe good music will always be appreciated,' she said. 'I hope this achievement inspires more local composers to continue creating high-quality songs.' With nearly 20 years in the industry, Marsha credits her longevity to sincerity, discipline, and a constant desire to improve. 'The industry is always evolving, and we have to evolve too — without losing our identity. 'Maintaining a strong connection with your team and your supporters is so important. 'There will always be highs and lows, but if your intentions are sincere, opportunities will come,' she said. Adding to the list of achievements, Marsha has also been chosen by KBS World Korea to perform at the upcoming ROUND Festival (Asean-Korea Music Festival). The event, supported by the Asean-Korea Cooperation Fund, will take place at Zepp KL on June 21 and 22. Sharing the stage with top acts from across the region, Marsha will represent Malaysia in this cross-cultural celebration of Asean music and talent.
