KUALA LUMPUR, March 22 — Malaysian singer-songwriter Mimi Fly is having a Ramadan to remember.

She recently released a solo Raya track, Serumpun, along with a music video — only to take it down four days later after social media users criticised her outfit as inappropriate. She subsequently issued an apology.

Mimi, whose real name is Shamimi Amalina Norhisham, is also a member of the local hip-hop group One Nation Emcees. In a previous Instagram video, she revealed that she had even received feedback from the Federal Territories Mufti.

The Angkat singer then released a re-edited version of the Serumpun MV, making it more fitting for the holy months of Ramadan and Syawal — and audiences are embracing it.

The re-released MV, which dropped on Thursday, has already amassed over 700,000 views on YouTube at the time of writing, with many praising Mimi’s efforts in the comments.
