SINGAPORE - Teenage Malaysian rapper Bunga stands out from the rest of her contemporaries in the hip-hop scene - she is the only one who performs wearing the traditional Malay attire of hijab and baju kurung.
"I want this to be my identity. I want people to see me in a baju kurung and go oh yeah, that's Bunga'. I think its good for both the youths and for the culture," the 19-year-old, whose real name is Noor Ayu Fatini Mohd Bakhari, says in a telephone interview.
