THE BEE Is In Search Of Malaysia's Hidden Talents!

Hello Everyone,

Calling all musicians and artists! The Bee, well-known for its music prowess, is unveiling the first ever Live Karaoke night, a talent search platform, that will serve as an avenue for Malaysian hopefuls to showcase their potential.

Featuring a rotating concept where the theme, judges and prizes differ each month, The Bee Live Karaoke concept keeps it interesting for participants and provides every performer an equal opportunity to show off their talents.

For one evening a month, in-the-shower soloists; karaoke mic-monopolisers; stuck-in-traffic jammers or Whitney wannabes can bask in the spotlight as they croon and dance to their chosen song. It is a night for family, friends and everyone to enjoy music, drinks, food and performances. 

“There are so many talented Malaysians waiting for their big break. For some, it can take years to come, or not at all, which is why we decided to establish a platform for anyone who wants to give their dreams a shot. Live Karaoke is all about giving hidden talent a chance to shine,” said Rahul Kukreja, Director, Brand Partnerships & Talent Bookings, The Bee.

Debuting on October 17, Live Karaoke starts off with ‘Rock’ – a crowd-favourite genre as its theme. Participants will pick a song from a pre-selected list to perform to a panel of judges consisting of industry experts such as local artists, members of music associations, and music label representatives. The winner of the month will go on to battle it out at a Grand Finale which will be held twice a year. Two grand finalists will then go head to head in a battle for the coveted title and prizes. The winner of the Bi-Annual Grand Finale will receive prizes such as; an opportunity to open for an International Act performing at The Bee in 2020, a mentorship programme on winner’s preferred genre, as well as a pair of The Bee Special pass to any show at The Bee, for one year.
