The indie singer songwriter, popular for songs such as “Gadis Semasa” and “Live Your Life” is an ideal match for the Samsung NOTE which inspires and lets users express themselves creatively. I’ve been a fan of Yuna since she appeared in the local music scene and it’s always awesome to see a local artiste rising up to be an international star.
Yuna took a break from the US, where she is based, to meet her local fans at the Samsung GALAXY Note Studio roadshow here recently, where the announcement of her collaboration with Samsung Malaysia took place. She delighted her fans by performing her single “Sparkle” at the event, after having her caricature drawn.

Samsung customers and fans of Yuna will be able to be part of “The Sparkle Project” in co-creating the music video by submitting visual suggestions and ideas for her single via digital space. Selected ideas and visuals will be creatively-interpreted and featured in Yuna’s ‘Sparkle’ music video.
So no more BlackBerry eh, Yuna? 🙂
