Ernie Zakri is working on a collaborative album, "Sahabat"
5 May - Ernie Zakri recently revealed that she will soon be releasing another album, which will see her collaborating with friends from Malaysia and Indonesia.
The singer, who spoke about the album titled "Sahabat", said that it will contain eight duet songs that she will be recording with her friends, including Dayang Nurfaizah and Ade Govinda.
"This album is a collaboration between friends from two countries. In Malaysia, many people already know that I will be collaborating with Dayang Nurfaizah and Amir Masdi. In Indonesia too, I will collaborate with Anggi Marito, Rony Parulian, Andi Rianto and Ade Govinda. There are several other names, but this is still in the planning stage," she said.
Ernie said that she has recorded four songs so far, with the other four currently being prepared. It is noted that Ernie has already collaborated with Indonesia's Ade Govinda through the hit songs, "Hal Hebat" and "Masing Masing".
"Actually, because of the collaboration with Ade, I had a way and opportunity in Indonesia. I thought, why not make an album instead of just duet singles. I am collaborating with Universal Music Indonesia as well for the project," she said.
It is noted that "Masing Masing" was previously recognised by the Malaysian Recording Industry Association (RIM) as the record holder for the longest-lasting number one song on RIM's domestic charts in 2024.
