Following the success of “Garah,” his duet with Mimifly, Hael Husaini returns with a new single, “Selesa”.
Written by the singer himself alongside Iqie Hugh, the song talks about unrequited love, unappreciated sacrifices and the pain of letting go of someone you love for their happiness with someone else.
However, “Selesa” is more than just a song about heartbreak, as it explores the sacrifices that go unnoticed, unspoken feelings and the strength it takes to let go of someone you love for their own happiness.
Speaking about his latest single, Hael expressed, “To me, ‘Selesa’ is a song that reflects real-life experiences. Sometimes, we love someone very much to the extent that we are willing to do anything to see them happy, even if it meant ending up getting hurt ourselves.”
“What makes it even more painful is having to help someone we love find happiness with another person, knowing that the happiness we once hoped for is no longer ours. I hope this song can represent the feelings of those who have gone through similar experiences and offer comfort to those who are learning to let go.”
The official music video, which was filmed in Jakarta and directed by Prialangga, features popular Malaysian actress Anna Jobling, alongside two rising Indonesian soap opera actors, Antoni Blanco Junior and Mahdy Reza.
The song has also been selected as the main soundtrack for the local drama series “Suamiku Anak Emak,” starring Emma Maembong, Keith Foo, Izzue Islam and others.
In another exciting news, Hael will be representing Malaysia on the international stage with a scheduled performance at the ASEAN-Korea Music Festival (ROUND Festival) in South Korea this weekend on 8 November 2026. His participation marks another opportunity for the award-winning singer and songwriter to introduce Malaysian music and talent to international audiences.
