Shila Amzah has moved to Hong Kong, where she hopes to bring her career to the next level.
During an interview, she admitted it’ll be more difficult this time around.
How’s your Cantonese so far?
I’m having a really hard time because I think it’s more difficult to learn Cantonese than Mandarin. Some words are similar but the slang is different. That needs a little getting used to.
That’s why I need to spend more time in Hong Kong, and I’m trying my very best because Hong Kong plays a very big role in the Chinese market. That’s why I took the huge step to learn both dialects.
You’re about to release your debut Mandarin album. Can you tell us more about it?
It’s in Mandarin because that’s something I promised my fans I’d do. I composed about 90% of the songs and because I can’t write in Mandarin, I told my lyricists what to write.
