Yamani Abdillah was recently eliminated from reality singing series, Big Stage, for failing to find his own musical identity.

It's especially difficult for the 18-year-old, as he has to bear the extra burden of living up to his father's legacy. Yamani is the son of famous Malaysian singer Datuk Jamal Abdillah.
