In conjunction with this year’s Ramadan and Syawal, top local entertainment label Rocketfuel Entertainment has introduced a special initiative with the launch of seven festive songs spanning various genres, narratives, and emotions.
From upbeat, modern rhythms to soul-stirring ballads, each track carries its own unique identity while remaining united under the spirit of togetherness — aligning with the Astro Salam Ramadan 2026 tagline, “Bila Bersama, Lagi Jadi” (Better Together).
In an even more exciting twist, all seven songs will be compiled into a special EP, effectively forming a unique and interconnected “festive universe” under the Rocketfuel Entertainment umbrella.
“Raya Macam Raya” – Hael Husaini and ALPHA
Malaysian top singer Hael Husaini is back for another round of Raya Cheer. This time, the top star joins up with rising band ALPHA to release "Raya Macam Raya".
The collaboration is a fresh, upbeat track bursting with M-Pop colors. Composed by Hael himself alongside Iqie Hugh, the song highlights the excitement of Eid preparations and ensuring everything is perfect for Syawal.
Hael noted: “When Eid approaches, we want everything to be complete. This song depicts that spirit—when preparations are set and we are with loved ones, that is when the true celebration is felt.”
In addition to the collaboration, Hael Husaini presents a heartwarming solo single titled “Lagu Raya Untukmu” as a token of appreciation for those who have supported his artistic journey.
Hael stated: “This song is a special gift for the fans who have stood by me year after year.”
“Rindu Raya” – ALPHA
Launched on February 21, 2026, this festive track showcases a different side of the group ALPHA. With a mid-tempo pop feel, the song explores the theme of longing for family and one's hometown—a sentiment that intensifies as Ramadan and Syawal approach. To date, the song has garnered over 200,000 views on the Rocketfuel Network YouTube channel.
ALPHA shared: “This song is quite different from our usual style. We wanted to highlight a calmer, more soulful side. The feeling of missing family is universal, and we believe many can relate to ‘Rindu Raya’.”
“Kampung Kita” – Wani Kayrie
One of Sabah's favourite songstress, Wani Kayrie, returns to enliven the season with “Kampung Kita,” a sequel to her previously viral hit “Cak Cak Cekuk.” It maintains the same cheerful elements and a catchy melody. The song revolves around the excitement of returning to the village—not just to see family, but to meet someone special.
Wani said: “I love festive songs that are fun and make people want to dance. ‘Kampung Kita’ has that vibe, but at the same time, it tells a sweet story about the fluttering heart when you're about to see someone you like.”
“Duit Raya” – Sharul Kamal and Mierul Aiman
Performed by Sharul Kamal and Mierul Aiman, this track carries a message deeply rooted in today’s societal reality. With the opening lyrics, “ada duit takda duit, raya tetap raya” (with or without money, it’s still Eid), the song reminds us that Aidilfitri is celebrated with sincerity and togetherness, not just material wealth.
Sharul explained: “We want ‘Duit Raya’ to be a light yet meaningful reminder. No matter the circumstances, Eid is about family and love.”
Mierul added: “The rap elements give it a modern touch. We want to deliver a positive message in a relaxed and fresh way.”
“Senyum Gugur Di Hujung Doa” – Dayang Nurfaizah (releasing on March 6)
Not every Syawal is celebrated with pure joy. “Senyum Gugur Di Hujung Doa” by Dayang Nurfaizah—composed by Hael Husaini and Iqie Hugh—is a melancholic ballad about longing for loved ones who have passed away. Dayang’s soulful and poignant delivery makes this one of the most touching works in this year’s collection.
Dayang said: “Every Eid, there are those who feel a sense of loss. I sing this song with a sincere heart for those who miss their loved ones. I hope it serves as a companion and a comfort to the soul.”
“Restu Raya” – Nadeera (releasing on March 6)
Nadeera captures attention with “Restu Raya,” featuring an engaging melodic arrangement and a story relatable to many.
Nadeera explained: “I want this to be a song that everyone can sing along to, regardless of age. Eid is about togetherness, and I hope this song brings everyone together.”
According to the Head of Rocketfuel Entertainment, Sher Leen Wee: “We want every festive song this year to have a clear identity. Some are cheerful, some are reflective, and some are modern. This is the reality of our society—diverse backgrounds and feelings, yet united when Syawal arrives.”
