COMEDIAN and radio presenter Douglas Lim is prepared to accept criticism for his new satirical song Aduh! in which he collaborated with rapper SonaOne, reported Harian Metro.
“Comedians like myself are really thick-skinned because if I do a comedy show and if the audience doesn’t laugh, that itself is a form of criticism for me.
“So, I’m okay if I get criticism for this song because it is up to them whether they like it or not, and I’m open to receiving any feedback,” he said.
The comedian also said he is open to more collaborations with SonaOne if the opportunity arises.
Aduh! is the first collaboration between the two artistes.

A check at the morning market in Tikam Batu found that the price of mackerel had gone down to between RM7 and RM13 per kg from between RM15 and RM18 per kg previously.
Fishmonger Mohd Shamil Zulkifli, 27, said the increase in catch was due to better weather, the full moon and high tide, adding that consumers are buying more fish since prices went down.
