FRUSTRATED by recurring voice problems that plague him before live performances, rock singer Nasharul Aweera Norhissham is contemplating retirement from the music industry, Kosmo! reported.
The 35-year-old said he tends to lose his voice during live performances, but his voice is fine when he is not working.
“Every time I have a show, I lose my voice. When there’s no performance, everything is fine,” he posted on social media.
Known for his powerful high-pitched vocals, Aweera said he no longer recognises his current voice and is struggling to accept the condition.
“I hate my voice now. This isn’t me,” he wrote.
In May, the Mojo frontman revealed that he was still undergoing treatment after previously experiencing problems with his vocal cords.
> The scars from the Putra Heights gas pipeline explosion may have faded for some residents, but the search for answers continues as they await the release of the full investigation report, Utusan Malaysia reported.
Pertubuhan Kebajikan Penduduk KKSB secretary Badly Nordin said affected residents would continue to seek clarification from the Selangor government on what caused the incident a year ago.
“We will not give up. Although many residents have returned to work and some have moved away, we still want the full report on the explosion to be made public,” he said when contacted.
Badly said residents deserved to know the findings of the investigation and what led to the incident.
He added that affected residents had also filed claims against several parties to seek accountability, with court proceedings still ongoing.
Selangor Mentri Besar Datuk Seri Amirudin Shari previously said the full report could not be released as information from several federal agencies had yet to be obtained, while legal matters involving residents had also not been finalised.
