Bunga, real name Noor Ayu Fatini Mohd Bakhari (or Noor Ayu Fatini), is the fresh-faced Malaysian rapper from Slim River, Perak, born on January 24, 2000, who's totally shaking up the hip-hop scene. Starting as a poem-loving teen who dreamed of politics, she dove into rap at 18 after her viral *baju kurung*-clad performance at a local competition called U TRY RAP Please, snagging a spot as a finalist and kickstarting her rise—she even raps in Mandarin, collabed with Pink Sweats on "Oxytocin," and opened for Coldplay in KL.
Now 25 (as of 2025), this hijab-wearing trailblazer writes raw lyrics about personal growth and bullies, dropped her debut single "Bunga" in 2019, starred in her biopic *Aku, Bunga*, and hit big with tracks like "Belai" (over 2.9M Spotify streams), all while repping Malay culture on global stages from Times Square billboards to international features. With recent bangers like "Pilihan Mu" and "SELANGOR KAN ADA!", she's proving rappers can bloom in traditional roots.
