Singer Amsyar Lee: 'I'm tired of people saying I have no identity'

Singer Amsyar Lee has voiced his exasperation with persistent online criticism that he lacks a unique identity in his music career. Known for his vocal similarity to the renowned Malaysian songstress Datuk Seri Siti Nurhaliza, Amsyar, whose real name is Muhammad Amir Syafiq Mohd Sadri, 28, implored individuals to cease their negative judgments.

"It's 2026 now, and I'm tired of some Facebook users constantly saying I have no identity," Amsyar wrote on his Threads account. "These are the people with no identity who are busy trying to find out about others. You don't even know how hard people work. You speak so confidently."

Amsyar encouraged people to simply enjoy their lives and refrain from commenting negatively on the efforts of others. He stressed that those who do not appreciate an artist's work should simply ignore it, rather than leaving discouraging remarks. "If you like it, follow. If you don't like it, ignore it," he stated.

His emotional outburst appears to stem from repeated comparisons on Facebook, where some users accuse him of merely riding on the fame of Malaysia's top singer due to his ability to mimic her voice. Amsyar's rise to prominence began when a video of him singing Marsha Milan's ballad 'Cinta' went viral, leading to his selection to represent Malaysia in the reality show 'Sing Asia' in China.

"To those struggling in any field, please don't be discouraged by what people say you can't do. Promise me you'll keep going until you succeed and come back to this thread," he added, offering encouragement to fellow artists.
