Multilingual Diversity

Check out these two songs by Malaysian performers.

The first, by TooPhat and Yasin, contains elements of hybridization through the marriage of Arabic and English. A wonderful hybrid.

And the second, by PointBlanc, contains vivid representation of nativization of English through the domestication of context (e.g. the town of Ipoh) and Malaysianisms.
