Zee Avi formerly known as Koko Kaina.
Many might not know her yet but she is one talented girl that I got to know recently. And why do I feature her here? Because...she's a Malaysian!
Born in Miri, moved to KL, gone to London and now in US. This girl is a songwriter, guitarist and singer. Talented? You bet! The rest of her story, I took it from wikipedia. Read on...
Avi originally posted a video of her first song on YouTube because one of her friends had missed her first performance in Kuala Lumpur, so she created a video on YouTube for him to watch. He convinced Avi to leave the video up, and soon she received positive feedback, which inspired her to put more videos on YouTube. After she was featured YouTube, she attracted the attention of Brushfire Records, with which she would join. Her song "No Christmas For Me" is featured on Brushfire Records's 2008 Christmas album This Warm December: A Brushfire Holiday. Her single "Bitter Heart" was first to become available on the US iTunes store, and her full self-titled debut album was released on May 19, 2009. On the day of her album's release, YouTube featured her on the front page in Spotlight: Music Tuesday. She is currently touring the United States.

I think she's really talented and I hope that she'll make it in this not so kind entertainment world! Even if she doesn't, I hope she'll enjoy what she likes and just make the best out of it.
This is what I called "Malaysia Got Talent"!
