MALAYSIA’s pop sweetheart, Wany Hasrita, is back to light up the festive season with her latest Raya single, “Raya Telah Tiba”.

Released under top record label, Sony Music Malaysia, this fresh and lively track promises to be just the perfect soundtrack for Hari Raya celebrations.

Unlike her previous Raya songs, Raya Telah Tiba takes a more upbeat, playful, and feel-good approach, offering a refreshing twist to Wany’s signature pop ballad and traditional sound.

This time, she’s bringing a fun, high-energy vibe that will get everyone in the mood to celebrate… The song is crafted by rising young composer Affan Mazlan, who skillfully blends modern pop with classic Malay musical influences and a touch of rock, resulting in an infectious and dynamic track.

The Story Behind “Raya Telah Tiba”

Capturing the true essence of Hari Raya, the song paints a relatable picture of the festive season, from the excitement of completing a full month of fasting to the chaos of preparing for the big day.

It also highlights everything Malaysians experience during this special time: rushing to get home to their hometowns, the joy of family reunions, dressing up in dazzling Raya outfits, and even getting an unexpected traffic summons along the way.

“This song is as real as it gets! It’s about everything we go through every Raya, fasting the full month, making last-minute preparations, hurrying back to our hometowns, and of course, showing off our Raya outfits for that ‘OOTD’ moment,” Wany shared excitedly.

A Joyful Recording Experience & A Must-Watch MV

Fun fact, Wany nailed the recording for Raya Telah Tiba in less than two hours. The song instantly clicked with her, making the entire process smooth and enjoyable.

To elevate the experience even further, an exciting music video (MV) has been produced, capturing the essence of Raya with a fun and vibrant village setting.

The MV features Wany in various entertaining scenarios, from the frenzy of last-minute home preparations to the thrill of welcoming family back for Raya.

Adding to the comedic element, the video even includes a scene where Wany gets a traffic summons, a playful nod to real-life Raya struggles! And, of course, no festive MV would be complete without a special Raya dance routine, which is sure to go viral.

Wany’s Sweet Raya Memories & Her Hope For “Raya Telah Tiba”

For Wany, last year’s Raya holds a special place in her heart, as she gets to celebrate it for the first time with her daughter, Aishah Al Iman.

The previous year, she was pregnant during Raya and this time around she’s overjoyed to share the coming festivities with her baby girl and husband.

With Raya Telah Tiba, Wany hopes the song becomes a festive anthem for Malaysians, especially those embarking on the long drive back to their hometowns.

“I hope this song becomes the perfect companion for everyone heading home for Raya. But while you’re singing along and enjoying the drive, don’t forget to watch your speed, you don’t want to end up getting a ticket like in the song!” she joked.

Special Ramadan & Aidilfitri Message

With Ramadan being a time of reflection, gratitude, and spiritual growth, Wany also took the opportunity to remind fellow Muslims to embrace this holy month fully and to seek the blessings of Lailatul Qadar, the most sacred night of Ramadan.

“Let’s make this Ramadan even more meaningful than before. May we all be granted the strength to increase our acts of worship, appreciate the blessings we have, and enter Syawal with hearts full of joy and gratitude,” she expressed.

Available Now On All Digital Platforms

“Raya Telah Tiba” is set to be released on March 7, 2025, on all major digital streaming platforms such as Apple Music, Spotify, and YouTube. The official MV will also be released soon, said Sony Music Malaysia.
