The female trio, Nur Shafinaz Mokhtar (Eenaz), Ruzana Ibrahim and Nadia Aqilah Bajuri, also known as Luscious is relieved that this very long awaited ‘baby’ of theirs is finally born. The whole process of making it was fully done by them and their very own humble team.“Things that we went through have made us really stronger, we have worked harder and still are, we have become a better friend to each other, and we’re no longer easily pulled down by criticism. We learned to learn more each day, only to make Luscious a better team,” said Eenaz.

Recently, Khabarkan won its very first award, ‘Bronze Award’ for best Pop Song by Voize Independent Music Award followed by Infinatez’s ‘Ada Masa’ and ‘Stay’ by Estrella. The song also was actually a soundtrack for the famous TV Series, Sindarela played on TV3 during the first quarter of 2008. It is, too, now a soundtrack for another TV series named Spa-Q 2, only it has been remixed to a sad version.“Khabarkan’s lyric was taken from a beautiful poem inspired by Pasha Rahim, combined with a beautiful composition by Andi Ariffin. We decided making 2 different versions because the lyrics could work both in both emotions, sad and hopeful,” says Ruzana. Andi Ariffin Merican, of the group Infinatez, produces all the tracks in the CD.

Other than Khabarkan, they have an upbeat song named Angan and a prelude track called Bintang, both done by Eenaz and Nadia.
“Bintang is my personal favourite. It talks about love, hope and peace. Sometimes a song can make one believe, so we hope that we can do that to our listeners. We hope we can make all believe in peace,” says Nadia.

With nothing but vocals and sincerity to offer, Luscious will have their own way on spicing up our very own local industry.
It’s been awhile now since we have a female group, now this should be very exciting!
