Rising Malaysian artiste Seksitito makes his highly anticipated debut with “Gelisah”, a smooth, emotionally charged R&B single that unravels the inner conflict of pretending to be over someone — when, deep down, the feelings still haunt you.
Sung entirely in Malay, “Gelisah” (which translates to restless) is a sonic journal entry about longing, late-night honesty, and ego. It’s the moment you stop lying to yourself — set to a moody, minimalist R&B backdrop.
This debut is part of Seksitito’s ongoing effort to promote the R&B genre in Malaysia, bringing emotional vulnerability to the forefront of local music. It also marks the beginning of his mission to bridge the cultural soundscape between Malaysia and the Philippines — two nations with deep traditions of emotional storytelling in their musical heritage.
Published by MFMF Music, “Gelisah” was written by Seksitito, with Asyraf Hardy and Azarel Kislon as co-writers. The track was composed and produced by Ezra Alfandy, known for his lush, stripped-back R&B arrangements that allow raw emotion to take centre stage.
“Everyone brought truth to the table,” says Seksitito. “This wasn’t just a song — it was a shared emotion.”
“Gelisah” is available to stream on Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube, Deezer, and all major digital platforms. Listeners can also watch the official handwritten lyric visualiser on YouTube — an aesthetic nod to diary entries no one was meant to read.
Seksitito is a Sarawakian-Filipino R&B singer-songwriter redefining Malay music with modern soul. Influenced by R&B icons such as Usher, Chris Brown, Jamie Foxx, Luther Vandross, Musiq Soulchild and more, his music blends confession with composition. With ‘Gelisah’, he introduces himself not through noise, but through honesty — setting the tone for what’s to come.
“This is just the first chapter. I’m building something that connects hearts — from Borneo to the Philippines,” he added.
