Kier King advances to Indonesia’s ‘D’ Academy Asia 6′ finals

Singer Kier King, a former contestant from Idol Philippines Season 1, has secured a spot in the Top 6 finals of the esteemed Indonesian singing competition, D’ Academy Asia 6. The upcoming round of performances is scheduled for today.

Supporters from the Philippines, Indonesia, and across Asia have rallied behind King as he continues his journey towards a potential victory. Music enthusiasts and fans are encouraged to stay tuned through Indosiar, a major Indonesian television network boasting 26.3 million YouTube subscribers. The competition streams live on Vidio, an Indonesia-based over-the-top video streaming service.

In this new generation of Filipino talent, King has expanded his singing skills by embracing dangdut songs—a genre of Indonesian music that blends elements of Arab and Malay folk music. Acknowledging the challenge, King admits, “Learning dangdut songs and cengkok hasn’t been easy for me. Coming from a pop R&B background and influenced by Western music, the shift to Indonesia’s style has been quite a transition.
