Zee Avi - "Kantoi" Sing-Along

I've added the lyrics to Zee Avi's fun sing-along track "Kantoi" which is sung in Manglish (Malay-English mix). The video was taken from Zee's performance at the Solar Powered Plastic Plant.

enggak sengaja dengerin lagu ini di reels Instagram. Seketika jadi ingat masa-masa waktu masih berjuang merantau di Negeri sembilan, ahh Nostalgia sekali. Salam dari Indonesia ☺️

[@selie7]

Kantoi means 'get caught' 'fail' in malay language. i.e Get caught in cheating by your wife or fail in exam (spm pun kantoi) Not an official language. But its been used as a street word/dialect.

[@unwellknown]

kantoi in indonesian slanga is ketahuan

[@2NE1BIGMoMmY]

Sulhi Basri or another word for it is simply “busted”

[@evanpasha]

kantoi in indonesian (slang) is T E R C Y D O E K :v

[@insureksionist666]

I'm indonesian, my ex-girlfriend is malaysian.. when i hear Zee Avi sing, i always remember her..

[@basdavdan]

I guess there's a little complication about who got 'kantoi-ed'. This is what I think. For most part of the song, Zee is relating her side of the story. Then when she sings "Akhir kata she accepted his apology", Zee wraps up the story in the perspective of a third person. "She" is actually Zee. Therefore, it was Zee who was cheating on her boyfriend with Tommy!

[@kchmyy]

I love your imagination
