"3 Suara is a collaborative album by three Malaysian singers: Jaclyn Victor, Ning Baizura and Shila. The album was released on January 6th, 2011. The concept of the album is the sound of Malaysian pop music in the 80's and the 90's. It is said that the inspirations for the album are the local women singers from the 80's such as Noorkumalasari, Francessca Peter, Zaiton Sameon and more."
