Malaysian artist saintraja, AKA singer and producer Raja Azrai, has just released an LGBT music video to accompany his song ‘d4u’ to kick off Pride month.

It’s a bold move for the Malaysian artist. Many of those in the LGBT community describe homosexuality as something largely tolerated in urban areas, as long as there is nothing “too in-your-face.” That means no parades, no protests, and certainly no public displays of affection.

The video for ‘d4u’ is direct, and goes to the literal heart of the difficulties in having an open, gay relationship in modern-day Malaysia. It’s a sweet tale, and for a relative newcomer to the scene, saintraja’s video has beautiful production quality.

Love trumps hate. Show the idiots who wanted to give $1,000 to the best gay-prevention video that they can’t ever make anything more beautiful that the love between two people.
