The world of entertainment was set ablaze recently when news broke of a unique collaboration: Malaysian pop sensation Xavier, known for his energetic stage presence and soulful vocals, would be joining forces with one of Korea’s most beloved K-Pop groups. Fans were in a frenzy, eager to see how the two musical styles would blend together.
Xavier, whose real name is Mohamad Xavier Abdullah, has been a rising star in Southeast Asia for years. With catchy tunes and impressive dance moves, he quickly captured the hearts of audiences across Malaysia, Singapore, and Indonesia. His music often combines elements of pop, R&B, and traditional Malay influences, creating a unique sound that has earned him critical acclaim.
Xavier’s collaboration with the K-Pop group, “Stellar Pulse,” marked a significant step in his career. Stellar Pulse, known for their powerful performances and intricate choreography, have been dominating the Korean music scene for several years. Their music is characterized by strong vocals, energetic beats, and a blend of pop, EDM, and hip-hop influences.
The collaboration itself was born from a chance encounter at an international music festival. Xavier and Stellar Pulse were both performing at the event and had the opportunity to meet backstage. They immediately hit it off, bonding over their shared love for music and performance.
A few months later, the idea for a collaboration emerged. Xavier was looking to expand his musical horizons and reach a wider audience, while Stellar Pulse was interested in incorporating new elements into their sound. The result was “Neon Lights,” a vibrant track that seamlessly blended Xavier’s soulful vocals with Stellar Pulse’s signature K-Pop energy.
The music video for “Neon Lights” was a visual spectacle, showcasing both Xavier and Stellar Pulse’s impressive dance skills. The story depicted the two groups coming together in a futuristic cityscape, where they shared their musical passions and connected through the power of music.

Xavier recalls, “It was exciting and challenging at the same time. Learning the intricacies of K-Pop choreography was definitely a workout! But working with Stellar Pulse was incredibly inspiring. They are true professionals and I learned so much from them."
The members of Stellar Pulse echoed Xavier’s sentiments: “Xavier brought a fresh perspective to our music. His vocal range is impressive, and he added a layer of soulfulness that we hadn’t explored before.”
One particularly memorable moment during the recording process was when Xavier surprised everyone with an impromptu Malay verse in the song’s bridge. It was a testament to his versatility and cultural heritage, adding a unique twist to the track.
