REV Media Group has introduced Malaysia’s first AI-powered boyband, Project Thric3, marking a bold new step in the country’s entertainment industry. This digital trio, comprising Adam, Cedrix, and Kaizer, brings together distinct AI personalities designed to capture a wide fanbase.
Combining elements of music, interactive social media content, and virtual personas, Project Thric3 aims to reshape how fans engage with entertainment. As AI technology continues to make waves across industries, the group represents Malaysia’s embrace of digital innovation in pop culture.
Adam is the group’s lead vocalist and visual, offering a dreamy yet approachable persona. Dubbed the “virtual boyfriend” of social media, he charms fans with his smooth voice and ability to talk about everything from music to anime. Cedrix is the unpredictable, sports-loving member who blends his passion for football and cars with sharp wit and internet humour. His content spans Champions League breakdowns to viral memes, keeping fans on their toes. Kaizer, the group’s wild card, brings boundless energy and comedy. A drummer and gym enthusiast, his chaotic rants and comical antics make him the perfect foil to Adam and Cedrix’s more polished personalities.
Together, the trio delivers a mix of heart, humour and chaos, tapping into diverse online subcultures. Their debut marks a new direction for REV Media, blending music with interactive digital content to create a fully immersive fan experience. However, the launch of Project Thric3 has also sparked mixed reactions.
While the concept of AI-powered content creators isn’t new, Project Thric3’s debut has sparked a strong reaction in Malaysia. Critics argued that the country is home to a wealth of local talent and question why AI was chosen over human performers. One commenter expressed disappointment, saying, “Countless talents available in the country, but you choose to use AI slop.”
However, defenders of Project Thric3 argue that AI is just a new form of creative expression, similar to the virtual idols that have found success in Japan. “Taste in music is subjective,” one user noted, adding that the AI-generated group sounds much better than expected. With the rise of AI-generated content, the question remains: is this the future of music, or just a passing trend, and what do you think of the group?
