He grew up watching Cartoon Network, but later changed to Nickelodeon with time.

Character lore
Syamsul plays the alter-ego Blake Orton, a 21-year-old who, after coming in contact with a mysterious blue liquid on his 10th birthday, gained blue dyed hair and started having a personality similar to Bloo from Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends, as well as a passion for making music. Blake then realized he had the ability to create worlds, and created his own in the process, created his own imaginary world based on his childhood memories as well as building it on positivity and endless creativity.
