<h2>Kyle Green, a musician currently residing in Portugal, woke up to a shock when his Instagram page was suddenly flooded with thousands of comments left by Sijil Pelajaran Malaysia (SPM) candidates</h2>
</div>
<div class="segment-body">
<div class="text">
<div class="">
<p>The incident occurred on 30 January when a fictional musician sharing the guitarist&#8217;s name was mentioned in the listening module of this year&#8217;s English SPM paper.</p>
<p>Shortly after the conclusion of the exam, a wave of students vented their frustration by sending hundreds of messages and voice notes to Kyle Green&#8217;s social media accounts, expressing their dissatisfaction with the difficulty of the questions.</p>
<p>&#8220;Did you take a law course or a lecturer course in Australia, bro? My future depends on the answer here,&#8221; commented one SPM student in one of Green&#8217;s Instagram posts.</p>
<p>&#8220;Anyone here because of the SPM test?&#8221; wrote another.</p>

<h2>In an Instagram Story, Green issued an apology and clarified that the narrative heard by SPM students during the exam was purely fictional</h2>
</div>
<div class="segment-body">
<div class="text">
<div class="">
<p>&#8220;I don&#8217;t normally do these types of videos, but today has been a bizarre day.</p>
<p>&#8220;This morning, I woke up to my Instagram inbox full of messages, phone calls on WhatsApp, emails, and all sorts of things from kids in Malaysia,&#8221; said Green.</p>

<h2>Despite the odd messages he had received, the musician did not deny the possibility that the audio used during the listening test might have been inspired by his life story</h2>
</div>
<div class="segment-body">
<div class="text">
<div class="">
<p>However, Green considered the experience to be amusing. He also took the opportunity to dedicate a message to the students who had taken the exam.</p>
<p>&#8220;To the kids in Malaysia, I hope you did well on the test. If you didn&#8217;t, I hope you study harder next time.</p>
<p>&#8220;To those who expressed interest in my music and shared kind words, I appreciate that. I hope you enjoy them and all the best to all of you,&#8221; said the musician.</p>
