  1. ^ Certain award groups do not simply award one winner. They acknowledge several different recipients, have runners-up, and have third place. Since this is a specific recognition and is different from losing an award, runner-up mentions are considered wins in this award tally. For simplification and to avoid errors, each award in this list has been presumed to have had a prior nomination.

Malaysian boy band, KRU have received numerous awards and nominations for their contributions to music.[1] They were formed in 1992 by brothers Norman, Yusry and Edry Abdul Halim. At the second Anugerah Industri Muzik in 1995, they nominated for Best Album and Best Pop Album and won the Best Vocal Performance in an Album (Group) for their third album, Awas! (1994).[2] The group released their fourth album, Ooh! La! La! (1996),[3] which was nominated for the Best Pop Album and won the Best Album and Best Engineered Album at the awards's fourth ceremony in 1997. It includes the lead single of the same name, which was nominated for the Best Music Video.

KRU released their debut compilation album, KRUmania (1997),[4] which yielded two new singles, "Fanatik" and a cover version of "Getaran Jiwa" featuring a digital duet with P. Ramlee.[5][6] The compilation's first single, "Fanatik" won six awards including Best Music Video and Best Directed Music Video at the 1997 Malaysian Music Video Awards and for "Getaran Jiwa", KRU recognised as the first Malaysian artist to have a digital duet with a deceased musician by The Malaysia Book of Records (MBOR). With their debut English album, The Way We Jam (1998),[7] KRU won the Best Engineered Album, while its lead single of the same name won the Best Music Video at the sixth ceremony of the Anugerah Industri Muzik in 1999.

In 2000, the KRU brothers came up with Tyco, whose members consisted of 3D animated versions of the brothers themselves and recognised as the Malaysia's first virtual artiste by the MBOR.[8][9] At the inaugural ceremony of the Anugerah Planet Muzik (APM) in 2001, KRU won the Best Duo/Group, while at the APM's eighth ceremony in 2008, they won the Anugerah Cipta Planet Muzik.
