For more pics of Platform 4, jus go the links under the Gallery section. But dont be mad if u there is too many personal pics. Hehehe! U noe wat i'm sayin...

I didnt take much pics at the last part of the show, cos i was busy hosting. Yes i was the host again. But tis time i feel a lil bit better than the Semi... hehehe... cos i think i did a good job. But i think overall, Platform 4 was quite an upset.

Too Phat didnt turn up for the event, jus like Phlowtron two weeks ago. The reason is totally unknown. FashionJoove members must be disappointed, cos they were told tat they could meet and greet them. I'm glad my siblings didnt come along, or else they will be upset too. Niwae, Switch did the opening. Its was great to see him in action again. He gave out copies of his first single "No More Mr Nice Guy!" on tat day and I personally think tat it was a good idea. Way to go! I performed after Switch. My set was ok. I think i was a lil bit loud on the mic. Then X-statics, did their set. I think they are my favourite crew at the moment. They have the best rhymes and beats.Azrael is like Kanye West now. His beats are mad lah! Bless performed after a long time, and as always, he's good.

Triple Noize was invited to perform after the organisers found out tat Too Phat might not be coming. Now tats bad of the organisers. Triple Noize did the "Yes! Yes! Ya'll" song and i think its was dope shit! I love the hook alot. Fee said something like "You better mean it when u say support the locals" and i noe it was meant for Fye from Fyewerkz, cos earlier on he said tat on stage, feelin like Abg Hatta, tat we should support the locals or in other words buy his stuff. OK, we get it. So i think Triple Noize was mad cos they were not invited to perform at P4, until the day before the event. Hmmmm... Politics, u noe wat i mean. But i must say tat Triple Noize is losing fans in the scene. Some people left Youth Park when they did their set in the evening and tat sucks ok. I was on stage wif them as part of Beatboxx, their very own production team. But u noe, sometimes shit happens. Triple Noize is still great to me.

The rest of the performances were Trilogy, Pakar Irama, Public Eyes and BFC. The best we have in the scene, wat more can i say. All of them were great. But i think Trivilation should have performed for the Final rather than Semi. Then it would seem complete.

The competition kicked off wif Corrupt Ethic. They did some medley of songs, and i think it was a lil too much. Lesson learnt, never mix too many songs in 4 minutes. Next was G-Feminiz. I think the small lil cute Mia was great. The rest of her crewmates were not tat good. They probably blamed it on the sound system, which i think was terrible, but they were given second chance to perform again. It doesnt make much differences anyway. Ninja Muscle was next. As usual, some people tell me tat he's weird and all, but i personally think tat he's got his own style. His rhymes were straight up, it was dope and it replys to watever people have been saying for the past few weeks, and tat is, "i'm not copying FreAkyZ"... Now tats tight. But his chorus was kinda wack a lil bit. Not harmonize actually. But he was dope! Tats it! Next was Nthral. I personally think he was the best among the 6 finalist, cos his diction was very clear, chorus was so catchy and the beat was dope. The beat was self-produced by him, and it sounded like one of Dre's production. Seriously. I sang along wif him during the chorus. Can u believe it? Yadin was up next and i think he was good. The same Yadin tat performs everytime. No comments. Psykeletics was the last contestant. I think they have a nice song, but there was not much impact in it. Wah, feelin The Source jap!

And the winner for the Finals was Ninja Muscle, while Nthral came in second and G-Feminiz came in third. Congrats to Zainal aka Ninja Muscle. I feel a lil bit proud tat he used my beats for all three rounds, but i think his ryhmes was the main factor in winning the competiton. Way to go dude! And thank you for representing The F Word. Much respect!

Tats bout it for Platform 4. Peace!

Rama gave me a good example of why i should ask for payment for a gig. And i think from now on i should apply it. But where were all the people who made a big fuss bout gettin paid? Oh well...

Now i have no idea when will i be performing again. Jeez!

The F Word is still here...

Hello people!

First things first, i know some of u are mad at me for closing tis blog before. But u noe shit happens. It took me some time to realise wat i did before was damn silly. I almost gave up the thing i love the most. Jeez! I love performin. And i love makin music. I love entertainin people. I think tats my gift. I can never give up tis shit. Seriously. Whenever i see someone perform, my hearts say, "hey, i can do better!"... Hahaha! U prolly think i'm boastful, but no, tats wat drives me to keep doin more shit. And i admit, i aint tat good. But i noe i've got people out there who will always be there to support me. So i dont wanna disappoint them and also myself. Im still gonna be here no matter wat happens... Promise!

OK! Last Saturday i hosted Platform 4 Semi-Finals and it didnt turn out tat well... Niwae here are some of the pics....

I personally think i suck at hosting. And i bet lot of people will agree wif tat. But the gig went really smooth until the BBoy battle turned ugly. They started fightin wif each other jus bcos they couldnt take turns to do their moves. Now tats very childish. And some people are jus so freakin annoyin tat they have to act like they are some big star in the scene. Jeez! During the fight, alot of people left the hall, so it was very disappointin after tat. The people who fought have no total respect for the other performers. Dry Peanutz had to perform infront of a few people who are totally not payin attention to them, and tat sucks ok. I have been in tat situation and i noe how it feels like. Tats when u feel like givin up everything. But Dry Peanutz is a great crew, and much respect to them.

The people who qualified to the Finals are Yadin, Nthral, Ninja Muscle, G-Feminiz, Corrupt Ehtic and Psykeleticz. Duo Phonics forgot their lyrics again like in first round. Syarif was good, but his lyric were not tat original. So tats why he didnt qualify. I personally think tat Nthral was damn good tat day. But i really think he needs to produce his own beats. Well, good luck to all the finalist...

Overall, i think the gig was ok. I had fun hosting. Some people came up to me and said i did a good job. But i dont think i wanna host again... hehehe... after wat happened last Saturday. Well, i'll see how.

I'm performin on tis Sunday, 27th June 2004, at Youth Park. The gigs starts at 3pm and ends at 9pm or maybe earlier. Other performances by X-statics, Switch, Pakar Irama, Bless, Public Eyes and not forgettin Too Phat. Do come down ok. Thank you.


The F Word is still producing beats for people. If u're interested in gettin beats, u can email me at the_word_f@hotmail.com. I will put up some of my works on soundclick in a few days time, so check back here aite. More updates on tis site coming soon. Tis will be like FreakyZ's personal website. Hehehe!

Thank you to those who tagged. Love ya'll... :D
