The beautiful Roze duets wif Imran...


Sleeq and Imran... Alyph the small guy in the middle is very talented btw...


Ali Shahab inaction...


The man himself, Imran Ajmain...

Mix & Match: Imran Ajmain, went smoothly eventhough the weather played a lil hide and seek at first. Few people didnt make it for the show cos they tot it was goin to rain, but to those who came, thank you so much. U guys are the best! Especially my friends and all those hiphopheads. Thanks!

Imran's intro was the killin song. He came out on stage wif full confidence and sang the song entitled Imtro. For those who are close to him, and heard his lyrics, u probably had goosebumps like i did. His lyrics were straight from the heart. Some of Imran's track sang on tat nite were produced by Taufik Batisah. One by me, one by Alyph, and the rest would be his own producer. We did the brand new track Sumthin Sumthin and it was aite. I hope i'll have a chance to do tat song wif him again soon. Roze sang a cover If I Aint Got You, and no doubt, she's got one of the best voice i've heard in SG. She might be joinin Singapore Idol tis year, so people, do check her out. Sleeq came next, and ofcourse Sharif showed what he was capable of wif his silky voice. Alif's rhyme were really good, and his punchline made everyone laugh. Talented young man, indeed. Ali came later wif his guitars and played Satu Malaya. Ali is a member of The Funkus btw. Imran closed his set wif his first single Kata Orang, from his upcoming album which will be slated out tis year. More news on the album soon.

Thank you to Music For Good for the event. And also Imran for inviting me to perform.

Tis weekend there will be a 3 day event at The Waterfront, Esplanade again. Organized by the Aging Youth, u wont be despaired wif the line up they have. Some popular names would be BVF, B-Quartet and Lunarin. U have to come down for tis... Till then beautiful people, take care... Peace!

SpeakEasy IV rocked!!!

Last Saturday, i had two show. Well, one was a last notice gig. The show was an anti-smoking show and it was held at Jurong Point, Boon Lay. The journey in the train was kinda long k. Niwae, i didnt know it was a Malay show until i reached the area. The hiphop line up was Chaz Ali, Richard, Alif, Zul, SFB, Velvet Groove and ofcourse me. I only had to do one song. But it was all good, cos i had fun.

Later tat evening, it was time for SpeakEasy. I've been excited bout the event since last year k (which is like 2 weeks ago.. hehe!). And the whole show turned out better than i expected. The show was specially for the platformers who was balloted to perform. All of them did really good, especially House of Anonymous whose hardcore rap music made alot of people stood up to their set. Tat was crazy.

FLK and Apiz ILM were one of the first act to perform. They were good. Apiz ILM even had a spoken word recital bout mats (male gangster) and it was really good. Despite having a sore throat, Apiz still sounded good on the mic. Infact, he sound a lil bit cooler... Haha!

Greta Georges appearance wif her poetry slam was definately sumthin different. She was freakin quick k. She could talk non-stop k. Haha! She had to freestyle with me bout being a book. I had to freestyle, but Greta's none rhyming freestyle killed me. Haha! And btw, she's really hot. We need more poeple like her at Speakeasy. Haha...

Nick from Muon brought the show into another direction. His beats were off the hook. At first i had to walk around to pick anyone up to rap/freestyle over his beats. But when he played his beats, i couldnt control myself and so i started the ball rolling by dropping a verse. After tat, one by one, emcees came up and grab the mic to spit. Tats was one of the craziest shit i've ever seen k. I think next month, we might have tat again. Btw, Nick's bass is the shit! Mad props to him.

Dual Flavaz closed the whole show on a high note. After been missing in action for awhile, they came back wif a great set. Their beats were off the hook too and their flow was sick. Definately a good start for them this year.



The show was hosted by me and Imran, and it was more fun to have two host actually. Imran even gave a lil preview of his show which is gonna be held this Saturday, 14th January at the Waterfront, Esplanade. So people, pls come down if u're free. I got my first Localbrand tee and i wore it tat day. Thank you to T from Localbrand. Woo hoo!

Thank you to those who came. Pls dont stop coming to Speakeasy. Next change would be 4th February. Yeay!
