20 Thousand hits!

Wohoo! We hit the 20K mark baby! I hope y'all enjoyed the blog so far. We had the charting of my comeback career as an artiste and record label owner, we had pics and videos, blackberries, good places to eat and even some recent controversies. Lookout for the build up to the release of my long delayed solo album "Straight to the Point" next!

I will try to blog the experiences leading up to the album hitting the shelves so everyone will have a glimspe of what happens in the process. Hope you guys had fun reading this blog as much as I had fun updating it. Tell yo' friends 'bout it and get them to visit regularly too.

I'd like to take this chance to thank everyone for their continued support so far and hope everyone will cop the album when it drops. Rappers from Ipoh need to eat and pay bills:P Take care and have a good week ahead! Here are some random pics from the Ipohmali music video shoot. Enjoy:-

"Ipohmali" Controversy?

One of my peoples stumbled onto this blog and told me to check it out. I must say it is quite funny how people's reaction and comments are to this lil' controversy.

Apparently,the user based web dictionary Wikipedia defines the word "Ipohmali" as ....gasp, "Prostitutes"! So there is quite a bit of hoohar...and people starting to question why I did the song..etc Read it all here and make the judgement yourself!

This was my response in the comments section:

Comment by Point Blanc on May 17, 2007 5:04 pm

Wow, I didn’t know my song will create so much controversy. After reading every comment and having been told by my people not to comment, I feel it is the least I can do to speak out.

Let’s be honest, does the word “Ipohmali” really mean prostitutes? Or because Wikipedia says so? I hear a lot of jargon like ignorance thrown around so let’s think for a second. What is Wikipedia? As far as I know and correct me if I’m wrong, wikipedia is a “user based” dictionary. I understand it as people writing in their own definitions for particular words. It is NOT the official recognized dictionary of the real world.

I have been a Malaysian and Ipoh-ite for most of my life. I have never heard of the term “Ipohmali” defined as “prostitutes”. In fact, most of us here know it as” from Ipoh” hence all the famous lines like ” Ipohmali tadak sombong”…etc. Heck if it meant prostitute, this word wouldn’t be used so much in our culture. Do u mean somebody is calling you a prostitute when they react to you telling them you’re from Ipoh? Cos’ the general reply from non Ipoh ppl who after finding out you’re from Ipoh would be” Oh, Ipohmali ah?”. And honestly, if it meant “prostitutes” it wouldn’t get played on radio.

C’mon people. Let’s keep it real here. I do agree that if a foreigner does search Wikipedia he will be shocked but then again that is beyond my control. Cos’ Ipohmali’s true definition is NOT prostitutes. Even the definition on Wikipedia describes it as pimps telling customers that these girls are from Ipoh and at that time most beautiful gals are from Ipoh. So the word does mean “from Ipoh” and NOT prostitutes.

I wrote this song with the purest of intentions. To make us Malaysians be proud of where we’re from. To use our OWN slangs and make it cool instead of always using and emulating foreign slangs like Yo, whassup…etc. Hence I made the title “Ipohmali”. and if anyone really listens to the lyrics, it is a song about my life story to inspire many Malaysians out there that no matter where they are from, they can make their dreams come true if they put their minds to it.

So for those who think I wrote this song without any thought or by plain ignorance, you are wrong. We should try to open our minds more. Sometimes we might think we are really open minded or smart to comment on things and point fingers, but sometimes we have to look at ourselves too.

Much respect to those that supported me and have kept an open mind. Bo hoo to those that don’t see it. Get the album “Straight to the Point” hitting record stores in June. Maybe might have more Wikipedia unfriendly titles;)


Sigh, so there it is , controversy in my music. And I'm not that type of artiste to keep quite and not say something. What do you guys think of all this?

"Ipohmali" still No.1 on MET10!

Hey everyone! See what the power of organized voting can do? " Ipohmali" is still no 1 on the MET 10 charts for the second week running! Let's keep it there for as long as we can!

Thanks to everyone that voted and congratulated me on this. You guys rock, still need your help to keep it there:) Meanwhile watchout for the music video on 8TV and Hitz.TV! Spread the word peoples!

Yesterday (6.5.2007) was one of the best days of my life!!! Why? Here's why:-

- Ipohmali hit no. 1 on Hit.fm's MET 10 charts! Voyeur Records's first of many number one songs!

- My favourite football club of all time Man United were crowned CHAMPIONS of ENGLAND!!! It's amazing I have never got the time to post anything about my favourite FC but peeps close to me will know that I'm a huge & passionate United fan. Here's a lil' trivia for all y'all, my last album (AMMO's Return of the Boombox) was released the year United last won the league. This year is the year I relaunch and release my solo album. PLUS we won the league the day my single hit no.1!!! It is my destiny to love United so much:)ahahaha..to all you Chelsea fans, see you guys at the FA Cup finals!!! Glory Glory Man United!!!

- I got my final mixes of my album at last. They sound great and the next stage is to send them for mastering:)

Indeed it was a good day, I hope it was good for all of you out there too:) I also would like to use this post to wish my beloved dad a happy belated b'day! He turned 57 on 5.5.07! He got the best belated b'day present too as he is a huge United fan! 'Till the next post, peace.


Man United, Champions of England 2006/07!!!'Nuff said!

Ipohmali No.1 at MET10 at last!!!!

After almost 5 months on Hitz.fm's Malaysian Top 10 (MET 10) charts, "Ipohmali" hits the no 1 spot at long last! Thank you Malaysia for taking the time to vote and making this song the numero uno song in the country for this week.

I urge everybody to keep voting so the song can maintain this spot for as long as it can. Once again, thank you Malaysia for all the support and love.

Out and about

Ok, I need to blog more and if I only talk about all my work, it might be a bit boring to some. So I'm going to do the some standard out and about post.

Recently I went to Patrick Teoh's steamboat joint at Taman Sea SS23 (opposite the Projet petrol station). I didn't see him there but I heard the food was good. Indeed, it is one of the freshest steamboat joint I've been to. And when I say "freshest" I don't mean the ebonic slang but literally fresh. The seafood( prawns & crabs) were served still alive and kicking. The soup choices were great too as it had a special herbal soup you can throw your steamboat stuff into.

Only drawback for me was they had no tomyam soup. I always have tomyam soup for steamboat. Oh, well... Please do checkout the place if you crave for some steamboat that is fresh and herbal:) Ok, Patrick, here's a lil mention to make up for you coming down to my video shoot;)


The food.....



The boiling pot....


The ambience and the people....


The rapper with his crackberry addiciton....











I recently also recorded a jingle along with Uncle REAL for an upcoming Celcom radio ad. Check it out on radio soon. Will upload the pics once I transfer it from my other camera.

Well, thats all folks, me bloggin like a regular dude. Till' the next post then....
Update:Straight to the Point album in mixing stage and mastering soon.
