Let Yo’ Air Force Shine (Don’t scuf mine)

(Yo lets do this, Ay Yo)
It all started back in ’82 in NYC/ Young cats rockin’ Air Ones taggin’ graffiti/
In them b-ball courts, its your hottest property/
Back then if you don’t own a pair, you live in misery/
Now let me take you through a lil’ sneaker history/
On the feet of legend Moses Malone you see/
Next time you drop by a Nike store/ You think of Bruce Kilgore/
The man made the kicks that you keep lustin’ for/
In the 90’s Jay Z brought it back again/
In the streets it was cool to rock Airs again/
Vintage Air Force Ones started to cost like a bottle of Crist champagne
I can’t complain that/ The whole world caught fire/
Uptowns is the ultimate sneaker of your desire/
So to all my Air Force heads its time to shine/
Throw your Uptowns in the air/ cos’ I got mine

Chorus
Sneakerheads around the world take out your toothbrushes/
Clean yo’ kicks, keep ‘em fresh, nobody touches/
Let yo’ Air Force shine, yo’ Air Force shine, yo’ Air Force shine/
Just don’t scuf mine
Sneakerheads around the world take out your toothbrushes/
Clean yo’ kicks, keep ‘em fresh, nobody touches/
Let yo’ Air Force shine, yo’ Air Force shine, yo’ Air Force shine/
Just don’t scuf mine

25 years to the present/ 2007/ sneakerheads campin’ out for 24-7/
Like 7 Eleven/ All for the sake of coppin’ a size 11/
Cos’ ownin’ quickstrikes is heaven/
From New York Harlem uptown to Damansara Uptown/
All I see is kids rockin; Uptowns/
And I got mah’ pairs too/ You can’t see me movin’ through/
Rockin’ Invisibles in blue/
And I don’t feel that monkey copy with a star on it/ Its flashy/
But sometimes them kicks don’t fit/
I like my Airs legit/ them bootlegs in Chinatown is shit/
So if you rockin’ those I suggest you quit/Yo/
Cos’ this yo’ boy Point/ and I rock the illest pairs/
Mah white on whites so fresh I get stares/
Ebay addict/ we all at it/ I represent KL Air Force cats and that’s it/

Chorus 1x


Bridge
We got ten pairs
Them classic white on whites/ and them black on blacks/ you gotta get em’ too
We got fiddy pairs
Them seasonal Valentines/ Chinese New Year Zodiac signs/
We got a hundred pairs
Quickestrikes/ uh/ Hyperstrikes/ No GR, that ain’t my type/
We got a thousand pairs
Sneaker addict bona fide/ I copped Jay’s 40/40 on the side/

Chorus 2x

Outro (adlib)
Woo/This song’s dedicated to all sneakerheads in the world/
Especially my streething homies/ Choo Ee, Kzzit, Mini,
Y’all know who you are/
Yo we reppin’ Air Force Ones till’ we die/
Uptowns 25th anniversary/
Voyeur Records/ DJ Nesh/ Major R.E. and Point Blanc

Point Blanc singles as Caller Ringtones

For those who called my handpohne recently will hear my 2 singles randomly playing instead of the usual toot, toot. Thats right folks, Ipohmali and KL Lheng Chai are now available to be purchased as caller ringtones by the 3 major telcos.

From what I gather, Celcom ( my telco) seems most user friendly at the moment. I was told that Maxis is revamping their site and Digi's site is just hard to navigate. However, please check back regularly with your telco's website and follow their steps to get the call back tunes. Just try searching for the songs using the song titles or my name. I took the effort to post up the links here. Hopefully interested buyers will take the extra effort and follow the steps to buy the tunes. Here there are:

Celcom

Maxis

Digi

Please show your support and buy those tunes if you like my music so I can continue makin' more hot beats;)thank y'all in advance. Peace.

Out and about

Ok, February is the month I've not been so hard at work blogging. That's because I've been out and about hustlin' and networkin'. So here is my post on what I've been up to lately.

Recently I was at Laundry bar at the Curve, Damansara to catch a special performance by this NY based underground hip hop group called Voices of America. It was a 3 piece hip hop group consisting an emcee, a DJ and a female vocalist. The emcee was the one that stood out most and he was also a solo hip hop underground artiste who goes by the name of Chris Rel. Checkout his music here .I found out later that Chris used to go to school with famous hip hop artiste Saigon (so he claims). For those who are not familiar with Saigon, he is the rapper character under Turtle in HBO's Entourage series. Hip hop cats will know that he is signed by superstar producer Just Blaze under his Baseline Records.

So here I was, excited by the fact that I was 2-3rd degrees of separation from Just Blaze! I passed both Chris and his DJ my single so they could checkout what Malaysian hip hop is like. In the end, Voices of America and Chris Rel seemed kinda down to earth and real and they are really good too. Chris , if you reading this, holla at yo' boy back in NYC:)As usual, the whole usual gang at Laundry was present and DJ Nesh ( one of the best local hip hop/R&B DJ to me) rocked the crowd and we all had a blast.

Another thing that happened that’s kinda funny to mention is that I was invited to give a talk to some youths in Sunday school recently. I mean I'm no role model nor a holy type of guy but I agreed to do it because I thought it was about time I did something for the MAN above in return for all the blessings he gave me. I had to get up really early to make it (after a late night out at Laundry) and luckily I did. Half asleep and a lil' grumpy I managed to give an alrite testimonial to the teens there about the miracles of God in my life. I also managed to be all holier than thou:P and advised them to appreciate the good things in their life and that you can never be too cool for God. I am living proof of that. Special thanks go out to everyone involved at the CKK Subang Catholic Church and Sunday school for having me there. I’m looking forward to giving back to the youths and community. Gotta' balance out all my other sins and bad deeds youknowwhatimsayin?lol

Anyways, that pretty much what I've been up to besides work these few days. Nuff' said, bring on the pics courtesy of my new phone.

I lost my phone!

After 3 years of using my trusty old skool Sony Ericsson T610,(When I bought it, it was THE shit) I lost it! I must confess, I have never lost my handphone before in my life and this is my first time I ever lost anything of this importance. My gf laughed her ass off cos' she is supposed to be the "careless" one but she never lost a phone ever.

My bad. I dropped it somewhere in the Curve. What pains me most is the contacts and numbers that I lost along with it. The phone has been replaced but my contacts and numbers have not. So here is to everyone out there reading this who has got my number, PLEASE SMS ME YOUR NUMBERS( Along with who you are) NOW IF YOU ARE READING THIS! Thank you:)
Holla at ya' boy real quick!

Meanwhile, here are some random pics taken with my new phone while walking around Summit, Subang today....
