We know this might be a lil late, but we've both been busy munching on em murukus and mutton curry...it's easy to get distracted.
Anyhoo, have a safe one, whether you Hindu or not. Let the light shine through, ya dig? =)

Oh and here's our lil thing thing we did did.
This post is a salute to a Malaysian emcee that was part of duo that changed the face of Hiphop in this region.
Both emcees from TooPhat have ventured into their respective solo projects; and here is Malique's. Being in hiatus for quite awhile, it's no surprise how it has become one of the most highly anticipated Hiphop album this year.
Both Naqib and I have had the privilege to catch Malique in his full form during the making of this album and I have to say the final product is nothing short of a classic - exceeding our very high expectations (see what happens when you get the right people in the right mix?)
Malique's infamous perfectionist ways is evident in the quality of this indie effort(Qarma Records) and it's apparent upon unfolding the album sleeve itself (what can i say? i appreciate good meticulous visual works).
Musically, both discs speaks volumes. From a song for everyone, to a song best cherished alone, 'OK' the album is like a buffet of insights and stories. I believe the album will be winning over many non-Hiphop listeners and even influence and sprout a new generation of local emcees.
On a personal level, I'll keep it short - shit's inspirational.
Go get yours.
