Sleeq & Magic Potion Production label X Built from Skratch: Partnership

Due to some sudden unforeseen “creative differences” in management, Sleeq is branching out from Labels of Love and is currently indie-run by their own production/record label Magic Potions with Built from Skratch serving as its booking & management advisory (ad-hoc basis).

Sleeq would like to thank all their fans for their undying support & music as well as their constant attendance to each & every of their showcase. Without the fans and appreciation from music lovers, Sleeq would not be where they are today. From opening for Kris Dayanti, opening up for Rihanna & Black Eye Peas as well as having their album be purchased and enjoyed across Singapore, Malaysia & Indonesia. Sleeq would like to thank each & everyone of you for sticking with them through the good & bad times and through the joy & pain. Syariff will now officially undertake the business development of Sleeq’s music endeavors whereas Aliff would be in-charge of production & music development whereas Skratch will take up the ad-hoc role of booking agent.

Thank You and lets built from skratch good music together with us.

Dawn of the Dead: The Year in Turntablism & DJ BATTLE 2008

DJ BATTLES are similar to an Air Guitar Contest this year. Seems exciting, alot of WHOO-HA but in reality nothing but gimmicks smoke & mirrors to the general audience.

Is it about skills or P.R skills that Skratch DJs are being judge these days? Or is it how many friends you have on the judging panel?

Judging from the bored patrons and boo-ing from the recent skratch session in Singapore as well as the self-proclaim Platform for DJ Battle & Turntablism, officialy the interest in not there and it is no longer the platform with viral marketing being so easily available & hustle more important.

It is official, DJ BATTLES are DEAD for this year.

DJ OF THE YEAR:

Is there any I should take note of? Doubt it.

Yawn

Review: Lil Wayne ~ The Carter 3

If the power of speculation and suggestion works hand in hand together for a project, you would have a successful career like Lil Wayne. The self -proclaimed “GREATEST RAPPER ALIVE” has his image plastered out in whatever magazine available on the market from Blender, Vibe, Source, XXL and the most important one of them all, Rolling Stones.

Review: Usher ~ Here I Stand

One thing can be said about Usher Raymond, he is still a leading R&B heartthrob and consistent singer delivering his 6th studio album, “Here I stand”.

Game ~ Pain All – Star Remix

With high anticipation for The Game’s third album vs G-unit’s Terminate on Sight, which is both rumoured to drop on the same day to spark an all-out sales war, The Game aka Chuck Taylor has been hard at work by releasing an all-star remix for Pain featuring a cast of interesting artiste such as Queen Latifah, Bun B and former G-unit member Young Buck. Thus following a trend which he and Nas started, on “The Doctor’s Advocate” and “Hip-Hop is Dead”, by inviting an assorted of artiste to be featured on the 1st lead up single’s remix.

Nonetheless, it is the Piff.
