Maharani - reissued!

Today was one of the busiest days....and I mean ever. Dari pagi berkejar nak abihkan a couple of stories I was working on. And we're talking full length features, not those short news snippets.

Matilah...

Not to mention my workload selain tuh also included the dateline for my column, which all had to be done and sent in by 3pm sebab nak rush lak gi assignment. Merasalah kelam kabut segalanya.

Still, managed to settle everything just fine, and made it for the launch of Nikki's Maharani repackaged just in time. Kudos to Artistes United Records for the small and cosy event which understandably much of the credit went to Vernon and also Azmie. To make it short and sweet, for those yang belum beli album Nikki, here's the info on the reissue of the album yang kini ada bonus single Drama, sekali ngan dua music videos which is for Caramu featuring Zahid and also Imaginasil Collector's item tuh.

Maharani is now on sale for RM15.90 for a cassette and RM29.90 tuk CD.

I recommend CD (masih ada ek yang beli kaset?) because not only it features all the tracks from the album, tapi also ada sebelas remix baru (I love the new mix of Caramu), minus one dan of course the music video and lagu Drama.

Executive producer credits go to Ning, and producers are Vernon and Michael Ang.
Ni track listing for the CD of the album.

So tunggu apa lagi? And by the way, sapa nak help promote the release of the album, here's a banner that you guys can put up. Kalau korang nak link directly the URL of the image above pun no hal. Spread it far and wide (lucah jer bunyinya kan?)

Anyhoo...aku ada wat video performance Nikki time event tuh, tapi seperti biasa aku masih lom siap. Bertimbun keja punya pasal nanti aku letak ler ek.

Lagikpun aku masih utang video Diya kuar ari tuh lagik kan...so tunggu nanti aku letak ler semua sekali. Isnon lak kena interview yang terkeluar agik...so aku rasa aku letak dua video sekali gus kot ler next week ek.

Plus Nikki punya kira tiga sekali la. Nampaknya posting video clip ler akan datang kang.
Anyways the poolside loungy event besh sebab ramai kawan hadir.

Ada special guest agik dari nun jauh dari pantai timur in Mimirinie seorang blogger yang memang minat Ning mai skali nak meriahkan majlis. Tuk sapa yang tak penah tengok rupa dia...tu dia kat sebelah ni. Merasalah carut plastic bag Mydin (you either understand it or not).

Also there was si Juan, Ajami, Kash and Judd.

Then of course ada abang Badand Shonny yang wakilkan f-ter-six Records, syarikat pengurusan dan rakaman yang Diddy bernaung skang. Dua orang bloggers in Budiey dan sultanmuzaffar lak tak dapat hadirkan diri kerana tugas.

Didn't take much pics sebab sibuk nak wat video, tapi last last battery laptop lak low malas nak punggah semua adapter kuar nak charge kan balik, so ended up with only a few fuzzy pics with my Nokia (kena abihkan proposal cepat tuk dapatkan phone baru yang ditaja nih)

So hope you guys maapan ek sebab setakat nih jer pic yang mampu aku amik. These are of the bloggers yang hadirkan diri though gelap je semacam pic ni (ni mesti kes tak diterima cahaya - matilah aku kena maki pasnih!)

Pas abih semua, dah semua da puas menganyam ketupat (gosip wat dosa lebih), we all decided to make a move for KLCC. Sebenarnya au tak plan nak ke mana pun cuma nak gi jalan ngan Mimi sebab bukan slalu dia turun KL.

Tapi atas ajak Ning, yang sekali ngan Yanie as well abang Bad dan Shonny as well..joined them for the M.A.C Spring collection launch themed 'Barbie Loves M.A.C' kat concourse Suria KLCC.

Jam sepanjang jalan....but in the end sampai je tengok..pergh!!! Meriah ok!

Gawd...a lot of friends were there kalangan cosmetic industry....and member artis pun ramai. Nita, Jac, Syafinaz, Nabila, Farahdhiya, Betty Banafe, Sheila Rusly, Sharifah Shahirah...

I spent most of the time with Nabila and a little more with Jac, Faradhiya and Syafinaz sebab kami make a beeline for the photo booth syok sendiri amik pics free. Had so much fun, again forgot to take more pics...so these are the few yang aku leh kongsi.

Ning with Jac and Yanie. Then with Syafinaz. Oops..sorry Faradhiya gambo candid...wat muka tuh! Heh!!

Pada yang tanya mana ulasan Diarrhea...sori ler....missed it again. No regrets though because it was a fun night. After we finished (yeay! dapat M.A.C Pro card...20% off M.A.C products pasni!) gi melantak supper with some friends and called it a night. More tomorrow...

Reading!

Ok, aku tahu I haven't been updating my blog, tapi aku memang malas nak make any entries. Faham sajalah...dahlah aku tengah cuti (matilah ko fiebie! Ni dah settle the Glass House project Nikki, terus *woohoo!!!* enjoy the holidays lor.

Anyway, just to recap the last few days first, am extremely busy with. Yerlah...on Thursday ingat nak ke Singapore tuk wat some last minute Christmas shopping because aku tau where to get the best bargains there, which is hell of a lot cheaper and more cool than here.

Tapi last minute takde tiket bus available malas terus aku...putus asa. No Christmas gifts from abroad lor...have to do my part for the Malaysian economy by offering myself up to the slaughter of local retailers with supposed discounts yang tak semana...

But one proud achievement I have to boast of is kebelakangan ni, sempat ler aku nak keep up to my reading habit which has been virtually non-existent in my business. Have read this Roald Dahl compilation of short stories halfway...tapi apa pun...into the third book from Sophie Kinsella.

The 'shopaholic' series (The Secret World of a Shopaholic, Shopaholic Abroad and Shopaholic Ties The Knot) is really good (book three aku da halfway), so kalao you've heard of the Adrian Mole series, you really should get this cause it's simply hilarious!

It's so me...cause it's about this character yang obsessed with shopping...mampus ler aku mengidam ler nak go brand hogging cam dia. This book is like the Harry Potter series for anyone who can't resist a good bargain or a good sale!

Aku been neglecting to read for some time now...and the fever to start back to a habit aku came ever since aku baca the December issue of The Rolling Stones, and read that Madonna carries a book everywhere (she hates wasting time, and reading is the most beneficial way to kill time - she even drags one along into a disco just in case) aku da psyche myself up to be more prepared to more wisely spend my time.

So this year, I'm up three books (I'll be done with the third book by tomorrow and continue with the Roald Dahl one...) which makes it four, plus two Amy Tan ones (The Hundred Secret Senses and The Bonesetter's Daughter) to complete her series (saw a new one from Amy in MPH yesterday...have to get it!). Plus the autobiography from Tim Allen, Don't Stand Too Close To A Naked Man (absolutely hilarious!!! - one of the funniest books I've read in a long time), which brings my grand total of at least six books (seven if I can finish the Roald Dahl in time) in 2005. Not good...but not too bad...and that's not even including some favourite titles I've been rereading (as well as the books which are hardly credible to mention as reading material).

Seriously...think it's not too bad (waddaya think?) I read somewhere the average number of books read by Malaysians in a year is two, so I've more than done my share (boleh?) Ok, back to updating my entries...I know a lot of updates on The Glass House Project - iaitu pelancaran album Nikki, Maharani, which lasted three days.

Tapi kalau korang baca ler dalam blog beberapa geng Bloggers United yang turut terlibat menyumbang masa untuk menjayakan projek ini, iaitu sultanmuzaffar dan elkapitan, you would have gotten an idea of what it was all about and how it went. Jangan lupa usha blog Abang Bad gak because dia pun ada updates sikit pasal tu.

It was absolutely fantastic, and I think these pictures prove how amazing it was. All of us stayed at Bukit Bintang for three days, and Bintang Walk was our home (not literally lah sebab kami dok JW Marriot - cuma jarang ada peluang tidur). For those yang tatau The Glass House Project tu apa (where the flying freak have you been), on Friday, December 18th, Nikki entered her glass house located in the heart of Bukit Bintang, the busy shopping district of Kuala Lumpur.

So dalam tu, dia sibuk vocal training ngan mentor dan executive producer album dia, Ning Baizura, and also vocal trainer dia Hazami as well as Linda Jasmine tuk prepare for the mini showcase pada hujung tiga hari tu.

Celah-celah tu, ramai artis yang lawat dia untuk memberi sokongan...dan juga nasihat untuk berjaya dalam industri muzik. Dari keluarga Akademi Fantasia, tamu-tamu Nikki termasuk Zahid, Mawi, Farah (tatau ke mana gambar-gambar Farah...kena cari!), Marsha dan Kaer.

Pastu ada gak Jac, Nasha Aziz dan Afdlin Shauki yang wat kunjungan mengejut. Tu lum kira semua penyampai era yang mai memberikan sokongan tak terhingga iaitu Rustam, Nana, Kieran, Nila, Farah, Linda...erm sapa lagi ah....Geng Bloggers United pun hampir semua ada in full force (leh kira glamer lah kan)

Ok...here are a couple of photos of who was there...ni tak comprehensive...keep checking [klubbkidd's rave] - the fotopages for more and more pictures added...slowly (part ni kena tambah takut kena maki sebab lambat sangat update).

Ok...don't forget ler lawat blog kengkawan Bloggers United yang da link kat atas tu, sebab aku letih nak update bebanyak...(jangan marah) But it was a great experience...and I was glad it was for Nikki, one of the most promising new artistes in our country...and together with a team of people who I can consider friends and family...

Apapun, aku ada dua pic nak share ni. Yang aku rasa very the meaningful. First of all this one...this is the first tamu yang datang sejurus Nikki masuk je kerumah kaca. Apa lagi, alang-alang dedua beradik aku kan...so relax tak kekok ler. Lagipun ni bukan kali pertama mereka berjumpa pun...Zahid ada rakam featuring spot on one song dalam Maharani (dengar Urban di era).

So...for being the first guest (and for me...one of my favourite!)....thank you so much Zahid!!! Thank you ler pada semua yang mai sekali gak ler....I mean...all of you were so nice to visit Nikki...and not just like Nasha yang bak buah tangan hamper cekelat yang giant...siap bak teddy bear pink (favourite colour si Nikki tu) yang giant gak...but also membawa hadiah yang paling istimewa dan berharga...iaitu nasihat dan tunjuk ajar.

Terharu aku...kawan-kawan semua mai support....By the way...kalau nak tau...tengok celah pintu tu...enter frame pic di bawah tu si abang Badrul ler...

Ok...the next photo aku nak share ni...gambar Mawi. Bukan apa...sebelum projek ni jalan, dan ada promo semua, ada peminat Mawi yang serang Nikki. Aku diberitahu dalam forum semua, ada je yang hentam Nikki, angkara para fanatik (yer...yang cam pakai nickname pengkid tu).

Lantak ler ko Dol kalao ko tak suka. Tapi Mawi sendiri rilek je ngan si Nikki nak bagi nasihat, ko dengki ngan budak ni sebab tak kena ajak lunch skali ke? Lum agi...masa da siap era da announce Mawi akan lunch bersama Nikki...ada lak sebarkan benda tu tak jadi...yang si Mawi 12.30 sehingga 2.30 ada kat Dewan Felda. Apa lah nak naya tanak orang mai tengok...ehek!

Mawi sendiri gelak je...apapun...tima kasih daun keladi dari pihak Nikki tuk Mawi kerana menghabiskan masa dari lebih kurang 12.45 sehingga dia bergerak dekat kul 3pm (singgah kedai Linda Onn sat). Apapun, ni bukti sokongan album memasing. Ni time meka bertukar album...Mawi sign Yang Tercinta tuk Nikki...dan Nikki autograph kan Maharani tuk Mawi. Yang penting bagi thumbs up tu! So kalau ada yang nak kutuk sebab Mawi ok ngan Nikki...lantak ler korang...memang lebih kuah dari sudu...

So anyway...jangan lupa to drop by Nikki's Official Site and if you want to get the CD of Maharani online, check out Project : Maharani.

Moving on...Christmas is going to be so great, even though I wish I was celebrating kat Sabah. Mana taknya....Nikki kat Sabah...aku call Felix dia da pun tengah prepare nak celebrate Christmas at home there too. Marsha pun SMS aku wish da...miss them lak.

But I'm glad this year aku (walaupun habiskan bonus dua bulan) aku da settle manyak benda. Masuk 2006 ni memang kewangan way better than sebelum-sebelum ni. Keta dah renew road tax dan insurance (tinggal nak repair sana sini - sapa nak sponsor!). Pastu bebanyak yang tinggal aku shopping sakan ler. Got my mom this Clarins set....new shoes and clothes. Just sakit hati tak sempat gi SIngapore nak beli perfume my Mom punya favourite (Boucheron - Jaipur).

Takpe lah...bagi cash to her and my papa pun dah rasa sedap sikit...

Papa aku punya present lak satu hal...nasib baik this year my sis is handling that department. Rilek sikit aku takyah pecah pala nak cari! So esok...(alamak! berapa jam lagi..sah tak tidur) kena lari keluar and buy present my sis as well as her boyfriend...as well as some friends yang aku lum settle lagi.

My score card for this year - da dua hadiah da setakat ni aku dapat, a cool diary (more like book spoof of a diary and planner) and calendar dari Vern and gorgeous ear studs from Badrul (ever the sweetie!)

Ok lah..walaupun tak seberapa entry ni, aku harap ler mengubat rindu korang ek (ada ke yang rindu) entry-entry aku. To everyone (not just those celebrating)....have a merry Christmas and God bless. Sapa nak shopping last minute esok jom! Call aku!!!

So to everyone...again...here's wishing you a hearty merry Christmas...remember the reason for the season!!! (and my Christmas presents!!)

Here it comes...

First of all...mintak maap ler bebanyak to all of you. I am so sorry that I haven't been updating my blog as promised.Tapi like I said...walaupun 'cuti' kerja sebulan, tapi kerja tetap ada. Not to mention preparations for Nikki's album launch. Gempak memang gempak...tapi kerja nak buat tuh..aduh...pening wo!

Anyway - ni nak quick recap. Let me see...takyah ler sangat kan aku gloss over Marsha punya birthday (lengthy sikit ler) as aku pasti ramai member bloggers anggota Bloggers United yang lain cam mama sentap, mama bosan dan mama comel ada tulis gak pasal menda tu.

I thought it was fun and kinda great, but despite the intimacy of the crowd numbers, it was hard to get cosy ngan everyone spread into three separate rooms (and the smoking terrace).

Apapun, aku terpaksa belah cepat sebab ngantuk! (Batman ke tak pun kena cukupkan tidur...beauty sleep ma!)

Anyways, aku akan update entry ni ASAP with lots of pictures. But just thought I'd do a short entry to let you guys know.

Nikki will be entering a glass house located in the middle of Jalan Bukit Bintang and staying there untuk tiga hari sebagai sebahagian dari event album launch nya.

Tu pun nanti I go into further details, but anyway, ni tetamu yang confirm sepanjang Jumaat, Sabtu dan Ahad dia akan berada kat dalam rumah baru dia tu. Dari segi persiapan, vocal training will be given (dalam the glass house itself) by Ning Baizura and Hazami while Linda Jasmine akan training choreography.

Artis-artis yang dah confirm akan lawat Nikki termasuk (pada hari Jumaat) Zahid (4pm), Jac (4.30pm), dan Hazami (5pm) dan juga (pada hari Sabtu) Mawi (1pm - makan tengahari dalam The Glass House), dan Nasha Aziz (4.30pm).

Kunjungan mereka adalah bertujuan untuk berkongsi pengalaman dan nasihat serta untuk memeriahkan Nikki's stay sebagai rakan artis, so takyah ler spekulasi nak tumpang glamer ke apa pada mereka yang tak suka tu. Semua artis yang setuju tu nak mengunjungi Nikki (ramai lagi akan confirm) kerana mereka masing-masing mempunyai nasihat dari pengalaman mereka untuk berkongsi dengan Nikki.

Esok aku lebih 'story' kan ler ek. Nak tidur. Full day tomorrow. More pictures too! Tapi apapun, I hope korang drop by and lend some support! It's going to be three full days of fun.
By the way - sesiapa yang beli album Maharani pada hari tu (harga sama-RM29.90 untuk CD berkembar), RM5 dari hasil jualan goes towards SPCA, so rajin-rajin ler ek sapa yang selama ni kata tak jumpa album tu.

Project:Maharani

Short update je tuk sekarang.

Kalau masih ingat dulu ramai bloggers promote usaha Afdlin Shauki on the sale of his album, here's another project yang lebih kurang sama.

Introducing, Project:Maharani!

The project adalah untuk menjual album Nikki, bertajuk Maharani. Kalau anda masih tak tahu (aiyo!where has YOU been?!), the album berharga RM29.90 and is a double CD album yang contains a total of 25 tracks - Disc 1 the actual album with 12 songs and one hidden bonus track, Disc 2 with another 12 tracks comprising remixes and minus ones.

Scroll ler below for my previous postings tuk find more about the album or surf Nikki's official site for more info.

Apapun, keistimewaan projek ni is...bukan je menyenangkan anda mendapat CD Nikki, but the album Maharani you will be getting will be personally AUTOGRAPHED!

By the way - updates...this Saturday, the first single, Pinta, hasil tulisan Hazami dan Imran will hit era.fm!!! Ada surprise pasal penglibatan stesen radio No. 1 negara....but da panjang da posting aku yang sepatutnya pendek ni...so next time ler.

Apapun...remember...even if you don't buy a CD from Project:Maharani, do support the site by placing the banner links on your site or blog.

Anticipation

Tengah nak wat posting ni, for some fishing reason, blogdrive naik psycho and I lost my entry.
So what happened? I had to rewrite again everything...malas. Too lazy to retype a tediously long entry, so setakat mana aku leh je lah ni.

Since Saturday I was plagued by a slight fever, cough, cold...the works complete with a runnynose and all (can't take the amount of phlegm!)

Anyway, ok sikit (though the phlegm is still horrible...I'm ozzing bucket loads by the minutes).
Amik ubat pun cam takde affect pun...not so much cause my body seems immune to Panadol (you have to love the Solubles...suka tengok dia dissolve)...but I think more because this was one of the spells where I just had to weather. Ye lah...kekadang sakit yang long lasting and susah nak sembuh...kekadang yang ringan-ringan saja, which is gone with a flash.

This was a bubbling one...where it was there, never got worse...but yet at the same time, never got better.

So, Monday tahan...masuk keja. Selasa da tak tahan, called in sick. Wednesday was off too, and Thursday (but masuk sebab nak masukkan column)

Dalam amik cuti sakit, Tuesday night aku kena gak haul ass to go to Azwan Ali's open house. Ye lah. orang dah jemput....

So lebih dua jam ler teperangkap in the jam from Klang to Ukays Perdana. Dengan hujan lebat and all...traffic was so fishing bad!

Dahlah aku tak tau jalan...gamble punya gamble main redah...kejap je da jumpa.
Sampai...terus tak nyesal dok lelama. Sempat ler jumpa beberapa orang yang da lama tak meet up.

First person I bumped into was Maya Karin, tapi sempat hi hi bye bye je sebab dia da nak balik. Yelah orang da dok lama kita baru nak sampai. Another person on the way back was Sarah Raisuddin. Tambah comel dia tu...

But the shrieking began masa baru nak settle down je....si Azizi, Fitri, Edlin, Zarina dan Mas muncul. Rupanya meka tengah sibuk tour rumah...baru sampai gak tuh.

So sat down ler gossiped. Sadly enough I had to rush off after a while sebab ada meeting lain...tak sempat jumpa Umie Aida yang on the way.
Sempat ler take a few pic...teringat last minute sebenarnya...

My fave pic yang first tu of si Edlin tengah suap Zarina sambil si Mas posing ngan ayam dia...lawak punya pose ler meka ni.





Moving on...I don't have really much to post. Mana taknya...dok rumah je kerja. Ingat dalam demam tu nak enjoy gi tengok wayang, talipon pun talipon...nak booking tiket ke Harry Potter asik booking penuh. Mangkuk jamban punya TGV dan GSC. Malas lak nak gi sana nak beratur...tunggu subside sikit crowd yang gi tengok... But for those of you who have been waiting...here's the deal on Nikki.

Her album will be out Isnin ni!!!

Cassettes will be RM15.90....biasa je. Tapi cita CD dia yang besh! It will be RM29.90 for a double CD!!!

Titled Maharani, Disc 1 will feature the album yang ada 12 lagu (semua baru ek!) Disc 2 lak will feature another 12 tracks, which is remixes dan minus one. Yang pentingnya....hah! Ada hidden track as a an added bonus (rugi kalao tak dengar hidden track dalam CD tu,..ada surprise!)

That makes it 25 tracks for RM29.90!

Later today ada pre-listening album tuk para media...so it'll be great to finally have the whole album unveilved before the album is available on Monday.

Aku percaya single pertama bertajuk Pinta, yang ditulis oleh Hazami dengan lirik dari Imran.

Dengar-dengar, era.fm akan memulakan exclusive play of the song before any radio station...Banyak aku korek pasal proses recording of the album and all, so for read on. Nikki ni sekarang anak didik Ning Baizura. Aku reveal more info as they inform tomorrow of the technical details.

What I do know so far is that when she was taken under Ning's wing, immediately she was ushered for vocal training.

Bukan sebarangan lak yang menjadi mentor dia. Sebagai permulaan...Siti Chairani herself handle vocal lessons. Siti being the Indonesian diva responsible for Ning, Syafinaz and Siti Hajar.

And then pastu, Nikki is now continuing vocal sessions with Ning herself as well as Hazami.

Ni gambar-gambar dari training sessions ngan Siti beberapa bulan lalu yang aku baru dapat dari handphone kawan as well as shot dari practise ngan Ning di studio.

By the way...pada sesapa yang tak pernah tengok Siti Chairani...dia yang dok kat piano tu tengah guide Nikki. Abih kena dera si Nikki ni rupanya...posture pun kena maintain betul masa nyanyi!!!

Enjoy the pics guys...aku akan upload some more kalau aku dapat amik pics later at the pre-listening session.

By the way...before I leave you guys...aku diberitahu, dia da ada website. So time to play a little game...untuk sesapa yang dapat cari url website dia (which will be launched open on Saturday tak silap aku) gets a free CD delivered to them! First to leave the answer (korang pepandai ler surf carikkan) kat Comments area wins! Tapi kena laa secepat mungkin sebelum Sabtu...so good luck and surf like you've never surfed before!

I will be posting authorised samples of the songs in the radio.blog soon...so look out for that.

r e l a x ! ! !

Lepas segala kekusutan yang berlaku beberapa hari ini, not helped by my hectic schedule since Monday - I am so glad everything's over!

Yeah!

Kerja bertimbun lum agi berukurangan buat at least datelines semua da aku overcome!
From now until tomorrow...at least ada ler masa off sikit.

Sayang though sebab hari ini kena masul lagi nak wat kerja atas last minute request banyak lak rumah terbuka tak dapat aku gi (tak tahulah kalau sebelah malam sempat)

Dahlah tak sempat gi tengok abang Wan Maestro naik pelamin (akhirnya gak ek!) walaupun Marsha dan Ekin pergi sekali. Aduh...

And then janji Akma nak gi rumah terbuka dia tak sempat lak. Tu tak termasuk invitation dua lagi open house dari kak Maznah as well as kak Jezz.

Sorry guys...I really am. After today ok ler sikit!

Anyway - ni update sikit (sebenarnya basi...aku da bagitau sebelum ni kot). Nikki's album will be out on Nov 28, kira in just over a week.

Aku tak dapat shot album apa...tapi apapun, ni korang leh have a look at what the back cover at least will look like! (tengok belakang wat pe Vernon...bagilah depan punya cover)

Aku dapat ler details about the album tapi takleh cita agik sebab under wraps still...so pepandai ler ek tunggu update aku.

Apapun...aku tengah kebulur ni...malas nak update panjang-panjang...guys...by the way...aku nak tukar lagu kat radio.blog sebab mood Raya pun cam da kureng (walaupun still in bulan Syawal) so...nak tanya korang apa lagu korang nak mintak...tak janji akan tunai...tapi kalau ok...aku tunaikan je...
