ON THE BEAT AND PATH

I have to say that last night's "Raising the Bar #6" was one of the best ones. It was to bring back 90's Hiphop and everyone was supposed to pick their favorite 90's song and bring it back to 2011!!  They covered songs from Wu-tang, Cypress Hill, Nas, Snoop, MC Hammer, Kriss Kross, Biggie, Pras, Big L, 2Pac, Lauryn Hill, Major Stress, KRS-ONE, Black Street...My cover song was SWV - Right Here (Human Nature Mix). Would it be fair to say that I WAS NOT in the right frame of mind...? lol Nonetheless, I think we all had a blast.

Moving on to the next project...
Have you ever heard of ON THE BEAT AND PATH? It's an online travel program. Our friend Steve Northcott from the band The Benchmarks, who is also a stand up comedian, does this to service his passion...Isn't it amazing? Let me ask YOU a question...what have you ever done for yourself lately and what IS your passion?

Check out his trailer! then go check out BORED OF DIRECTIVES to watch ON THE BEAT AND PATH (YouTube it!)

That's Steve for you!

I will be travelling to Phonm Penh, Cambodia next month from the 4th to 10th June to do 1 thing. Well a few other things (which I shall not mention)..but our mission is:

TO RECORD A SONG EACH DAY IN A TOTALLY DIFFERENT ENVIRONMENT FOR 'ON THE BEAT AND PATH'

Imagine:
Water, serenity, greenery, water animals, birds, insects, beautiful people, peace, culture, language. Let me sum it up with one word.

JUNGLE??? 


Yes, I will be residing in a beautiful jungle (in a beautiful villa). Imagine the creativity and inspiration we will get from just being there and how it would influence our creative process....

I went to the website of Bodhi Villa and the first thing I saw was:

"Beware, Bodhi Villa is the Hotel California of Cambodia, you never know when you're going to leave." - Some dude



How can I NOT get excited?
Check out my room! I stole this off their website.
 

I also forgot to mention that Azmyl Yunor & Vandal will ALSO be on this mission together with Gary Blanton (camera man/bassist) and Keyra (our travel photographer) and Steve Northcott ofcourse!!! 

Anyhow, stay tuned and follow me @NadhiraNishaa or us @Onthebeatandpath to see our travel updates!

Peace!!!!

The MoveMint 3rd Anniversary on Friday the 13th May 2011

Whats up from the corner of my apartment!!!


The MoveMint event turned out to be more successful than I thought it would be. There were so many things happening on the night from Rap battles, Beatbox, Live performances by Ras Muhammad , DJ Sarasa, Garuda who came down all the way from Singapore, Tatsuro, Illsteez!! and my homie Karmal finally released his EP "BANGKIT" . Congratulations again! This is the beginning of a loong journey ahead! Big ups bro.


Big ups to my favorite asian reggae ambassador Ras Muhammad who made it alll the way from Jakarta for our event! And he brought with him Daddy T whom he has a collaboration album with 'PROSA TINJU LIMA JARI' -- Go check him out yo! especially if you're a reggae music lover. If you bought his CD or managed to grab the FREE Cd's he was giving out -- I'm on track number 3 or 4? LOL Hillarious -- It's just a voice over ad.

So happy to see a lot of people that came down, and so proud of everyone supporting by paying a small entrace fee. It matters especially if you care about the movement, or any other events and organizers that are providing you a platform to release your inner most passion. So big ups to everyone who holds true to their passion and keeping it real and still trying to keep it alive in this CRAZY world we live in. For shizzles. <--- what does SHIZZLES mean Nadhira??? No idea.

Much respect and love goes out to The MoveMint & Vandal for hosting a wicked anniversary party. Seriously....tell me... who else throws events like these?

THANK YOU SO MUCH TO RENTAK SEJUTA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thank you JUICE for the coverage on the event and basically there's alot of thank you's that need to go out. Much appreciation from The MoveMint team! Thank you to the sponsors! Soundbuzz, Obey, Krooks!  Thank you Milk Club.

The Beat Boxers.
I have mad respect for beat boxers because they are super human.
I think BBoys are super humans too. They do things that not many other humans can do.
Much love and respect.

The Anniversary marks 1 year of my CD release "FROM MALAYSIA WITH LOVE".
I got new music coming your way I just don't wanna say too much right now
because I am super lazy and tired of my shameless promos. LOL. You'll hear it soon enough.

Ras Muhammad & DJ Sarasa
 I am super sorry that you have to tilt your head to see these images because from my small research that I did about a minute ago, Canon camera gives problems when uploading on blogger because blogger runs on HTML and bla bla bla and you CAN'T rotate it and la di da di da...... bla bla bla... So please... use your imagination and hope you don't strain your neck from tilting it sideways to see these photos! It's temporary ok!! New website is about 90% complete.

I'm a fan of The Rebel Scum, always have been. *singing THE LOST CHAMBER*

Wadddup girl. I am loving the zig zags on my head you created. Peace and Love! 
The Graffity battle.

Announcing the winner!

These guys are pro's. They did all this in less than 30 mins I THINK?

THE WINNING ART!
Congrats guys, every body did an amazing job. I'm all teary now. LOL


Gonna end this post with THE REBEL SCUM video



 ENjoyyy!!!

Much love and peace,
Nadhira with an H after the D !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Pls help me get that right. And 'H' is NOT the last letter of my name. Thank you very much and have a lovely day.

Miss Universe Malaysia 2011

I had such an amazing experience doing the Miss Universe Malaysia 2011! It was in a mall!!! hahaha. I did a show with them on Saturday & Sundays!

2 sets with 2 songs in each -- I did 'You Got Me', 'Keep on Moving' & 'Feel That' feat. Vandal !
The staring peoplezz were just walking by...some waved, some smiled and some just stood there.. :)
Thank you so much Miss Universe Malaysia for letting me be part of it...it was fun.

I met miss Andrea Fonseka!! She was The Miss Universe Malaysia 2004. It's interesting that my job allows me to meet other celebrities who've made their mark in their own way...

I'm really sorry it's like this, I can't find the settings to rotate this photo!
lol



Day #1




Day #2





Thanks to ma gyal miss DJ Sarasa all the way from Japan for snapping the photos! See -- I don't have a camera, well I do but I don't like to use it because the quality is not so good, looking for a new camera!!
Maybe a Canon, what do you reckon?

We also met miss Nadine Ann Thomas, winner of Miss Universe Malaysia 2010!!

Same problem!! Hope you can use your imagination... hehe.

So while I was looking for her link -- reading the articles about her, i just found out that she is also a hiphop DJ!! Explains the double ring on her left fingers. Dope. I wanna see her spin. I always told myself that if I ever become a DJ, I'd spin D&B, Dubstep, Reggae. I dig it way tooo much! haha...

Wanna know how you can catch DJ SARASA, MYSELF, and VANDAL 's LIVE performances again?

Come to The MoveMint 3rd anniversary this 13th May 2011!! There will be so many exciting things happening on the day -- check out the flyer to see what will take place...





Peace!!
