Dialah pasangan

Pengaruh kelembutan

Bimbanglah dengan bimbingan

Cetusan membahagiakan

Kau wanita terbilang

Tabah cekal bertandang

Kerna kau lahirlah penerus jasa

Kau solehah...... bahkan

Nyawa kau pertaruhkan

Agar

Nur iman terpelihara

Rancangan realiti TV terbaru "Solehah" akan ke udara bermula 23 September 2011, saluran Astro 114.

Semasa entri ini di tulis, saya telah bersetuju untuk menyanyi secara live diiringi full band untuk majlis pelancaran atau episod pertama 'Solehah'.... insyallah!

YES! We Did It.

Assalamualaikum.

Alhamdulilah, selesai dah majlis pelancaran MRT. Me - tentunya dengan sekali lagi tugas mencabar untuk menyanyikan lagu tema bagi projek ni rasa cukup lega dengan selesainya majlis tersebut.

Kat belakang pentas and even kat holding room pun, me and Jaclyn Victor was so nervous and we can say separuh panic sebab masing-masing masih lagi tak lancar dengan lirik, sampai last minutes. But it was great to work together with Jac. (interesting fact about Jac, she own quite a number of motorcycles and she came to KLCC today by riding her mom's vespa!)

This is the second time me singing at the launch event after Exora.

What happened on stage? Everything went well. When I steeped out from the giant clock, I seen GMD Prasarana, Shahril Mokhtar gave me a big smile (as he was the one who took me in to SPAD). Then I see datuk Wan Shihab, clapping and telling everyone beside him - "he is one of us!".

Then surely i saw YAB PM watching me singing my first line. And Tan Sri Syed Hamid Albar was talking to him, maybe telling PM that I work for SPAD (just a wild guess).

Everything went well even thou during music break, i was not so sure what to do beside switching position with Jac. Then second part of the after chorus, I got one word wrong which later my wife text me asking about that. And she said someone at home who is watching live on RTM TV1 heard the mistake. Harap tak obvious sangat lah...

Anyway... We did it! Enjoy the video below

SOLEHAH FOR TV AL-HIJRAH

Salam all,

I'm currently working on another musical project with Farihin Fatah. This time, I'm doing a theme song for a programme called Solehah for TV Al-Hijrah.

According to Farihin, Solehah will be a new reality TV show which adopting Imam Muda's concept, but looking for muslim ladies who have the highest knowledge in Islam. Should be interesting. And the theme song....... it is interesting.

The hardest part of doing this song is on how to inject the right feel. I have to really control my feel, so not to soft or not to hard. This song is about describing a perfect muslim woman.

At this point of time...... while writing this blog, i'm thinking of pulling out from this project. But I just can't... because of Farihin Fatah. I'll explain to you why later.

MARATHON PLAN

KL Marathon just over, yesterday. Quite a number of my friends, ex-colleagues participated in this year event.

This make me think of a plan, to participate and finish - maybe half-marathon (10KM) in next year KL Marathon. I did registered my participation a few years back but I was unable to run because of some thing cropped-up last minute.

Got to train and buckle up till next year. Badri Ibrahim can do it lah!

MENUJU DESTINASI

Assalamualaikum....

My last update was about 5 months ago. Quite a while eh...

Anyway, about my last post. The last project was left hanging. Why? Because the agency who pay me and Atilia to sing the 'Tandas Bersih' song didn't get the project. So that song is still in Yassin and Farihin's safekeeping, maybe for next project.

But in this entry, I like to share that I'm working on another project. Another theme song which I'll be singing with a great singer, Jaclyn Victor (Champion Malaysian Idol Season 1). Titled 'Menuju Destinasi', this song will be the theme song for the biggest infrastructure project ever in Malaysia, My Rapid Transit (MRT) project.

First cut of recording was done yesterday. Song writen by Ramli of Mohram and sound engineered by Yassin. I wanted to share the song here but it is yet to be approved. So tak boleh lagi lah... sabor!

BTW, I like to share this. When Ramli Mohram called to tell me that he want me to sing the song, he thought that I'm still working for PROTON. He didn't know that I'm no longer with PROTON and now working for the Commission who is in-charge of MRT project! And here I am, sing for my employer.... again!

KEMBALI KE STUDIO - SELEPAS 1 TAHUN

Assalamualaikum semua....

AJL 25 baru lepas 3 hari lepas. Kalau nak cerita pasal AJL memang berkajang-kajang lah blog ni nanti. Jadi, tak payah nak sibuk pasal hal orang lah....

Apa yang saya tulis kat sini kali ni? Semalam saya berpeluang untuk record satu lagu duet dengan 'ATILIA HARON'! Yes..... the Atilia Haron yang sora memang best, sedap sangat tu.

Lagu digubah oleh award winning composers/producers - Farihin Fatah dan Yassin. Kalau nak tau lagu apa... kena tunggu lah... :)

Kitorang record dekat studio Yassin, Kota Damansara. Start record pukul 9.30 malam sampai 11.00 malam. And it was fun to work with bunch of professionals. Looking forward for another project with them.

NAK KE MANA KITA?

Assalamualaikum.....

Sebenarnya saya dah update blog ni 2-3 minggu yang lepas, announcing that I'll be involve dalam program Nak Ke Mana Kita? yang akan disiarkan di stesyen TV yang baru dilancarkan semalam, TV AlHijrah.

It was a great honour for me to get a chance to host a TV program. And more, doing a travelogue.... it has been my dream. Get to travel which all paid for (and get paid), what else can I ask for. Cuma sekarang weekend dah tak boleh nak spend time dengan family, especially with wifey and my 6 months old Heidi.

Nak Ke Mana Kita? ni satu rancangan yang bukan setakat memperlihatkan keindahan tempat-tempat di Malaysia malah juga mendekati penduduk di sekitar kawasan yang dilawati. Senang cerita, kalau anda berminat nak kenal lebih dekat tentang masyarakat dan aktiviti penduduk di Malaysia, Nak Ke Mana Kita? ada jawapannya.

Macam gambar kat atas ni, saya kena turun ke laut dalam bersama-sama 2 nelayan bagi merasai jerih perit hidup sebagai nelayan. Selalunya kita cuma ke pasar, beli ikan, masak lepas tu cubit2 ikan dan makan. Rasa kita nak bersyukur dan berterima kasih pada orang yang bersusah payah menaikan ikan dari laut tu mungkin ada, tapi kurang sangat. Jadi, kalau anda tonton NKMK barulah kita tau betapa susahnya kerja sebagai nelayan.

Jangan lupa tonton NKMK setiap Ahad jam 2.30 petang di TV AlHijrah. NKMK akan bersiaran sebanyak 13 episod bermula Ahad ini, 12 Disember 2010.
