SUNBURST 2008 Photos

Okay so it rained at the beginning but people still came and were in good spirits. Joe's set started at 730pm, half hour later than scheduled. We have to admit that the sound wasn't great. We were told that the technicians were having problems as the system wasn't very stable at the time. What a shame too especially when the band started playing the "Showtime" which was full of energy but didn't quite made the impact we all wanted to see when all the mics for the emcees weren't working properly etc! Backup singers also faced the same problem throughout the set and because of that there was a lot of movement on the like switching of mics etc. Regardless, despite the sound issues, the show was good and we're so proud of Joe.

Big thanks to the hip hop fans who came to watch the show, those especially out in the front who showed so much love, appreciaion and support! To Joe's fans, friends and family....thank youuuu!!! Opening for the Roots was such and honour and thank you Sunburst KL '08 for inviting Joe and Kartel to be part of the event.

Joe's set was a showcase of Malaysian Hip Hop talent from Malaysia's number one DJ, T-Bone (Kartel Hitmen) on the decks accompanied by DJ Biggie (Kartel Hitmen) and DJ Iman to Phlowtron's Poi and Crazy Carleed, Reefa, KLG Sqwad and Terry Lee (Urban Exchange) who made up an impressive featured artistes line-up. Thanks also to the B-boys led by Azmi with a special addition of So You Think You Can Dance (Season 1)'s Alam. The best thing of this "showcase" had to be the fact that three blood brothers were on stage performing together. For those of you who don't know this about Joe, he has two other brothers who are also musicians in their own right. Ashraf is in a band called Sakti (Kartel Records) and Iman aka DJ Iman is a turntablist. For the showcase however, Ashraf supported Joe by being part of the backing vocals and was featured during 'Mariposa' while Iman played alongside DJ T-Bone and DJ Biggie and was featured at the beginning of the set.

Here are some pictures, taken by us or friends who sent us copies! Thank you! Enjoy!

Joe later came to check out the set-up. He basically worked with The Kartel crew while he was in tour in China last month to get everything organised for the show. No easy task considering that a band was involved.

PUSH Skateshop

One of Joe's friends Ayee just opened his very own skate store called PUSH , "Push atau Mati" right here in Malaysia. The launch was last Saturday (18 Jan 08) late afternoon but Joe could only make it at night. Incidentally Sakti, (Joe's other brother, Ahsraf's band) performed at the launch alongside OAG!

PUSH is actually in Shah Alam so for all skate enthuthiasts, this is definitely one store to hunt down and go to! Our first impression of PUSH was that the store looked very much like the skate stores you'd find in Bangkok, Thailand which is a good thing! Clean lines, spacious but personal enough to make one feel welcomed! Products are displayed and lined up against white walls, with no distractions for the wandering eye. On sale are a wide range of boards, skate tees (local and international brands), sneakers, accessories like the KL Caps :) and even some pretty cool dresses and tees for the ladies! But what's the best kept secret in PUSH right now? It's got to be the Supra's that Ayee has lovingly displayed in the front of his store. Only two stores carry these babies and PUSH is one of them!

Ayee with his KL cap/t-shirt display. Nice one!

The simple but stylish set-up will keep them coming for more.

Sneaker pimp Joe spent most his time at the shoe rack.


The President approves


These are the SUPRAs that must be BOUGHT!

Congratulations Ayee!
