But it was a good experience… in each which I was playing a different role.

In the KAPPA X YOHO Awards, I was founder of SMG - I managed to receive 2 awards for my 7 month old label SMG, presented to me by Endo of Devilock! Thanks Endo, looks like we have alot more coming up for us than just the first DVLK x SMG collabo!

In the Global Chinese Music Awards, as a singer / songwriter, I had the honor to be presented with the following:
- Best Duet Song 2009
- Best Singapore Act 2009
- Top 5 Mandarin Male Vocalist 2009
- Best Male Vocalist 2009

Thanks to Kappa x YOHO, and the GCMA team for the love shown! You guys rock!

This was an important night for me, it’s another milestone in my life n career!

So here i am,
checking it out, posing with my favourite characters like a tourist.

Of course, not without some interaction of my own :P

How i would look if i joined American Idol too… lol. i think i look like wax here.

l1020011small
MJ, my inspiration.

I thought to myself, if I was a movie star, having a wax figure proves I have made an impact in the generation’s pop culture. As a musician, I’d like my song to echo on in the listener’s heart… if the song lives inside us, i think that’s when the singer / songwriter has attained success.

That’s when I get to see to the final stages of my upcoming album.

2009 has been a rough year for me. I would call it the “Trials and Tribulations” phase of my life, and
this album says it all…

and I am still moving on… under the gunfire of modern society.

Here’s evidence of that… after touchdown…
