That New Year's Eve Special & Tribute to SG Music Icons, Victor & Titus! | (Audio & Spotify Video)
For the full video, click on the link below!https://youtu.be/RhFeH3VO1RgIt’s New Year’s Eve and we pay tribute to two Club Deejay Legends, Victor Shaqur and Titus Singam! This is a nostalgia-filled, straight-talking, filter-less, heart to heart conversation as should be expected when you put the two of them and Chris Henson in one tight space so if you are easily rattled by any conversation that is authentically filled with potty-mouthed linguistics, steer clear! You have been warned!And to top off your New Year’s Eve celebrations especially if you intend to spend it in the privacy of your home either alone or with loved ones, Victor and Titus have prepared a 10-Minute Retro Hits Countdown to 2025 Mixed-Tape that you can play, pump up the volume at exactly 10-minutes to midnight! We even have a countdown in this mix at 20-seconds to the New Year to help you usher in 2025!Thank you for keeping us company in 2024 and we hope you have enjoyed Season 3 and 4 that we rolled out this year! We begin production for Season 5 in Jan 2025! Chris Henson and Khai Rules wish one and all, A Happy & Fruitful New Year!

Tribute to SG Music Icons: The Boni & Wendy Story Chapter 1 | (Audio & Spotify Video)
For the full video, click on the link below!https://youtu.be/TU1cGtyHeX8I love my show obviously, but more so because I am giving myself the grand opportunity to sit down with Singapore’s greats in the music and entertainment business. But more so, when I can actually have a proper heart to heart catch up with people whom I’ve worked with all those years ago and in the course of all of these, I start to realize that so much of what I am and how I have traversed my own musical and entertainment journey is owed to so many and without these amazing people not really knowing that they were responsible behind my formation from my youth and no one especially more so, than Boniface De Souza and his lovely wife, Wendy Low! Boni & Wendy are probably the classiest, super experienced and qualified; Jazziest musical couple in the music business for the past few decades! Listen to their story that I am proud to have also been a tiny part of it in the\is first of two chapters!
