Penyanyi wanita genit bersuara merdu yang berasal dari Ranau, Sabah dan merupakan naib juara Akademi Fantasia musim ke-8 dan salah seorang peserta AF Megastar 2017, Siti Adira Suhaimi atau lebih terkenal dengan panggilan Adira muncul dengan single terbaharu setelah beberapa tahun menyepi kerana sibuk dengan urusan keluarga. Tampil dengan konsep muzik yang berbeza, Adira kembali dengan buah tangan terbaharu yang ditunggu-tunggu oleh peminatnya berjudul ‘Sembunyi’ hasil ciptaan penyanyi rap serta komposer terkenal tanahair iaitu Alif atau nama penanya Alif For Magic Potions.

Penyanyi yang diberikan jolokan ‘Queen of Soundtrack’ ini sememangnya sinonim dengan runut bunyi filem, drama TV serta drama bersiri tempatan dan sering mendapat perhatian apabila digandingkan dengan penyanyi bersuara emas negara, Hafiz Suip. Setiap runut bunyi yang dinyanyikan pasti menjadi siulan penggemar muzik tempatan dan sering mendapat berjuta tontonan di laman sesawang YouTube.

Ibu kepada Anggrek ini berkata,

“Single ‘Sembunyi’ sejujurnya tiada kena mengena dengan diri saya pun tapi apa yang saya faham daripada saudara Alif, ia mengenai sepasang kekasih yang telah berpisah dan tiada jodoh tetapi masih lagi mengambil berat dan masih menyayangi di antara satu sama lain secara diam-diam atau secara sembunyi. Walau bagaimanapun, jika orang lain mendengarnya mungkin mereka mempunyai pandangan tersendiri atau sesiapa sahaja di luar sana yang pernah mengalaminya sendiri.

Sebelum melakukan proses rakaman, saya telah pun mendengar beberapa karya dan akhirnya tertarik dengan ‘Sembunyi’ kerana melodinya yang unik selain mahukan sesuatu yang fresh dan lari dari kebiasaan.

Saya juga ingin memanjatkan rasa syukur kerana menjadi sebahagian daripada keluarga besar Rocketfuel Entertainment yang banyak membantu serta melancarkan kerjaya saya sekarang.

Diharapkan juga buat peminat-peminat saya di luar sana yang telah lama menunggu lagu terbaharu daripada saya dapat menerima ‘Sembunyi’ dengan baik serta penggemar muzik tanahair secara amnya.”

Menurut Adam Lobo, Ketua Label Muzik, Rocketfuel Records,

“Walaupun menyepi beberapa ketika, Adira tidak senyap begitu sahaja tetapi bangkit dengan single ‘Sembunyi’ yang memaparkan sisi lain yang tidak pernah kedengaran sebelum ini dan keluar daripada comfort zone.

Di sini terlihat kebolehan beliau sebagai penyanyi yang versatile dalam menyampaikan lagu pelbagai genre sekaligus meletakkan Adira pada kelasnya yang tersendiri.

Saya juga berharap agar ‘Sembunyi’ menjadi comeback song buat Adira kerana sudah lama beliau tidak mucul dengan lagu baharu dan dapat diterima ramai.”

Lagu ‘Sembunyi’ boleh dimuat turun di iTunes dan dijadikan sebagai panggilan nada dering menerusi semua syarikat telekomunikasi tempatan serta boleh didengari melalui penstriman di atas talian seperti Raku, Spotify, Joox dan Apple Music. Video lirik dan muzik lagu ‘Sembunyi’ ini juga boleh di tonton di saluran Youtube Rocketfuel Network.

Four Malaysian homegrown talents will don the country’s colors on the undercard of ONE: VISIONS OF VICTORY on Friday, 9 March at the Axiata Arena in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.

Gianni Subba is slated to lock horns with Filipino-Australian contender Reece “Lighting” McLaren in a three-round flyweight encounter, which will serve as the night’s main event.

Agilan “The Alligator” Thani is set to duke it out with promotional newcomer Amitesh Chaubey of India, while Muhammad Aiman squares off with Cambodia’s Rin Saorth in a bantamweight contest.

Moreover, Malaysian prospect Jihin “Shadow Cat” Radzuan is to make her ONE Championship debut against India’s Puja Tomar.

The aforementioned four Malaysian athletes are seeking to hoist their country’s flag aloft by winning their respective matches at ONE: VISIONS OF VICTORY.

“It’s an honor to represent Malaysia on a global stage like ONE Championship. I promise that I will do my best to give my beloved country another spectacular win,” Subba said.

“It’s also a privilege and honor to compete alongside these outstanding martial artists from Malaysia. We assure our fans that we are motivated and determined to win our respective bouts for Malaysia. We guarantee that we will not disappoint our countrymen,” he added.

Originally penciled to square off with former world title contender Danny Kingad on the same card, Subba was called up to the headlining bout to replace ONE Flyweight World Champion Adriano “Mikinho” Moraes, who was forced to pull out of his title defense versus McLaren due to an injury that he sustained in training.

The 25-year-old Malaysian dynamo is looking to follow up on his impressive August 2017 decision victory over ex-flyweight world title challenger Riku Shibuya and has been training consistently at Bali MMA in an effort to secure a world title opportunity.

“It is such a great opportunity to be in this position. Every martial artist dreams to become a champion. If I win, I believe that I am one step away from vying for that belt. I am not going down that easy in this bout,” Subba declared.

Meanwhile, Thani expressed his exuberance to compete inside a packed arena that is filled with thousands of his countrymen cheering for him.

“It feels great to be competing again in front of my countrymen. Every time I step outside the curtains and walk towards the cage, I feel the energy from the home crowd. Every roar from my countrymen gives me the adrenaline that I need for my match. It brings out the best in me,” Thani stated.

Thani stressed that he still has his sights on the ONE Welterweight World Championship, but he asserted that defeating the toughest athletes in the division will get him closer to the gold-plated strap that he craves.

“I want to beat the best guys. I just want to win and move forward,” he asserted. “I just want to keep competing [against] the best so that I can win every match, and eventually get my way back to the title.”

On the other hand, competing at home is always a highlight for Aiman, who looks to continue his winning ways and eventually vie for a divisional world championship.

“I like it more in Malaysia,” Aiman revealed. “It is really nice when you walk out and you have a lot of people cheering for you. When I compete, I am focused on my opponent, but I realize that every time I land a punch or get a takedown, I can hear the crowd responding, and that is really awesome.”

As part of the preliminary portion of ONE: VISIONS OF VICTORY, Radzuan is a woman on a mission as she seeks to ace her first assignment in ONE Championship.

“If my opponent thinks that she will have an easy time against me, she must think twice. I am here to win and make an impression. This is ONE Championship, the stage for the best martial artists. This is a chance to prove that I deserve to be where I am right now,” she said. 

The largest global sports media property in Asian history, ONE Championship™ (ONE), has just announced the complete card at ONE: IRON WILL, set for 24 March at the Impact Arena in Bangkok, Thailand. In the main event, reigning ONE Bantamweight World Champion Bibiano “The Flash” Fernandes of Brazil will defend his title against ONE Featherweight & Lightweight World Champion Martin “The Situ-Asian” Nguyen of Sydney, Australia.

Ticket information for ONE: IRON WILL is available at www.onefc.com

Chatri Sityodtong, Chairman and CEO of ONE Championship, stated: “I am super excited to announce another huge world title bout as reigning ONE Bantamweight World Champion Bibiano Fernandes will face two-division ONE Featherweight & Lightweight World Champion Martin Nguyen at ONE: IRON WILL. It’s a tremendous matchup, and one that the whole world wants to see. I have no doubt that these two warriors will be putting on a great show for everyone watching live in Bangkok. This is the biggest martial arts event in the history of Thailand, and I can’t wait to be in Bangkok for this one. It’s going to be absolutely phenomenal.”

37-year-old Bibiano “The Flash” Fernandes of Brazil is the reigning ONE Bantamweight World Champion, and widely considered one of the best martial artists in the world bar none. He made his ONE Championship debut back in 2012 and captured the bantamweight world title in 2013. Since then, Fernandes has remained unbeaten inside the ONE Championship cage, showcasing tremendous striking and grappling ability and an unwavering will to win. In his most recent bout, Fernandes made quick work of top divisional contender Andrew Leone, submitting the American with a rear-naked choke in the very first round. In his next title defense, Fernandes is set to face ONE Championship two-division titleholder, Martin Nguyen.

29-year-old Martin “The Situ-Asian” Nguyen is one of the most highly-regarded martial arts champions in the world. With an impressive 10-1 professional record, which includes three submissions and seven knockouts, Nguyen’s all-around skill set allows him to perform at the highest level of competition. All of Nguyen’s wins have come by exciting finish. In his most recent bout, Nguyen scored a scintillating knockout victory over the Philippines’ Eduard Folayang to become the first man in the history of ONE Championship to hold two titles simultaneously in two different weight divisions. Nguyen now reigns as the ONE Featherweight & Lightweight World Champion, and this March in Bangkok, he attempts to make history once again in going for his third world title in as many divisions. Nguyen is scheduled to face ONE Bantamweight World Champion Bibiano “The Flash” Fernandes in his next bid for greatness.

Talented Turkish lightweight contender by way of Dagestan, Russia, Saygid Guseyn Arslanaliev is rapidly making a name for himself as an unstoppable force inside the ONE Championship cage.

Three of Saygid’s wins have come by technical knockout and one by submission, with all coming in the very first round. The 23-year-old from Istanbul will take on Tetsuya Yamada in his next challenge.

27-year-old Tetsuya Yamada of Kanagawa, Japan, is a promising young martial artist with a distinct ability to seek out highlight-reel stoppages. He made his ONE Championship debut in January of 2016 in an extremely high-level wrestling showdown against Eduard Folayang of the Philippines. A seasoned grappler, over half of Yamada’s 24 career victories have come by spectacular finish, with the ability to end bouts either by submission or knockout. In his most recent bout, Yamada made very quick work of Kyle Rozewski to win by first-round rear naked choke. Yamada will take on the dangerous Saygid Guseyn Arslanaliev.

Malaysian standout Gianni Subba finds himself in a very fortunate position as he is on the cusp of a world title shot.

Subba is scheduled to take on with Filipino-Australian spitfire Reece “Lightning” McLaren in a flyweight world title eliminator at ONE: VISIONS OF VICTORY, which takes place at the Axiata Arena in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia on 9 March.

The three-round flyweight encounter will serve as the night’s main event, with the winner to get a flyweight world title shot in the future.

Originally penciled to square off with former world title contender Danny Kingad on the same card, Subba was called up to the headlining bout to replace ONE Flyweight World Champion Adriano “Mikinho” Moraes, who was forced to pull out of his title defense versus McLaren due to an injury that he sustained in training.

The 25-year-old Malaysian dynamo is looking to follow up on his impressive August 2017 decision victory over ex-flyweight world title challenger Riku Shibuya and has been training consistently at Bali MMA in an effort to secure a world title opportunity.

“It is such a great opportunity to be in this position. Every martial artist dreams to become a champion. If I win, I believe that I am one step away from vying for that belt. I am not going down that easy in this bout,” Subba declared.

Subba has been competing under the ONE Championship banner since October 2012, but it will be the first time that the main event spotlight will be on him.

According to Subba, it feels extra special as he will headline a ONE Championship event in front of his family and countrymen.

“Competing at home is always really cool,” he stated. “We get all these family members and friends to come out. The crowd really supports us, and that really helps a lot.”

Even if Subba’s maiden main event stint is seen by many as a cause for celebration, the Malaysian martial artist knows that he will need to be at his best against McLaren, who is no stranger to facing elite opposition.

McLaren owns a commendable professional record of 10-5 with eight of those wins coming by spectacular finish.

The 26-year-old Filipino-Australian had a hot start in the promotion as he rattled off a pair of victories against top bantamweights Mark Striegl and Muin Gafurov before challenging division kingpin Bibiano “The Flash” Fernandes in December 2016.

Although he ultimately lost the contest by a razor-thin split decision, it was by far the toughest test of Fernandes’ legendary run to date, proving McLaren’s exquisite talent.

Following a tough loss to Fernandes, McLaren dropped down a weight class and immediately made an impact in the flyweight division.

Last November, McLaren masterfully submitted the highly-regarded Anatpong “Mak Mak” Bunrad in the first round via D’Arce choke and became the first person ever to finish the Thai competitor.

“Reece McLaren comes out hard, and he looks to have good cardio. But I like to compete against people who come forward I like these types of matches. They are fun. I feel like a matador,” Subba said.

Subba hopes that he can reach a milestone in his professional career and become the division’s next title challenger.

“I have been labelled a top Malaysian prospect for the last couple of years now. I want to have a performance that moves me into the contender spot,” he concluded.
