The label that brought us, Won Beri, the Street Scriptures Vol.1, DjKlem, Phenom and Mo’Cheddah, Knighthouse Entertainment is pleased to unveil their latest addition to the KH family, African soul fusion singer, Iye.
She was first noticed when she featured on DjKlem’s 2010 EP, Six8Ten, where she brought the song ‘Laiye’ to life and made a repeat appearance on his 2011 AfroFunkyDiscoSoul EP alongside Teeto on the track ‘Footprints’ and its video which we posted a while back.
Here are her first studio efforts, two songs, Nothing and Hello. Both tracks were produced by the uber talented DjKlem.

2012 Movie Preview - Watch Out!!!

The biggest upcoming movies, 2012. In short, this year will be the largest ever for comic book movies and the number of exciting titles easily blows last year out of the water. Assuming your taste is mainstream, these are odds on to be the 20 best movies of 2012:
THE DARK KNIGHT RISES
Starring: Christian Bale, Tom Hardy, Anne Hathaway, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Gary Oldman
Director: Christopher Nolan
Release Date: 20 July 2012.
Best Movies 2012
It was a brave move naming a Batman film ‘The Dark Knight’, since it didn’t have the word ‘Batman’ in it. There’s nothing bold about the title here. That aside, this is easily the year′s mainstream highlight, the film that is going to dominate coverage. The plot involves the whole of Gotham descending into anarchy and mob rule, while Batman is put out of action. Tom Hardy look imposing as Bane but his vocals seem hard to follow, Anne Hathaway plays an angry-looking Catwoman who appears to steal from the rich because she passionately hates them, Joseph Gordon-Levitt plays a beat cop and Marion Cotillard plays a Wayne Enterprises board member. Director Christopher Nolan has made it clear this is the final chapter for his Batman, so expect fireworks and major character death, probably. Can’t wait to see it.

THE AVENGERS
Starring: Samuel L. Jackson, Robert Downey Jr., Chris Evans, Chris Hemsworth, Mark Ruffalo
Director: Joss Whedon
Release Date: 4 May 2012.
Best Movies Of 2012
Running The Dark Knight a close second for hype will be The Avengers. The confirmed line-up includes Iron Man, Thor, Captain America, Nick Fury, Black Widow, and Hawkeye (Jeremy Renner). Ruffalo is replacing Ed Norton as The Hulk. But who are they going to fight? It’s a challenge to find a credible threat that requires their combined effort – it looks like they’re turning to outer space for that, with a bit of Loki megalomania thrown in too. Director Joss Whedon has a daunting task on his hands.

THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN
Starring: Andrew Garfield, Emma Stone, Rhys Ifans, Irrfan Khan, Martin Sheen
Director: Marc Webb
Release Date: 4 July 2012.
Best Movies 2012
Spider-Man gets a slightly uncalled for reboot that takes him back to high school. 27-year-old Andrew Garfield (The Social Network) is the new Peter Parker and Mary Jane is nowhere to be seen, replaced by Gwen Stacey (Emma Stone). This time Spider-Man has to face down against the Lizard (Ifans) and the “Proto-Goblin,” (Khan) a test subject of Norman Osborn’s experimentations. Martin Sheen is Uncle Ben, who presumably has to be shot dead again. The director of 500 Days Of Summer takes over from trilogy director Sam Raimi. They’re also going for a much lower budget, so expect more character work, less morphing sand.

THE HOBBIT: An Unexpected Journey
Starring: Martin Freeman, James Nesbitt, Richard Armitage, Sir Ian McKellen, Andy Serkis
Director: Peter Jackson
Release Date: 14 December 2012.
Best Movies 2012
Hobbit Bilbo Baggins (Martin Freeman) journeys to the Lonely Mountain accompanied by a group of dwarves to reclaim a treasure taken from them by the dragon Smaug. The LOTRings prequels are full steam ahead in New Zealand, with Peter Jackson in the director’s chair and union troubles put behind them. James Nesbitt will play Bofur, one of the main dwarves. Sir Ian McKellen returns as Gandalf. Others returning include Andy Serkis, Cate Blanchett, Orlando Bloom, Ian Holm, Hugo Weaving, Elijah Wood, and Christopher Lee. The movie will be split, with chapter two (the literally-titled The Hobbit: There and Back Again) released December of the following year.

THE BOURNE LEGACY
Starring: Jeremy Renner, Rachel Weisz, Edward Norton, Joan Allen
Director: Tony Gilroy
Release Date: 3 August 2012.

Matt Damon’s not in it. The character of Jason Bourne is not in it. Damon and previous director Greengrass were determined to end the series with the third movie, but the studio wants to continue the franchise, as it has made them too much money. This is not a sequel or a reboot, but a standalone story about another agent (Renner) trained by the murderous shadow government operation Treadstone, who went through experiences similar to Bourne’s or the character played by Clive Owen in the original movie. Rachel Weisz plays the love interest. Edward Norton is the antagonist. Matt Damon is not ruling out returning to the series at a later point, so this could act as something of a set-up for that. New director Gilroy adapted the original trilogy and directed Michael Clayton, so it’s actually in pretty decent hands.

SKYFALL (Bond 23)
Starring: Daniel Craig, Javier Bardem, Judi Dench, Ralph Fiennes, Albert Finney
Director: Sam Mendes
Release Date: 9 November 2012.
New 2012 Movies
MGM’s bankruptcy troubles are behind them so Bond is finally back in production. The plot sees him question his loyalty to M when her past actions bring serious consequences to the present. After MI6 itself is attacked, Bond must seek out and eliminate the threat. Bardem plays the main villian. Fiennes’ role is undisclosed. Young Ben Whishaw is the new Q. China will be one of the locations. Sam Mendes (American Beauty, Jarhead) directs from a script by Wade and Purvis, who’ve been the main writers on every Bond since TWINE. Quantum was a stumble from Casino Royale, taking the freshness and packing it back into the Bond formula. Hopefully they have learnt from their mistakes. 2012 will be the 50th anniversary of Dr. No and the franchise.
