Double Bomb| Paublo Patrick Young Lord & Fire w/ Rates


I first have to say that Paublo Patrick is one of the few artist that I work with on a regular basis and he stays on me about everything! So much so that I have received several Facebook messages scolding me about why "Young Lord" and "Fire" have yet to be featured. With all that being said, I have two Video Bombs below from 3921 front man Paublo Patrick and these two visuals are sure to put Paublo Patrick in your immediate sight. Given that "Young Lord" dropped first, I will start with that. Directed by BBros Filmz, Young Lord is another dope imprint in music from the mind of Paublo. He often grabs you with sound clips from familiar visuals before he ever drops a verse. Paublo Patrick's lyrics literally touch my soul. Given the interviews him and I have conducted I am well aware of where he came from and where he is going. He gives you a wide open view into real life strife. Sometimes you can't quite pinpoint where he is going with his visuals but once you see the entire thing come together it is mind blowing. He always has nice scenes and I love that he almost always incorporates a beach scene. The scenes of him with his children and in the studio shows he is just a regular guy living life. And the fact that he placed himself in a room reenacting the night he lost his mother is touching and sad all at the same time. Being as young as he was when he lost her only amplifies what the video is saying and I have no idea how he was able to even participate in the scene knowing what it represented.He does not disappoint with these visuals and continues to surprise me with what he puts together. Check out my Rate for "Young Lord": Below and even further down check out my Review and Rate of "Fire" also by Paublo Patrick

Q & A with Tamara Bubble


[MSC]:
Has the achievements you've received made you more noticed by your peers?


[Tamara Bubble]:"
Yes, definitely. My peers already respect my work and many are fans too, but the accolades help in terms of collab requests and networking. I intentionally have not done any collabs (with mainstream / indie) on any of my projects because I do so much. My range is from Baritone to Soprano. I work with and blend so many genres so I wanted to be able to showcase ALL of what I do so people are fully aware of the BUBBLE, but they're seeking me out and showing love and it's really dope!


[MSC]:Who do you make your music for and why?
[Tamara Bubble]: I make a music buffet for life's problems! I'm that friend you can come to and ask anything on any touchy subject ... whether it's about clubbing, love, sex, relationships, suicide, crime, stereotypes, politics, current events, and more! There's no limit to what I won't talk about and my concepts are powerful, comical and sexy so my catalog has something you can dance to, cry to, laugh to, and make babies to 😉 ... all things bubbly, of course.
[MSC]:
Out of all the features you've done is there any you wish you hadn't done?
[Tamara Bubble]: 
lol I never want any regrets and music chemistry is something you can't predict so I welcome the collabs, but like I said earlier I haven't done any features on my work or projects because I'm still in the process of revealing my full sound and all that I'm capable of. As far as features on other artists' projects ... they go through my management first (contact form on my official webbie TamaraBubble.com) and once the business make sense it's #BubbleOnDeck 🙂 so the music is gonna be popping.
[MSC]: Besides music what are some business ventures you're interested in just as much or more than music?
[Tamara Bubble]: 
Well I'm also an actress, model, TV host, and pod-caster. I have an online TV show "U Gon Get Got" where we expose scammers in entertainment. I do it to give back to the indie community because there's no gatekeeper or resumes in entertainment. Anybody can just build a website, set up an email and a pay pal and start preying on the up and coming dreamers. I have a video podcast (on my youtube.com/tamarabubble) called "Bubble On Deck" where I talk about random topics ... all things bubbly and another podcast in connection with UGonGetGot that give advice and tips for newbies in entertainment. If that isn't enough lol I develop jingles, commercials, music licensing for businesses and even do a little consulting in my spare time ... If there's ever any lol. Those brand building services are on my Tamara Bubble Entertainment sister site http://allthingsbubbly.biz But to be truthfully honest, I'm not interested in anything more than I'm interested in music. I'm writing new material EVERYDAY and just as eager to record it, rehearse it, promote it and perform it! #BubbleOnDeck

OneShot Hot|Video Bomb w/ Rate





Over a month ago OneShot Hot released a video called  "BrightHouse" It is directed
by Walka Visionz and at this point you guys should know I am a stickler for visuals. I was not all to thrilled with his lyricism as the lyrics were a little basic. I think with more challenging topics and being able to incorporate other words he will be someone to watch out for. The production was sick and it definitely gives you that trapper feeling and while the visuals weren't that complex it was a step above what most rappers do. He had simple scenes but I like that he didn't take the easy route and throw in a strip club scene with half naked girls dancing. If I have said it once, I'll say it again that scene is tired and played out and so cliche. I applaud whomever assisted him in deciding how his scenes were going to be because I know how easy it is to just say "go find some girls" The absence of females allowed me as a viewer to see OneShot Hot as an artist. While I think he can definitely do better lyrically I think he has potential to rise if he's willing to put the work in. Rap is more than having the funds to flash a couple stacks and produce a video. I thought the hook was catchy and after about the forth run back I caught myself even saying it.I am anticipating what is next and I hope he is working on those lyrics as I type. As always I have done a rate on this video and you can check it out below along with a few stills from the video.

Hip Hop Honors:| All Hail The Queens





Last night VH1 honored female emcee's that have changed the game. I feel like this was well over due. Salt and Pepa ft. DJ Spinderella, Queen Latifah, Lil Kim, and Missy Elliot all were honorees at last nights awards show. This is my second award review and this one I have so much to say. EVE the Ruff Ryders female front runner was the host as well as performed in some of the tributes. How appropriate it was to have her host this years Honor. First off, I loved the tributes but I have to point out Lil Mama's excessive need to spend more time on the stage then she is allotted. The damn door was sliding close and she barely made it into it. She has the perfect animation though for the Lil Kim tribute and  they even enlisted Trina, Dej Loaf, Keke Palmer, Dreezy and Da Brat to name just a few of the female artist that honored those women last night. And am I the only one that thinks Ashanti was a decent rapper last night? She actually killed it. I loved the Naughty by Nature tribute to Queen Latifah and all the iconic fashions being immulated on stage. MY GOD! I could not handle it. Let me touch on the fact that Rich Homie Quan bombed on Biggie's verse and it was sad. How can you call yourself a rapper and not know the line or at least took the time to learn it before you had to get your butt up on stage next to the Queen B. I honestly haven't seen a Hip Hop Honor's since they did the Dirty South edition and I LOVED that one! This one was good and definitely needed. These women along with all the one's who graced the stage to pay homage fight to be taken serious in a male dominant industry. They have battled, fought, and proved they can keep up with their male counterparts. And a few of their male peers came to show love last night. It was good to see images of the old Lil Kim. I don't care to know why she wanted to change that is her business but I just love the way she use to look. Besides realizing that Teyanna Taylor killed the Lil Kim tribute, we were reminded that Hip Hop touches everybody and everything. The first family is up on Hip Hop, Fashion designers like Marc Jacobs is up on Hip Hop, and even the likes of Betty White can quote a Latifah line. Last nights show was good and if you missed out I'm sure you can catch it on Demand or on VH1. The recent police brutality issues are country has been faced with was brought up and it should be talked about daily. We cannot let these injustices go unknown. And as long as these Queen's have these platforms its safe to say they will continue to put our community up!
