IAmFlux X Co-Ke|Can't Wait Video Bomb w/ Rate

         

Watching the whole video it gave me the Usher and R Kelly "Same Girl" vibe from the jump. The production makes this not only a mood setter but it invites a very sexy feel to the song with the visuals. In "Can't Wait"  Flux teams up with fellow St. Pete artist, rapper Co-Ke for an almost predictable meet up among friends when they realize they've been seeing the same woman. The story line is a plus and something I definitely look for when critiquing videos. The video was sexy and seductive a bit predictable with the story line but nevertheless I was entertained and I couldn't help but get into the song.  I liked the overall feel of the video as well as the perspectives from a singer and rapper point of view. This song definitely fits in my niche of songs that I like that feature a male singer and male rapper on the song. I have given the video a  thorough rating below and please don't forget to connect with the artist below!

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

Musical Dopeness| Jamie Foxx a.k.a Past (Future's Father)

You would be surprised were you would be able to find the most dopest music content. What do you get when you mix  Direct TV commercials and football stars?  You get the most epic fake music video courtesy of the Manning Brother's iconic "Football on your Phone". So what happens when Verizon teams up with comedian, artist, and actor Jamie Foxx ?! More exceptional musical dopeness. I don't know why Future can't catch a break of people imitating his musical style but it is interesting and entertaining to see all the different spins there is to this guy's persona. Jamie Foxx is a fool and acts like a real old timer, muttering words and even dancing with a cane. The "I Got Verizon" song sounds a lot like Future's hit "Commas" and  the commercial was shown during Game 7 of the NBA Finals. It's no wonder companies use music to help sell a product. And with Sprint's recent snag of the "Verizon Guy" that use to say "Can you here me now?" Verizon took shots back by having Foxx finish his ad libs by saying " It ain't about can you hear me now, it's about can you see me now" which pretty much sealed the deal. Check out Jamie Foxx below as Past, Future's dabbin father in the Verizon commercial.

Ears to the Streets Eyes on the Underground

 I'm sure some, not all artist and music based professions know I exclusively show case underground and independent artist locally based normally but I also showcase the same type of artist around the country and internationally. A few weeks back I started doing a satellite radio show on a Hip-hop based radio station called HipHopulist Radio. The show airs every Tuesday at 6 pm with a re air at 10 pm eastern standard time. If you miss that day it will re air Thursday at 6pm. (eastern) I have teamed up with an awesome team over at HHR to bring yet another platform for artist that consider their selves as independent or underground artist. With E2TS and Hood Watch my goal is to share with other active music listeners and enthusiast exactly what no name artists have to offer. Mainstream radio is already saturated with big names and local artist often have a hard time getting their music heard and some of them are actually better than mainstream artist. I hope by extending these platforms to those in my city as well as surrounding cities and states that I can help them get heard beyond the scope of where they are located. I ask that you pass the word on to other local artist that could use a boost in getting their music heard as well as continue to support M$C as a movement by submitting the music and videos. Also asking me to come see shows and in a whole supporting movements designed to help artist win. I am hoping to see a lot more artist submitting music and I definitely encourage the likes of people just starting out to submit music. Even though I mainly focus on Hip Hop and rap music R&B artist, country, pop, and anything in between don’t feel shy to submit your music as well. Ear 2 The Streets is free range and  I will cover anything music base on there. I am so appreciative to those that believe in me and take the time to thank, encourage, and include me in on what they are doing music wise. I ask that if you are an independent artist no matter your genre that you submit your music and/ or videos to e2tsmusicsubmissions@gmail.com to be considered for the blog or radio show. Thanks in advance and keep grinding. In the worlds of Juvenile “Y’all need to open ya ears up and soak this game up and of nobody don’t know ya Ima make y’all famous.”
