Where is Somaya Reece? This is what I have been up to. Signing deals

January 9, 2012 in News

Firstly i’m grateful to be on 2 seasons of a hit show on Vh1 – Love And Hip Hop. My purpose of being on this show was to build a  platform and take the success to a new height! As any FOCUSED individual  should do if given a chance to be on a hit show with 5 million weekly viewers. Vh1  introduced me to a new audience outside of the audience I had already built throughout the years. I am very thankful for this Gracias A Dios :)

Fast forward……..I got exactly what I have been looking for,  you only  saw  a fraction of it on  the show. Although I would have LOVED for you to see my journey, I have my website , Twitter and Facebook to keep you updated. I got my deal (indy) investment,  I went to L.A, Boston & Denver signed several awesome deals for TV, a publisict, brand management, working on my book, and acting. Met with a few casting directors that I will be working with directly. I left town on a mission and I was blessed!

1  particular  thing  i’m excited about, I have a MAJOR talent agency representing me now. And  **drum roll please**  an awesome brand manager with a lot of experience.  I now have a very experienced team that represent big celebrities! So they know what to do with me in order for me to go reach the top. They work with many of your favorite stars and are hands on with everything involving their brand. My musical team is impeccable, Midi Mafia, KMG, and  Richy Pena. My new musical sound is SOLID and is moving good numbers so far. I must say, 2012 is starting off with a big bang !!!!

I AM SOOOOOOO EXCITED ABOUT THIS ? ? ? My team as a whole is 100% committed to me & my project, they care, and they are TUFF. I’m grateful that I found everything I needed to move my name & music. Don’t get it twisted tho, now comes the hard work and I am ready for it :)

I also re connected with my  close friends whom of course I stay in touch with, but I haven’t seen since I left L.A. My mom was so happy to see me, I didn’t tell her I was coming I just popped up in my house and she flipped out of happiness. She was like “are you back here for good” awwwwww I love her. So yeah, my move to NY, I literally called my only  East Coast friend at the time Cito (from season 1) and said I was sick of not finding this Latin musical sound I was looking for so I was going to drop everything and leave to NY. He thought I was crazy, so did my mother, my father freaked out, my sisters cried, but I knew I just had to do this  if I was going to pursue my dream 100% Can you believe it has been two years since I came to NY with nothing but a dream, a suitcase, no home to live in, leaving my entire family and home behind???? I can’t either! lol But I firmly believe without risk, you will only look back at your life and wonder…..WHAT IF?

Thank you everyone for your support through this journey. The girl that came to NY with 1 suitcase and no place to live :) It took forever, years of extreme sacrifice but. Here I am…..

My 2o12 highlight moment: Missy Elliott is my musical inspiration, she broke down all the barriers that Hollywood built, she is an inspiration to the youth and her story is touching, she has overcome so much I just love and relate to her so much.  I was on Twitter late last night writing to fans and I tweeted her. I seriously had NO IDEA she would even read to or have any clue who little ole me was. To my SHOCK she tweeted me back, I literally shed a tear and screamed.  I am so humbled and still smiling so big right now. It’s official! My 2012 is now off to a GREAT start and you can’t tell me nothin!!!!!! **Nas Voice** lol  I’m going into overdrive in my work. She is a LEGEND and did not have to even acknowledge my existence but she did. I feel so motivated to grind harder than before. It is inspiring that such a  MASSIVE musical  legend is so humble,  sweet, and congratulated another artist for  their hard work. What a classy woman. Pinch me please??

This is the most awesomest year EVER! And it just started…..

Somaya Reece Talks Season 2 of Love & Hip Hop in Vibe magazine

September 29, 2011 in News

Hey guys  Vibe Magazine has posted my interview, check it out here  Vibe Vixen (click here)

Here goes a small piece of the article CLICK HERE TO READ THE FULL 2 PAGE ARTICLE:

Somaya “Boss” Reece is a woman ahead of her time. Putting her nickname into action, this buxom diva allowed cameras to capture the beginnings of her New York journey on the first season of VH1’s Love & Hip-Hop. Proving she’s a fighter, La Jefa has returned for round 2 of the critically acclaimed show, poised and with a focus on her brand (including a tequila and clothing venture). Now hip to the inner workings of reality television, Bossy Montana strives to be more than her reality star status and deliver that which seems to be only understood by her most loyal fans. Determined to express herself while steering clear of distractions, will the voice of this Latina Vixen finally be heard? VIBE Vixen checked in with Somaya as she chats about season 2 of Love & Hip-Hop, relationships with the new castmates and her role this time around.

VIBE VIXEN: It’s been about a year since you’ve shot the first season of Love & Hip-Hop, how does it feel to come back for season 2?
