I’m excited to say that after 4 1/2 long weeks of being down with a severe bronchial cold.
I have a week left of bed rest. FINALLY! My inhaler has had me awake in spurts of energy. Very weird.
The good news is, i’m ready to get back to work. And that’s all I care about right now! If you know me, you know how hard I grind, all by myself, you know i’m going stir crazy over here. lol
The bad news, my work is so backed up due to being down for 4 weeks. I have a ridiculous amount of work to catch up on. The list is LONG from features I haven’t finished, 4 of my music videos were on hold, and getting back to finishing my mixtape/album, my merchandise, omg so much much more. This has to be wrapped up in less than a month o_O
Back to the good news
My first single produced by Cito On The Beat – “Dale Mami” ft: Lumidee and focus of the beginning year has dropped on my DJ’s mixtape. DJ Spin King presents “Hip House” everyone is on it Somaya Reece, Diggy Simmons, Lil Twist, Red Cafe, Fatman Scoop, Maino, Jae Millz, Cassidy & sooo many more! It’s received a lot of press and great feedback from radio, DJ’s, fans including Vibe magazine writing about it. What a blessing. Shooting a video to “Dale Mami” is on the schedule as well.
Other good news. While I was sick Vh1 for my show “Love & Hip Hop” booked me on magazines, both covers & feature stories regarding my music and show. Did a photoshoot for them and all. We are starting our press run, expect to see me & our show everywhere. My most exciting moments will be going on Don Francisco, Wendy Williams, Chelsea Lately, George Lopez, The View, Ellen and El Gordo Y La Flaca
I’ll be flying to L.A for 2 months to do a press run with my Los Angeles management. Oh and of course recording more music. I will also be dusting off my furniture. lol My house is just sitting there while i’m over here in New York working. I’m so excited to see my family and friends. I miss them so much, I am nothing without my family.
I’m so thankful I disciplined myself and took almost 4 years off to develop myself as an artist. This is all i’ve ever wanted to do, but all the noise around me kept overshadowing my efforts. I’m so glad I took to the time to really develop my music, polishing up my skills was the best thing I could have ever done. I’ve recently met with 5 major record labels (2 offers) that listened to my new material and brought me in. My polished work is really showing and has gotten the respect of a lot of people I was dying to work with. Hard work, consistency and determination really pays off. I have quality radio ready music to push this year. So excited!!! Boss Lady & Dale Mami is a clear example of it. Can’t wait….
What’s next for Somaya Boss Reece “La Jefa” is something very serious!
Thank you TEAM SOMAYA for holding me down while i’ve been sick. We’re taking this to the top and I need you rooting for me along the way. You know the haters are always lurking when it comes to me. When you’re a BAD BITCH!!!!!!! They all wanna take you down. Too bad they can’t. ha
