Would You Still Love Me – Somaya Reece

I had a blast shooting my music video. It has taken me 2 days to recover. lol My styling team & glam squad Tekoa & LPC Shelly Castro did a fabulous job in bringing the 50′s inspired Sophia Loren’esque, in a modern day vibe that I wanted. The  Marilyn Monroe-Sophia Loren (I was named a young Sophia Loren of our generation) 50′s was a time when women of curves like myself were accepted and not frowned upon. I was able to bring this to life. And it was filmed to look like a film on RED CAMERAS! Rage my music video director was amazing to work with, so creative and such an actors director. He’s a heavy hitter in the music video world and I am SO HUMBLED he took on my project. My friend Dj Vlad came out to film some behind the scenes of the video as well as doing an exclusive interview. My sponsors Pepsi, Hennessy, the illest Monster Cable headphones “Diddy Beats” and “Dr Dre Beats”….! Due to VH1′s privacy policy I cannot show you all the photos and behind the scene videos until it is aired on VH1. I am however happy that everything is coming together well into turning Somaya Reece into a Household Name in 2011. The plan is not being talked about, it is being executed now! Very exciting and nerve wrecking. Enjoy these photos. As soon as I get the green light I will share more. Thank you everyone who continues to support me. This is an organic movement that is REAL, humble and self made. I represent for all my under dogs out there. Stay inspired :)

Strong Arm Steady “Make Me Feel” ft: Somaya Reece

September 27, 2010 in News

Hey guys. My boy Talib Kweli hit me up to be a part of his project with SAS. Strong Arm Steady are really good friends of mine from the West Coast. So you know I was down to help out. Get familiar with their music incase you don’t know about them. They rep the West Coast like no other.

DON’T ASK ME TO BE IN YOUR VIDEO EVER! I am not a video chick. Never have, never will be. If I don’t know you personally the answer is NO! If we don’t have records together the answer is NO! It makes no sense because I am not a video chick. DO NOT ASK!
