TANGO BEATS ON THE TONEDEFTESTIMONIES

I had a wonderful time getting to know more about Tango Beats (@tangobeats727). We've ran in the same circle for a few years now but I finally got a chance to meet and pick the brain of a very dope individual. His transition in the music game is what intrigued me. He went from being part of a group to being his own headliner with dreams to pursue. Those dreams eventually led to him guiding upcoming artists with a vision and also original production. His story is common to me but the way he's managed to navigate is exceptional and you'll see why on this edition of the ToneDefTestimonies.

CHRIS JACKSON ON THE TONEDEFTESTIMONIES

A few years ago I had the pleasure of hosting an Album Release Party for an Artist with a vision bigger than himself. The project was called "Black Lives Matter" and touched on all of the themes that we are still seeing play out. This was over 5 years ago and his message continues to ring true. In the years since the show, I've personally watched Chris Jackson (@bdpmagazine813) separate and elevate. He saw an opportunity to guide the Artists with no direction and he ran with it. We talked about that and much more on this entry into the ToneDefTestimonies. Follow along with the #tonedeftestimonies at www.tone-kapone.com/tonedeftestimonies.

FRE$H P & MIKE 2WICE ON THE TONEDEFTESTIMONIES

When it comes to the Tampa Bay music scene I've been blessed to see so many Artists ascend. It's crazy to think about how many years have passed since I met Fre$h P & Mike 2wice. But in that time I've seen them take over Tampa and build a buzz organically. Separately they're a problem. They're both dope in their own way. Together they're an unstoppable force and their chemistry is undeniable. I sat down and spoke with them about their upcoming project and how they've been able to progress to this point for this edition of the ToneDefTestimonies.

BIG BUSINESS ON THE TONEDEFTESTIMONIES

Over the past few years I've personally watched Big Business (@bighlw) elevate his game to another level. I met him as a Hip-Hop Artist but he's since put on an amazing Web Series titled "What's Real Hip-Hop" that was vital in the progression of the music scene in Tampa Bay. He incorporated area artists into his film "20/20 Vision" and he followed that up with his "Transition Talks" platform which brings weekly messages to the masses. He's not afraid to be great and he wants his events to have purpose. We spoke about that in great detail and also about his 1st event of the year (202ONE) and the difficulties the pandemic brought to the forefront.

RAHIM SAMAD ON THE TONEDEFTESTIMONIES

Rahim Samad (@rahimsamad) is a perfect blend of Hip-Hop. On one hand he utilizes his ear to provide the backdrop for the moment as a DJ. On the other hand he can rock a microphone and command a crowd as a MC. I talked with him about the different mindsets going into each job and what, if any, he could live without. We also debuted two new tracks from his recent album which dropped 11/30: Nubian Tapestries. Follow along with the #tonedeftestimonies at www.tone-kapone.com/tonedeftestimonies.

B. BLAIZE ON THE TONEDEFTESTIMONIES

B. Blaize (@blaize27) is a throwback when it comes to his music. He puts lyricism on display in a day and age where few can match his wordplay.
