Real Talk

Here is my Lovey's latest video.
I love it.
I love the concept.
I love the footage.
I'm VERY proud of him and all of his hard work.
I will never be able to say that enough.
I know I give him a hard time about spending time with me but I'm pretty sure all women are crazy! (I can openly say that because I know I am sometimes <<*note the sometimes>> and I know most all men will agree with me)
I hope he knows that I believe in him.
I hope he knows and realizes just how special and talented he is.
My children and I couldn't have been more blessed.
Shout out to Jayeb Ent for directing and editing this music video.
Stay tuned for more songs to come.
Lovey's EP is scheduled to be available for free download on June 1, 2013.
If you're feeling it, go ahead and share it!
Heck, you could listen to these songs with your parents, grandparents and family and not feel awkward because it's clean.
No cussing, no nastiness, no idolizing materialistic junk.
Just real stories with a real purpose.
Real thoughts, real feelings.
He's very private with his work and stays in the lab for hours upon hours, days upon days perfecting his craft.
Once his EP drops, it will be the first time I hear these songs so I'm excited and can't wait to hear it.
I realize these are all sacrifices that have to be made.
The great thing is, he knows when to shut it down and spend some quality time with his family and for that, I am forever grateful.
Hope you all have a wonderful day.
For all of you grinders and hustlers, stay at it!!

The Rebellion

My Lovey did it again!
Just watching the video and all the work that was put into it makes me proud!
We've sacrificed a lot of our time for him to follow his dreams. I don't think people realize how much work actually goes into a music video. This literally was two months of work. Check out my love scratching on the ones and twos. I really want to learn how to do that! Maybe I'll ask him to teach me! Happy Friday everyone!

March 22, 2013

Yep, that's right! My husband is opening for this guy and Clyde Carson!

I'm pretty excited for him. I even did a little touchdown dance for him but I don't know if he liked it as much as I did.

March 22, 2013 it's going down in Pasadena at The Terrace.
If you're local and would like to join in on the fun, hit us up for more details.

PASADENA SHOW!!

Hey everyone! I have tickets to Lovey's show at The Terrace in Pasadena.

$10 presale tickets. $20 at the door.

Come join us for a night of great music and watch my love do his thing on stage!!

Opening up for KURUPT!!

Zeek had a show in Pasadena, California at The Terrace.
He had the opportunity to open up for hip-hop's legend Kurupt.
It was a great night, great music and a huge learning experience.
Kurupt is a great performer. He's crisp and sounds just like he does on the radio. He's been in the music industry for over 20 years so it was amazing to watch him do his thing.
He was down to earth and walked around letting people take pictures with him.
I'm grateful for my husband's hard work, for continuing to follow his dreams and for wanting to do what he loves. I know his hard work will pay off like I always say.

I thought it was great that Janet was able to capture the whole event. By the end of the night she was on stage with Kurupt and his entourage snapping away! 

It was fun and I LOVE watching my husband on stage.

Zeek - 90's Flow

The best 1 minute and 32 seconds of your life!! haha

I absolutely love music.
I love every genre of music. Yes even country!!
My husband is a lyrical genius and I love it! 
It's nice to see him perfect his craft.
I love to see his creative juices flow and watching him practice is quite refreshing.
I love that he takes me back to good times.
I love that each beat, song choice, lyric, logo, picture, release of songs are all strategically done. Everything he does is for a greater purpose than just what meets the eye. He's very smart and logical in that sense. He plays his cards well and I am proud of his hard work.
I love the drive that he has. He definitely puts in his work.
Balancing a family, getting in studio time almost every night, getting videos done, setting up the business end of Uso Coalition Ent, sellers permits, trademarking, clothing line, placing & shipping orders and just making sure we're crossing our t's and dotting our i's is A LOT of work but he does it so well and is taking it in good stride.
I know that pursuing his dream and doing what he loves will take a lot of work and sacrifice. If it means our time is limited, I am all for it just because I love him and I will support him in every and any way I can.
I have learned a lot as well. It's a big investment and quite a big jump to get a business going. It's definitely a leap of faith but I do know that we'll be ok. The great thing is we are learning through trial and error. Time management is getting easier to juggle and it just helps us put our priorities in check.
I know his hard work will pay off. I know that good things will come because of his hard work and talent.

Thank you to everyone for your continuous support whether it be reposting a video, sharing a link, liking a page or buying sweaters. You all are amazing and can't thank you enough.

I know that my husband is grateful for you all and we hope you continue to enjoy the ride and this journey that is taking place!!

Happy Thursday everyone!!

A lot of work is going on behind the scenes and I want to send a special shout out to my husband Isaiah. He is constantly thinking, working, writing, making moves. He hardly sleeps because he's hungry; he wants it and is willing to put in the work.
Success doesn't come to those who wait. I can see it in his eyes that he's determined to do whatever it takes to be successful. I hope he knows how much I love and support everything he does.
Remember, it is up to you to make a difference in your life. To be that change and become whatever your heart so desires.

Happy Thursday everyone!!

New Logo

We have been doing a lot of work behind the scenes.
Promoting, social networking, getting the group name out there as well as recording and shooting videos.
My husband got together with Randomface Alo (he also shot their latest video, "On a Good One") and came up with a catchy logo. It was exactly what he was looking for; catchy and simple.
It is trademarked and set in stone.
Stay tuned, we will have Uso Coalition clothing and gear within the next month.
Just remember, while you're sleeping, we're putting in work. RISE AND GRIND!!

USO COALITION: On A Good One

New music video for Uso Coalition.

The Coalition Looce - Do You (Cover)

I've told you all before that I was super excited to present Looce's first official video! It was fun to watch this and made me a proud sister!! I liked the fact that is was intimate and the video turned out exactly the way Zeek wanted it to. Watching it had me thinking of what's to come for him. Big shout out to One Shot Media Films. Also to Buka and Destiny. You guys are awesome!
I think he has the whole package. Mark my words my friends, he's gonna make it big.
He's special, I can see it! I always have, always will. Looce reminds me so much of my love Zeek. Their work ethic makes me want to work harder and become better. They think alike and have their goals set. No one is going to stop them from living their dreams. And that is something that you can not teach!!
Love you guys!!
Hope you all have a happy Thursday. Only five days away from Christmas.

From our family to yours,

Happy Holidays!!

Busy weekend!!

Uso Coalition had quite the busy weekend and might I add very productive.
Friday morning the Utah crew drove in and it was down to business the minute they came in. For those of you who don't know, there are five members of the group. Three of them reside in California and the other two live in Utah.
They went down to a studio in Alhambra and laid down a few tracks and re-recorded their other songs for their demo cd.
On Saturday morning, they were ready for their photo shoot with our awesome friend actually more like family member and photographer Janet Ropati.
They shot at two locations in Southern California; our backyard and Mile Square Park. The first part of the shoot was a casual wear and then they dressed it up with suits. They sure do clean up well!!
After their photo shoot they shot a video for one of their songs they have not yet released so stay tuned for me to release it once it's done.
They shot their video at Mile Square Park with one of their friends, Random Face. Check him out on youtube. His videos are quality and he's a real stand up guy. Very genuine and humble!
After that they went up to Oceanside to shoot the rest of their video.
I can definitely say it was a productive weekend for the group and just the start of many more busy weekends.
The thing that will set them apart from all the rest of the groups out there is the work they are willing to put in. It's like the saying goes, "the early bird gets the worm" so I hope that they all know that their success will only come to them if they are willing to put in the work. Seems self exlpanatory and so simple yet not a lot of people are willing to put in the time and effort.
Through ups and downs, good and bad. It will all pay off.
I am totally willing to sacrifice time with my husband if it means he is able to pursue his dreams. I believe in him. I hope he knows how much support he actually has and that I'm in it through the long haul. They make me proud and am grateful to be surrounded by such amazing people!! Happy Monday everyone!!

{This is just a sneak peak of the photo shoot. Aren't they quite the lookers?!}

EXCITED!!

This weekend is all work and no play!!
The Coalition will be gearing up to get in the studio tonight and photo shoot tomorrow morning!!
Stay tuned for results of their photo shoot.
I can't wait to share their progress with you all until then have a great weekend all!!

Coming Soon!

Be on the lookout for Lewis' video for his cover of Miguel's "Do You." He shot his video today with One Shot Media Films.
