Sometimes we can't take everything so seriously. Sometimes we need to just be grateful for the chances we have to escape to paradise. For me that paradise is a small island off Massachusetts called Nantucket where I have spent my summers since a kid. In fact the inspiration for my "Deep SeeS" album. I was on vacation this summer and just wanted to share with the world how lucky I felt. Thanks for the support! #SeeSMusic The song is called "Ride The Wave" which I produced, wrote and performed. Song will be released soon, for now you can enjoy it watching the video! Thanks

New Music!! Be sure to check out my latest track "LETITBREATHE" which addresses critics and how their opinions of me are irrelevant to my process of making art! Freedom of expression for me has no room for criticism from people I don't know or respect. Expressing yourself is not judging others. Learn to express yourself freely, not in the context of other peoples judgement. LET YOURSELF BREATHE! - SeeS Music

Grammy Nominated, R.I.A.A. Double Platinum and Gold Certified
Mega-Producer, Fantom of the DOPE Production Unit, Fantom of the Beat
drops the long-awaited video for his new Single, “First Time Ever”.
“First Time Ever” dropped on March 21st, 2017 and features G Snyder and
AB Money. Both the Song and the Video reflect and give us that
authentic New York Hip-Hop sound that is sorely missing from today’s
so-called Rap music scene. Both G Snyder and AB Money address that fact
on their respective bars on “First Time Ever’.
G Snyder, delivers
a flow that is steady, deliberate and precise. He boasts a confidence
that cannot be denied on this track. AB Money is a musical veteran who
has run in the circles with the late Tupac Shakur, Biggie Smalls and a
host of other prominent DJs in the Rap arena. His veteran stance on the
record is quite clear; artists need to get it together because AB Money
will show you how it’s really done.
Together with the authentic
Hip-Hop track that is constructed by Fantom, this record is already a
favorite amongst Mixshow DJs and Hip-Hop Radio. So take a look at
“First Time Ever” over here on YouTube!!! Give us a “thumbs up” because
we know that you will love it!!!
It was truly an honor to rock stages all across Canada with Celph Titled and Apathy, CB Smooth, FNX, Suave_Ski, Freeze, and NME The Illest.
Going through all the footage and editing several videos I will release shortly. If you haven't yet check out some of my highlights from the first half of the tour....MORE COMING SOON!!
HANDS DOWN one of my favorite artists from CT, Charlie Tanqueray, just released his latest album "No Going Home"!
I can't wait to bang this album front to back, I suggest you do the same. One of the most creative and inspiring artists i've met. He does the production, he writes his music, he performs his music, he records and engineers himself and has without question one of the highest quality sounds in the state. When you speak of creative genius, it is this type of person you speak of. If your not a fan, get in the know, your missing out!
