Stamina: It’s the
most anticipated name in music right now “10 + 5
Ways To Get Rich” and everybody needs to get it.
Summer 2007 if you
ask me.
Jesie Simpson: How long has
BelizeanArtist.com been around?
Stamina: I think
since 2002 and September should mark four years?
Jesie Simpson: Who is the biggest Artist
you know on BelizeanArtist.com?
Stamina: I would
say Lisa Tucker.
Jesie Simpson: Who are some of your
favorite artist right now?
Stamina: Right now
I’m feeling the few people I see making big
moves and we know who they are. That’s who I
want to be like. The type that don’t wait for
things to happen.
Jesie Simpson: What was the reason for
canceling the last BelizeanArtist.com Concert?
Stamina: We were
having problems securing a venue suitable for
the audience we attract and by the time we came
back from Belize the one we were closest to
getting didn’t work out.
Jesie Simpson: Do you think that Belizean
Entertainers take their talents seriously?
Stamina: I would
say maybe not because I don’t think that any of
us has seen someone we know make it to BET or
even get a record deal.
Jesie Simpson: How discouraging is that?
Stamina: Well its
only discouraging if you’re one of the many
people believing you’re not going to make it.
Then you stop talking the talk and walking the
walk but it’s more discouraging when you see
people with more talent than you call it quits.
Then you start thinking well if they can’t make
it then “how can I”?
Jesie Simpson: What can you say about
Belizean people?
Stamina: We love to
representing. Whenever you see the flag you
know we’re in the building. Say Belize and we
get louder than loud.
Jesie Simpson: What’s the most encouraging
signs for Belizeans in music right now?
Stamina: Well we
have a couple of movements going on around the
country especially in New York, Miami and Los
Angeles where we keep it pushing.
Jesie Simpson: Belize is more know for
Punta and some Reggae and Soca. What about Rap
and the other genre’s of music?
Stamina: As far as
Rap music I can tell you about the people out
here in the west like States Da Name, Get Bent,
Falken August, Snowman Cliq and Thug Angelz. Their going for
theirs. Aside from that Lisa Tucker is doing it
big time with singing.
