Ready Roc and Sammie SoS, Music Artists - Videography

They are brothers that come from a big family based in Lansing, and through the noise and temptation of Lansing streets they both have grown into skilled rap artist - and a steady creative mind behind the camera in the case of Sammie. Using rap as their music vehicle, they have brought creativity to the forefront of the streets language. You can see that creativity on full display in Ready Roc's rap reproduction of The Gap Band's "Outstanding"*. You can check that on Youtube, same place you can check out Sammie SoS's rap and video work.*
Sammie addressed the drive to be creative behind the mic and the lens: "One thing that gives me drive when I'm in the booth, is being in the booth alone and creating off of vibes and emotions that I'm feeling at the time.. When I'm behind the lens it drives me to learn how an artist should appear on camera"
