For most artist just getting signed alone to a label is enough these days but not for Torch. After being signed Torch applied the same grind and hard-work that got him to where he’s at now and started working on the highly awaited Triple C’s album and well as his solo and on his own label Specialyst Entertainment. I recently sat down with his first artist Sinsay out of the Bronx and got a first hand interview to find out everything from what he feels he’s bringing new to the game, what projects he’s working on to why he feels he’s Next In Line and why the world needs to take notice!
24: Introduce yourself to everyone and let them know where your repping?
Sinsay: What up world! I go by the name Sinsay and I’m repping Specialyst Entertainment as well as the Bronx, NY from 174Th Street to Castle Hill projects.
24: What do you feel you’re bringing to the game with your music?
Sinsay: I’m just me! I don’t claim to be the new coming! But, in a time of two-second nursery rhymes, I’m bringing two elements back to Hip-Hop that’s been missing for a long time along with quality and consistency.
24: Who are some artists that you would say influence you musically?
Sinsay: Tupac was my biggest influence in Hip-Hop, but my music taste is eclectic.I listen to all kinds of music R&B, Pop, and even Rock.
24: Tell about some of the projects you’re currently working on?
Sinsay: Where do I start? At the moment I’m working on a few mix tape projects. As we speak I’m headed to the studio to work with DJ Bedtyme on a project (untitled). I’m organizing the first of a series of concert showcases titled “The Rebirth of Hip-Hop” hosted by NYC’s DJ Envy and rotating celebrity hosts. These events will allow unsigned talent with an established fan base to come and perform for industry insiders and fans while raising funds and awareness for various non- profit organizations. The 1st event will be held on January 28th 2009 at Don Hills New York City, 511 Greenwich Street. (For additional information: specialystthemovement@gmail.com). In addition to putting out my next music video called GET MONEY in early 2009. I’m getting it in, on the road performing, interviews etc. I can’t even keep up (lol).
24: Who are some of the producers you have been working with and who would you love to work with in the near future?
Sinsay: I’ve been blessed to work with some of the most creative people in the game. Shot Outs to 3rd Month Music Group and Equalisaz (My in house production team). Drawzill, Carlito & Vinny, William Gone, Dunlap Exclusive, Masspike Miles, Nottz and many more. In the future I look forward to working with Timberland, Neptunes and Just Blaze. If you’re creative I want to work!
24: Beside yourself who else would you say is Next In Line to Come out of the Bronx that the readers may not know about?
Sinsay: Look out for Torch (of Triple Cs/Specialyst Entertainment- Maybach Music).
24: What should the readers look out for from you in the near future?
Sinsay: Look out for the new EP Industry In The Streets coming real soon. More classics, video’s, mix tapes, show dates etc. 2009 Sinsay/Specialyst Ent. Real talk!
24: How can someone find out more about to and check out your music?
Sinsay: Right here on 24HourHipHop.com as well as www.sinsay.wordpress.com. Google! (Laugh) Do a background check on Sinsay and just know that I’ve been grinding for years. I’m about getting up, getting out and getting something scream at me. And if you need further assistance you can hit up my publicist ariegoode@leira-pr.com or specialystthemovement@gmail.com. People can also check for my current video Do It Big all over the internet.
24: Is there anything you want to say to the readers?
Sinsay: Just thanks for all the love and support. Keep an eye out for Sinsay/Specialyst Entertainment in 2009 and beyond because sleep is for suckas!
