In his own words:
MY NAME IS TOMMY BUHAMA, I'M A HIP HOP RECORDING ARTIST FROM THE BRONX, NEW YORK. A REAL FACT ABOUT ME IS I DON'T EAT MEAT ON TUESDAYS AND THURSDAYS.
I'VE BEEN ENTERTAINING NOW FOR A MINUTE, BUT REALLY I'VE BEEN TAKING HIP HOP MORE SERIOUSLY FOR ABOUT 3 YEARS NOW. THE FIRST PROJECT I RELEASED WAS A MIXTAPE LAST SUMMER CALLED "HURRICANE SEASON: ANDREW"
SINCE THE 5TH GRADE I'VE DREAMED ABOUT BEING A RAPPER. IT WASN'T UNTIL I WAS 20 WHEN SOMEONE TOOK ME SERIOUS ENOUGH THAT I DECIDED TO TAKE MUSIC MORE SERIOUS.
I'M PROUD OF THE RESPONSE MY "HURRICANE SEASON" PROJECT RECEIVED. A NICE CROWD CAME OUT TO THE RELEASE PARTY, A FEW DOWNLOADS ,A FEW LISTENS ON THE INTERNET. IT ALSO GAVE ME A REFERENCE POINT WHEN TALKING TO EXECS.
I'M THE MOST COOL HEADED PERSON IN THE WORLD. I TAKE PRIDE IN THAT. PEOPLE ALWAYS SAY I'M APATHETIC, OR THAT I'M TOO LAID BACK. I JUST STRONGLY BELIEVE THAT THE WORLD IS GOING TO BEND OVER BACKWARDS JUST TO STRESS YOU OUT, WHY WOULD YOU HELP IT?
I'M STILL LEARNING A LOT ABOUT THE INDUSTRY AND ABOUT ENTERTAINMENT IN GENERAL. BUT IF I WERE TO GIVE SOMEONE ELSE ADVICE IT WOULD BE TO SET REALISTIC AND ACHIEVABLE GOALS. YOU CANT GO WRONG IF YOU SET A
GOAL, AND STICK TO IT, YOU'LL EVENTUALLY BE GOOD.
I HAVE A FEW DIFFERENT COMPONENTS TO MY LATEST PROJECT. MY TEAM AND I ARE JUST PUTTING EVERYTHING TOGETHER. YOU'LL SEE WHEN ITS READY TO BE REVEALED.
