Videos | Sammy Adams- Summertime
Posted by A on April 9, 2012
“Things up on the road and I seen up on the planes don’t compare to being with the homies some things never change.“
Sampling his own, “I Hate College” remix that catapulted him into superstardom, Sammy Adams is back with a new video montage shot with a super 8 camera that debuted on VEVO in anticipation of his major label release with Sony/RCA. While productions details are scarce, Sammy is rumored to be working with Pharrell. While in Dallas, we had the opportunity to listen to his highly anticipated “Only One” single, an insanely catchy anthem dedicated to finding that special someone. One thing is for certain, come album release time, Sammy Adams will deliver a project worth phoning home about.
Review | TimeFlies Take Dallas By Storm At The Palladium Ballroom [Exclusive]
Posted by A on March 27, 2012
“Who are you here for?” a Palladium parking attendant asks as I roll my window down slowly.
“Timeflies and Sammy Adams…”
“You’re going to have the park in the lot behind you. This is reserved for the artists.” We pay our obligatory ten dollars to park, and walk to the side of the Palladium where Jared Glick, Timeflies’s manager, asks us to meet him before sound check.
It’s 6:45, and there’s already a line of overzealous fans forming at the door in the hopes to see Timeflies up close and personal.
Five minutes later, Cal Shapiro one-half of Timeflies, appears wearing a black cardigan hoodie and Ray-Ban sunglasses, greeting us as he walks up to the door.

I caught up with Mike Stud while he was in Minneapolis, MN on his Toast To Tommy Tour. He has to be one of the chillest guys that I’ve met. He was down with all his fans at the show, and took time to meet pretty much everyone that wanted. Not only was Mike Stud an awesome dude but DJ Fader was as well. These two as a duo on the road are unbeatable. They know how to have a good time and that’s just what we did!

I also sat down with Mod Sun after the show. He was one of the opening acts and definitely “lived” it as he would say. He’s a great artist from Minnesota and definitely one of my favorite out right now. This interview was a bit out of control, but a great time nonetheless. Yes, I’ll admit we had more than one drink before we filmed this! It’s funny to see how my personality did a 360 in a matter of hours between filming these interviews. I brought up the topic of favorite upcoming artist(s) and it ended up turning into our favorite artists, haha. Shouts to Tayyib Ali, Sammy Adams, and Cam Meekins on this one!? Enjoy.
Shoutout to EXP Promotions and Freshletes!

With his pre-album mixtape in the rearview, Sammy is working diligently on his debut LP that is set to hit stores in 2012. Into The Wild garnered great success despite Sammy’s brief hiatus, reassuring his fans he is back working harder than ever to deliver a chart topping album. Sam’s camp put together a brief video highlighting five tracks off Boston’s America’s Boy’s mixtape with fresh new visuals to compliment them. In addition to plenty of new music, Sam is likely preparing for his spring tour which has not been officially announced yet, outside of his upcoming show at The Gramercy Theatre in NYC on March 16th. Stay tuned and be sure to cop Into The Wild [The Mixtape] if you haven’t already.
Videos | Sammy Adams Performs “Blow Up” on Conan
Posted by GMONEY on January 19, 2012
Making his first major television debut last night, Sammy Adams performed his hit single, “Blow Up” off his forthcoming album dropping this spring. While some had concerns over his brief musical lull, the Sony/RCA signee shows no signs of slowing down with his recent “Into The Wild” mixtape serving as an appetizer before the album. Let’s talk about the verse at the end though. And I quote:
“I went from Boston to Cali/went from Cali to Paris/now I’m killing on primetime don’t try to compare us/team Coco or nothing/so shout out to the family/and the audience hear me I got the heat like Miami/Chillin’ on Conan, we roll from Massachusetts/never been on late night but now I’m up on my music/this dude he’s interviewing/this much air it’s just stupid/so I had to come through it’s Conan O’Brian let’s do it/yeah!”
Anyone else would have stuck to the script. Anyone else would have been to scared to go outside the box on their first national television appearance. Just rollin’ like a boss. That’s why we’ll always support and respect Sammy Adams. He’s never afraid to roll the dice. This is why we’ve been preaching the Sammy Adams gospel since day one. As Sam continues his meteoric rise, don’t be surprised to see him at the top of the charts this year. 2012 could be his biggest year yet.

Sammy recently dropped the first single, “Blow Up”off his debut LP, since inking a major deal with RCA Records at Sony. A sprightly hook and verses his fans can relate to, Sam brings us back to the “I Hate College” days. Yes he has a fair amount of work to do to build himself back into the freshman that stunned the world with his debut EP release, but now with the proper tools in place I’m confident Sam’s going to be resurrecting his brand and reaching a new level of success. Sammy traced back his roots and found himself shooting this video in Allston, MA where he first started to “Blow Up”. Despite this being the first music video we’ve seen since “Still I Rise” with G. Curtis, this project encompasses every aspect necessary for national and international success and should kick start Boston’s Boy back onto the charts. No confirmed date yet for the album, but we can definitely expect a grade A projet in 2012.
