Tamika Scott New Single “Go Outside In The Rain”

“Go Outside In The Rain” is a remake of the 1990’s original by Milira. The multi-award-winning singer/songwriter told us she and her group members would sing this song at talent shows growing up and win. She added it to her Family Affair EP. You can watch the music video featuring her celebrity friends Trina Braxton and Patrice Lovely.

Learn the business. Study music. Intern at a studio or label and get hands-on training. Ask questions. There’s no dumb question except the question that’s not asked.
-Tamika Scott’s advice to new music artists

Tamika and her group Xscape were recently given the ICON Award for 25 years in the music industry from Black Music Honors. We asked her how did it feel to receive the honor and she shared an anecdote most artists endure in their hometowns. She describes, “To be honored at home [which] was the last place that showed us love. When we [first] came out we were getting love from California, from New York, from Chicago… Everywhere but [back] home in Atlanta didn’t show us love for our music.” Tamika was grateful and understands the need to break out elsewhere first then her hometown would praise her group’s successful work. She concludes, “So after all this longevity of being women in this business, it felt really good [to be honored in Atlanta].”

We recently interviewed Mrs. Scott and Young Niyah at the BET Hip Hop Awards. The Princess of the South had recently dropped her new single and music video for “Like Whoa!” She even told us how she became star-struck after meeting Lil Kim for the first time. Check out the interview below…
