He gives credit to his producer Mike G for helping him create his diverse sound, and his publishing team at Kingdom 2 Publishing Company and the marketing team at New Midwest Marketing have helped get the word out. Opening for Tech N9ne and DMX has given him even more recognition.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&#8216;I&#8217;m Paintin&#8221;, featuring Too Tone, is raw, but with a certain amount of gloss. It&#8217;s the first from his upcoming album. &#8216;From The Bottom Looking Up&#8217;, and is all about having the motivation to keep moving forward, no matter much you&#8217;re struggling &#8211; &#8220;don&#8217;t let your paint dry&#8221;. Too Tone, a friend of SugaKane&#8217;s cousin, provides a smooth flow, making it the perfect addition to Suga&#8217;s swag.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The music video for &#8216;I&#8217;m Paintin&#8221;, produced and directed by SPIZZBERG, sees SugaKane and his crew in Las Vegas, and the clip was set at The Cromwell Hotel and Casino. There&#8217;s a lot of paint, and painting, featured in the video: SugaKane literally gets brush and paints out, selling canvases from his hotel room to scantily clad satisfied customers; pay attention too to the graffiti, yet more works of art.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">SugaKane and his music can be found online on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.Twitter.com\/KaneMr52\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Twitter<\/a>.
