Lyrics excerpt from Shake That Boom:
All my ladies we got them all looking
Donât matter what size
Just matter how you cooking
Shipping that Cargo from London to Brooklyn
Cause all around the world
They love cushion for the pushing
The âShake That Boomâ music video was shot in the streets of Tokyo. Filled with body positivity and astounding dancing it's easy to get warped into the exhilarating vibes of the song and video. The video itself allows viewers to enjoy a personal mini rave right from their laptop, phone, or tv. The unconventional video proves Sandflower as a creative artist to have on your radar, and it doesnât seem like sheâll be stopping anytime soon.
âShake That Boom (Cargo Room) is the energy of undeniable self love - no - obsessive self confidence. This song is a sonic Ted Talk about revering the wonder that you - and the wonder that is your body. This is the song that plays in my head first thing in the morning when I look at myself first thing in the morning. This song is the aura that wraps around me when I saunter down Lafayette street in Soho and when I literally ran through the streets of Tokyo while filming the video. This song should come with a warning: If you listen to this while walking down the street this song will induce massive amounts of compliments, new friends and possible new opportunities.â
âA next-generation electronic pop anthem that cross-pollinates an Atlanta snare drum line, Caribbean dancing 808âs, sound design from a vintage Buchla modular synthesizer (true) and stadium-pulsing organs one might find in a Pete Townshend song (think âLet My Love Open The Doorâ). Fusing this altogether was the dynamic & hyper-surreal writing collaboration between Sandflower & D.O.E. (a.k.a. John Maultsby the artist who co-wrote Timbalandâs âThe Way I Areâ and Justin Timberlakeâs âSay Somethingâ). They took the listener, similar to the production itself, around the world for a body-positive message about âcargo roomâ and, of course, relentless boom shaking!â
Some of Sandflowerâs notable performances include Saturday Night Live (Dua Lipa), Moma Ps1, Opening for Lindsey Stirling, Curating and performing at The National Arts Club and her many performances at the iconic Susanne Bartch On Top in the Boom Boom Room at The Standard.
