24: How long have you
two been singing and how long have you been together as a group?
Ms.Concepcion: We
started about 7 years ago. We met through Tyna’s sister and instantly connected,
the chemistry was undeniable.
24: What are some of the
things you feel like you bring to the table as a singing group?
Ms.Concepcion: We bring
diversity, we like all types and genre of music so that’s exactly what you get,
a little bit of everything.
24: Who are some current
singers or groups that inspire you both?
Ms.Concepcion: Well, in
the car CD player we’ve been listening to the new Britney Spears album. The
production is amazing. We just enjoy the whole transformation music’s taking.
As far as singers that inspire us currently we would have to say we enjoy
Alicia Keys, Common, Kayne West, 50 Cent, T-pain, Lil Wayne, Brick and Lace,
Tessanne Chin, and a lot of reggae.
24: Describe your style
of music because I feel like it’s a mixture of Pop & R&B?
Ms.Concepcion: We would
have to say R&B, pop and reggae.
24: A lot of artist feel
like they deserve to be in the music industry but then when it comes to
actually making songs, networking, putting your own money into your on project
a lot of artist don’t want to put in the blood, sweat & tears so tell me
some of the things you have been doing in order to meet your ultimate goal?
Ms.Concepcion:
Everything possible to do. We try to find the best producers, I’m trying to get
on a bunch reggae riddims and mix tapes. Promote and networking on myspace and
other sites that help. Our goal is to make the best music people could relate
or just have a good time to.
24: What would be the
perfect situation for you as far as a record label right now?
Ms.Concepcion: Getting
signed isn’t where the dream ends, it’s where it begins. Being under a label
that will deliver my dream and not just sit us on the shelf, somewhere we can
call home.
24: Do you write as well
as sing because I know a lot of singers have songwriters that they go to?
Ms.Concepcion: I feel
like writing my own music makes it more personal, the song has more meaning.
Writing was our first passion and it’s how we express our feelings and overcome
situations.
24: Where should the
readers go to check out your music and find out more about you?
Ms.Concepcion: Right now

promote?

named…so stay tuned for that.
24: Any last words?
Ms.Concepcion: I just
want to thank the magazine for the love and this opportunity, and I say want to
leave you with that quote I read, Music washes away from the soul the dust of
everyday life. -Berthold Auerbach.
