Interview w/ Brian Angel of Day 26

How’s your been going day thus far?

good just got out the gym working out like a slave

Great to see that you value the importance of staying in shape. Can you tell us a bit about you guy’s upcoming album?

i can’t really speak to much about it but we do have a new single “MADE LOVE LATELY” OUT RIGHT NOW AND ON ITUNES.

Great song I might add. Will you guys be filming a music videos for either this track or any other potential single?

WE ACTUALLY FILMED IT 2 DAYS BEFORE CHRISTMAS IT’S GONNA BE KRAZY!!!!!!!!!

I know you can’t speak much on the album but what’s the major difference between this album and your previous ones?

THIS WE TOOK IT BACK TO THE 90S

Taking R&B back to the good ole days? Did you have any favorite artists from those days who you drew inspiration from?

JODECI, BOYS 2 MEN, DRU HILL, GUY, THE LIST GOES ON,,,,,,,,,,,,,

So is it safe to say that Day26 is trying to revive the true R&B genre? Do you feel that the genre needs to be revived?

NO WE’RE JUST DO WHAT “WE” FEEL LIKE IS GOOD R&B THERES SO MUCH GOOD R&B OUT NOW

Day 26 started on one label and are now on a different label(Atlantic), how have you felt being a part of another label?

we love Atlantic records they welcomed us with open arms. We’re still Kool with Diddy to, and yes I started my own label Ambassador Way Entertainment (AWE)

You read my mind haha, How did you go about starting your label? Who we should look out for?

well I started it back in 2005 after I left Music World Music/ beyonce’ fathers label. I have any incredible roster but my first artist I’m releasing is @TheRealGRON he’s a hip hop artist from Houston, Tx

Almost done here! How much pressure is there on you guys for this new album?

not to show cocky but none we feel like we have amazing fams (fans) that support us in everything we do I anxious

What advice would you give to any artist Male or Female trying to make it? What do they need that these labels are looking for?

I would say Always keep god first anything is possible with him. I’d also say learn the business before trying to get in it. Educate yourself on what your about to embark on. Everything isn’t what it seems. Prepare your self mentally, physically and always come with 100% or don’t come at all

I appreciate the time that @MrAngel_day26 put forth for this Twitterview. I want to thank you for time, I understand that you’re busy working on something special with the guys. It was an honor to conduct this twiitterview with you

thank you

Interview w/ Short Dawg

Earlier today I had the privilege of doing a Twitterview with the artist, Short Dawg. I may possibly be bringing you guys a ton of Twitterviews over the next week or so. They aren’t as in depth as my typical interviews but check them out on Twitter when you can.

What will Elvis freshley bring to the table that you as an artist have not done already?

I feel like the elvis freshley project is full of bigger mainstream songs.. I expanded my focus from just rapping to makin music

It was rude of me to not start with the fact that your birthday recently passed. Happy BDay!. Did you do anything special?

its all good. Preciate ya! I just kicked it with my homeboys I grew up with. Had fun tho

Great to hear! What inspires you to record a track?

the beat itself

Who has given you the most useful advice in regards to pursuing a music career?

my brother mega and my big homie street lord juan were the main people I’d take advice from because they were successful in life

You’ve released quite a few mixtapes which I encourage everyone to download. Do you have a personal favorite? if so why?

I’d have to say southern flame spitta vol 1 and drankenstein just because of the work I put in and the response they received

You recently put your own touch on “The Motto”, How does it feel to be a young money artist? any pressure?

no pressure just keeps me motivated to work hard

What are you doing when you aren’t recording?

hoopin or watching movies

What do you think of this current miniature feud between Drake and Common?

its unnecessary

If you could work with any artist right now, who would it be?

People’s Choice Awards Recap

In case you did not watch, last night was the People’s Choice Awards. Even though Rihanna was not at the award show,( she was across the street at the exciting Clippers/Heat game), she won the award for “Favorite R&B Artist”. The show hosted by Kaley Cuoco(The Big Bang Theory) saw big winners such as Katy Perry, Johnny Depp, and Emma Stone. The Harry Potter franchise took home four awards, which is only second to five taken home by Katy Perry. The big surprise, for me would be the fact that Chloe Moretz(Let Me In) beat out the four principle actors of the Harry Potter movie franchise for favorite actor under 25. She has a ton of potential and carries herself in ways many young females her age do not. Congratulations to all the winners and the remainder of the nominees.

Some of the winners from last night were:

Kim Kardashian-Favorite TV Celebreality Star

BridesMaids-Favorite Movie

2 Broke Girls-Favorite New TV Comedy

Demi Lovato-Favorite Pop Artist

Taylor Swift-Favorite Country Artist

Pretty Little Liars-Favorite Cable TV Drama

Check out more official winners from last night’s show.

Jay-z Releases Track Celebrating Fatherhood

Just 48 hours after becoming a father, Rap Mogul Jay-z released a track titled, Glory which is celebrating fatherhood and the birth of his daughter. This track is produced by the Neptunes. I doubt anyone was expecting a track from either parent so soon, but I must congratulate Jay-z for taking this step.
