Featured artist: KINGWEEZY - KINGWEEZY to GIVE fans THE ”REAL DEAL”
Below is a short interview with the upcoming underground artist KINGWEEZY.
How did you decide to become an artist?
KINGWEEZY: Kingweezy jumps into the rap game full fledge when he realized that all the music that mainstream radio was playing was ”Garbage”, as he blatantly put it in our one on one interview…
stating, ”I just don’t get what they are trying to promote nowadays because it sure isn’t hope, prosperity, or knowledge at all.” I can vividly remember one Saturday sitting at home listening to the radio and actually taking a tally on how many times 1 song was played within a 2 hour time span, and the song wasn’t even good!! Growing up with a wide range of music and having a tough child hood seems to go hand and hand, so much so that you can actually sit and pin point the exact songs that helped you through tough times, made you sad during the happy times, and actually educated you when there seemed to be no one else around to do so…Artist such as Tupac ,Elton John, Del La Soul, Eric Clapton, Michael Jackson, James Brown, Anita Baker, Boyz 2 Men, Kenny G, and even newer artist such as Emenim ,Ludacris, Sherly Crow, Alicia Keys,…I mean there are still some great teachers and educators, it’s just unfortunate that they’re an endangered species…And this is where I come in to provide a growth gene or stem cell (if you will) to a dying DNA strand that must live on to give the up and coming generations something healthy, strong, vibrant, entertaining, but most importantly hope.
One of my favorite quotes is by Emily Dickenson where she says, Hope is the thing with feathers that perches in the soul, and sings the tune without the words and never stops at all. I feel that she was describing a void that must be fulfilled through todays music, and why shouldn’t I provide that need If I posses the capability?
Be Sure and look out for Kingweezy’s 4 Part Music Series entitiled: ”Slept On”!!!!
1.”Slept On” ((complimentary here on Soundcloud))
2.”Slumber Summer”
