Screwston: Woodgrain & Candy Paint

KB DA KIDNAPPA Interview (throwback from 2006)

TB: Tell me about the history of Street Military?

KB: Street Military started back in the 90's. I was the baby of the group and the last member. How we got started was at a talent show on the northside of Houston at a club called Charlemagne. The club was holding a talent show. Myself, Flea, Icy and Pharaoh went in and entered the contest. We won a couple of times. After the contest ,we bumped into a couple of other winners who won before us, and they invited us out to the recording studio. They were working for Gerrord Records, a label we eventually signed to. The bonding with all of us in the studio, we created a group and named it Street Military.

TB: Z-RO was around ya'll at that time?

KB: Yeah, Z-RO was around. He was around in the sense of being in the background listening and being raised (learning the process). Street Military put out their first record in 1991. The first single was called "Episode" and the B-Side had "That's The Type I Am".

TB: Did it do good in the streets?

KB: Yeaaah.. it did awesome in the streets. As soon as that record came out, big funds started rolling in. That's what got us big recognition, the streets was recognizing us as being real. It had messages that they could relate to. People in Mississippi  , Louisiana, Florida didn't knew who we were, but the could relate to it. Our lyrics were about struggle , hitting the block to get ends to feed our kids ect.. Stuff the hood could relate to.

TB: What part of the northside of Houston are you from?

KB: I'm from Trinity Gardens

TB: So you all knew the Trinity Garden Cartel?

KB: Yeah, we grew up with them. As a matter of fact Mike D of Trinity Garden Cartel produced 3 or 4 cuts for my new album.

TB: Were you guys cool with Rap A Lot Records?

KB: I've always been cool with Rap A Lot. I always bump into Tony "Big Chief" Randle and J Prince. When i was young, i dreamed of being on Rap A Lot. I think everybody at that time was looking to be on Rap A Lot. Pimp C even mentioned me and Street Military a lot on his Pimpilation DVD. Cats in the street would wish me well to restart my career.

TB: The Source Magazine mentioned Street Military in their Texas issue.

KB: See that's the thang mayne. When you make real music that's talking about something real it seems to last longer. Even new heads ask us when is Street Military coming back out. We may have been down for a minute but never out the game..

Trae ALBUM Review: Tha Truth

I bought Trae's Restless album when he was on Rap A Lot. The first song on that album had me hooked. It took me a minute to realize that Trae is my new favorite MC (along with his Z-RO)
Trae to me is what Project Pat was to Static Major. This OG brings that heat for the streets with a smooth flow the ladies dig, and the community can relate to.

"Trickin Every Car I Get" is a hot single. Sonny Digital made the beat (my hat goes off to you). It sounded like a leftover beat from Jay Z's MCHG. Boosie tells the world "WE SOME STRAIGHT GETO BOYS" . This and H-Town classic. On "I Don't Give A Fuck" , Trae brings that sing-song genius like his cuz Z-RO . I told RO that their hooks is infectious, smooth and Grammy worthy if they wrote for people outside of Hip Hop and Rap. "Doin Me" talks about not listening to these lames about what they gonna do, but neva do, or do some shady shit. Trae, Nipsey and Lil Bibby bring that Twenty 90's flow to this beat. Grand Hustle Hustle Gang  got the ladies hooked on this "Late Night King" track featuring Jeremih , TI, and Ty Dolla Sign. Every queen from their stable is being celebrated in pimptastic fashion. Lastly, "Children Of Men" a track that the community can relate to (especially on Trae Day) . It talks about the struggles of everyday life. Of course with every struggle is a solution and instinctual way to make a situation evolve into something better. Trae loves and cares about his community, and he shows it on this joint.
Overall this album is great. It has a few fillers, but what album doesn't. Trae showcases his versatility and creative genius all the time. Every album is different in lyrics, composition and style. A plan most artists don't use. This is why Trae has longevity and legendary status. MC's take note.

THE MIX AVENGERS CREW: Aaliyah Archives, Musiq Man. Ikieya

Inet 6 WSTR Radio 17th Year Anniversary

1. Tell me a little about who Neezy and Kee are?

Neezy & Kee is a female pop act, born in New Hampshire but raise in Salem, Mass.
We're half sisters, who grew up in the same house raised by our mother. Neezy is the older sister, she is half Italian/half Puerto Rican. Kee is the younger sister, half Italian/half Cape Verdean . Neezy is the hardcore funky rapper MC. Kee is the sweet innocent edgy song singing vocalist

2. Who are your musical influences?

Our musical influences range anywhere from Aaliyah, TLC, Michael Jackson, & Salt N Pepa

3. What was the process like recording your first EP (studio, writing, recording ect..)

Its not easy ill tell you that. It takes a lot of work and focus. It all starts with the beat we all have a writing session and talk about the topic of the song and the things that we are trying to say. From there we come up with a catchy hook and Kee would lay down the main vocals. For the verses Neezy would come back to the studio and show what she has for the song and Nazz Travagant would guide her to make sure the flow was delivered perfectly. After the hook and verses are recorded we all would give ideas on what ad-libs needed to be added to give the song more feeling and fullness.

4. Who are the producers on the EP?

The main producer on our Its Takes Two EP Is Nazz Travagant  with additional production by D-Nero & Mr.Frost

5. I see you were selling music on the street, Do you find that more beneficial than having a company distribute it? And tell me some stories about the people you sold to?

We find selling our music helps create a fan base. Not everyone gets to meet the artists that they listen to. Our method gives people an opportunity to get to know us on another level that company distributing doesn't provide.

Our favorite is when little kids buy our cd! We had a time when we were selling our music and a little girl came up to us and asked us if we were singers, we told her yes and she got all excited she came back with 3 of her friends and they all bought our EP with their own money. We took pictures with them and singed their cd's. It was a great feeling how happy and excited they all were. 

6. Any shows coming up?

Yes! We are on a school tour called the Pace Tour. Pace stands for Promoting Academics Through Creative Expression, Keeping kids in school and also anti -bullying.

7. Do you plan to tour or open up for anybody?

We would love to open up for someone but no plans as of now. 

8. Any podcast or radio appearances?

 we are planing on it very shortly.

9. What are the future goals for Neezy & Kee?

We are woking on a Neezy&Kee clothing line. A collection of t-shirts and tank tops.  We would love for that to go global. As for our music career  we would love to win awards and keep our act going for years to come!

10. Lastly, what advice would you give to other artist about trying to come up in the game?

Believe in yourself, confidence is everything! Never let anyone tell you that your dream is too big, you can achieve anything if you work hard!  Were living proof! Keep going and never give up no matter how long it takes. It will pay off.
