The Urban Twinz



1. Where are we talking from today?

A. We are talking from the Island of Barbados.

2. Where did you get your artist name from?

A. Our artist's name was created based on the genre of music we have chosen, our style of fashion & us being a twin.

3. Music wise what are you working on right now? Are you currently promoting a single or album?

A. We are currently promoting our new single and also working on our next music project which is scheduled to be released in August of this year. 

4. Who or what were the most significant influences on your musical life and career?

A. Firstly, we were influenced by the artist Rihanna who is also from Barbados and as teenagers watching her grow in the industry, we decided to pursue singing after realizing we also have a passion for it. As we began singing in the hotel circuit and at events, we were always encouraged to become independent artists. As we are from the Caribbean, we are also influenced by the artist Tyga, due to the style of music and videos he produces.

5. Who are your favorite musicians?

A. Our favorite musicians are Rihanna, Tyga, Migos, Cardi B & Gucci Mane.

6. What have been the greatest challenges/frustrations of your career so far?

A. Our greatest challenges are financing our music projects, finding the right streams to promote our music to America & the rest of the world and gaining global exposure. In Barbados, the culture is Soca & Calypso music, so it's very difficult to gain recognition as a HipHop/Rap, Pop or RnB artist while promoting your music here. This is why we would like to move to America where our music will be greatly supported.

7. As a musician, what is your definition of success?

A. Our definition of success as musicians is creating great music and doing what we love. Making money isn't our number one priority right now but in doing what we love, it will come. Living our dream as artists who are making a mark in the music industry is our true definition of success.

8. What is your idea of perfect happiness?

A. To us, there's no such thing as perfect happiness, however, happiness to us is becoming financially stable and becoming an award-winning artist someday.

9. What is your present state of mind?

A. Our present state of mind is working on writing and releasing new music. Our music is our number one priority and we are constantly researching new streams in which we can promote our music globally. This is our main focus.

10. What is your most treasured possession?

A. At this point we do not value material things, however, our phones and laptop would be considered our most treasured possessions as these are the devices we use every day to promote our brand as artists.

11. What do you enjoy doing most?

A. We enjoy performing (whenever we get the opportunity) and also creating vlogs and videos. We enjoy dancing and anything relating to entertainment. 

12. Where would you like to be in 10 years' time?

A. In 10 years, we would like to be successful artists in the industry and living our dream. We would also like to be able to travel the world someday. We would also like to have collaborated with our favorite artists and be known globally.

13. Where you @ online?

A. We are on Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, Spotify, Itunes & Soundcloud.

Eminem "Revival" Album Review

The best and worst Eminem record I've ever heard.  Album Rating 3 out of 4.  Song Rating System 4 out of 4 - Really liked  3 out of 4 - Liked  2 out of 4 - Didn't like  1 out of 4 - No response  "Revival" is the ninth studio album by American rapper Eminem . The album was released on December 15th, 2017 through Aftermath Entertainment , Shady Records , and Interscope Records . ( Wikipedia )  1. Walk On Water ( feat. Beyonce ) - 4 out of 4 - Probably will go down as one of the most underrated of Eminem's hits. The song encompasses all of the talents and personalities of one of this generations greatest artist. Unlike some of his prior works, the song is not set on a grand stage but a simple piano-driven beat with raw, honest lyrics and a beautiful hook from Beyonce. 2. Believe - 2 out of 4 - It's interesting to hear Eminem switch it up and rap over more trap-like beats. Honestly, he does it better than most of the yo...

Interview with The Forgotten 45's

1)  Where are we talking from today? A. At rehearsal, in a windstorm without power in Olympia, Washington trying to type by candlelight. 2)  How did you get involved in music? A. We are a team of 5 summoned by lord Zordon. Nolan (singer) Nolan's parents both had an appreciation for music and had him singing before he could properly form sentences. Introducing to him the music of the Beatles, Beach Boys, and Michael Jackson. Not much has changed, including his ability to properly form sentences or lack thereof. Cos (bassist) Cos's father was a strong influence in his musical career. Starting at age 7, he taught him how to play guitar, and encouraged him to play in the school jazz band from middle school through high school. At age 16, he got Cos a job playing bass at a local church. Cos met Michael during his freshman year at St. Martin's University, and that summer the band known as String Theory was formed, which has slowly transformed into The Forgotten 45...

13 Questions With J Curly Speegle

1. Where are we talking from today?      A. I'm in Nashville, TN 2. Where did you get your artist name from? A. I was the lead guitarist for Rock & Roll Hall of fame Leon Russell from 2005 to 2007.  When I joined the band I had long curly hair.  Leon mentioned to me after a couple of gigs that he thought that  "I ought to have a power name".  Hence that day, I became J. "Curly" Speegle...  He was big on that sort of thing.  His real name was Claude Russell Bridges, so it kinda made sense. 3. Music wise, what are you working on right now? A. I'm actually on a hiatus at the moment.  I started touring at 19 or 20 and stayed there for a lot of years, so I'm just enjoying a little downtime... 4.

Well, Leon Russell obviously.  But there are a lot more that are pretty significant as well.  There is a gentleman by the name of Owen...
