Prince Sole Interview
Tell us about yourself. Whats your name? Where are you from?
-Prince Sole... (Previously known as "Young T The Prince" but Young T The Prince was something i wanted to be.. wasn't speaking from my heart.. so its time for a change..) I'm from San Jose,CA but living in LA now..
What does the word "based" mean to you?
-Based to me means jus being your own person.. doing what you love and not caring what anyone else thinks about it.
How did you get into the music industry? What inspired you?
-I Started making beats and networking when I was 18, teamed up with Damey from the Diligentz and he basically helped me out with everything.. Started writing songs and taking it serious about a year ago.. Basically Music has been in my family for generations and it was something i always loved so started messin around with Fruity Loops one day and jus started advancing to Cuebase, Logic, Pro Tools, and Reason.. and its been history ever since
What upcoming projects are you working on?
-Im currently working on my "singles" that are upcoming.. have one called "All Day Lover" featuring ACE from the Graduates (Shoutout to Indie-Pop) dropping at the end of May.. So make sure to call in to ur local radio stations and vote for that wen song is released.. and basically just going to keep releasing music to the fans until one really pops off..
Are there any artists out there you would like to work with, but haven't got the chance yet?
-Ryan Leslie, hes my inspiration in a lot of the type of music im droppin within the next few months.. Trying to bring R&B and Hip-Hop Together in a different way then before.
Who are your favorite artists right now?
-Lets see, Ryan Leslie, Drake, Fabolous, Pac Div, and Musiq Soulchild, they all inspire my music
What are some things that people don't know about you?
-I like country music, ahahah I feel if more artists would learn from country artists and learn their teqniques of song writing we would have more respect in the music industry as "Hip-Hop" artists..
Whats some advice you can give the people that want to get into the music industry?
-Just keep grinding, dont rely on other people to do things for you. You have to do everything yourself now a days. Let your fans decide whats good and whats not, dont listen to people that are "hating" cuz they can effect the music ur making.. Stay true to yourself..

Boogie Interview
Tell us about yourself. Whats your name? Where are you from?
-What's cool? What's cool? I'm Boogie The opposite of the cliché Southern rappers, and I hail from Meridian, Mississippi.
What does the word "based" mean to you?
-Simply, it means “good, comfortable in your own skin. Being able to do whatever you want.”
How did you get into the music industry? What inspired you?
-I started drawing and painting at an early age. Growing up around all types of artists, and watching them express themselves with words, pencils, and canvases and seeing all they could create pulled me into the lifestyle. Later, that changed with freestyle cipher. I ended it with a gang of new fans and friends. The rest is a blur.
What upcoming projects are you working on?
-I am working on a dope free EP. Follow me on Twitter for updates
Are there any artists out there you would like to work with, but haven't got the chance yet?
-The collaboration process with me is totally different. Instead of working with an artist based on popularity, I would rather work based on our chemistry — to actually make good music. Having a cliché, big name feature can and would overshadow you. I've seen it done numerous times.
Who are your favorite artists right now?
-Curren$y, Dom Kennedy, J. Cole, Cudi, Wale, Stalley, Lupe, Common, Outkast, Idle Warship, Gorillaz; the list goes on for ages.
What are some things that people don't know about you?
-They will know everything in due time.
Whats some advice you can give the people that want to get into the music industry?
-Stay humble, and keep to your craft
