| Question: |
I was drawn to you guys by "Keep the Funk Alive"
being that you seem to have been grown from the same
tree as me, why is it so important to keep the funk
alive?
|
| Answer: |
Man let me tell you!!! I have a 12yr old son and last
year was his first time learning to play Trumpet in
his school. This year they pulled it. So now he has
no music education offered in his school. So just as
the dinosaurs were made extinct....if we're not
careful, so will FUNK. If you think about it. How
many Funk bands do you hear on the radio or see on MTV
or even BET?....Right!!! Not a single one. That's
why Jp Delaire & myself wrote "Keep The Funk Alive".

| Question: |
Tell people why they should give "One Blu Sho0" a
listen? |
| Answer: |
We offer that old school vibe with a new school thang.
Our music talks about real life situations that
people can relate too. From being a single mom in
"Appreciated" to making better choices after being
incarcerated in "Lil Miss Sunshine". Across the board
it's all about life through music, and music through
life. |
