What is your sound like?
It's diverse, because the vocal part is more hip-hop/R&B sounding, and the lyrics are fit for a pop song, I suppose, and the beats are a mixture of everything (a little bit of country/pop/hip-hop/R&B).

What are words of encouragement that you would like to give to others "trying to make it"?
Basically, if you want it that bad, then don't stop. Keep pushing, keep trying, and never give up. If someone tries to tell you that you're not good enough, just ignore it. Focus on the positive aspect of your talent, and follow your heart.

Who are your musical idols/inspirations?
It ranges with Faith Evans, 98 Degrees, Boyz II Men, The Judds, Patsy Cline, Whitney Houston, Kelly Price, Mary J. Blige, Lauryn Hill.. The list goes on and on.

Let's Pretend: Your have finally made it! You have just been signed to that dream record company. What would your album be named and why?
I would probably call it "My World" or something like that. Probably because of the fact that my music is my world. When you hear me sing, or hear one of my songs, you're hearing ME. It's not some guy who wrote this song, or artificial vocals. It's all real, and it's all about my world, and real life.

And what would the first single be called and why?
I wrote a song called "The Fall" which is basically about making a mistake and pressin' on. I think that young adults need to hear inspirational lyrics and stuff, something positive with a deep message that will really make them think. I mean, yeah, it's fine if you're Britney Spears, but what are you saying to girls by telling your man to "hit me one more time?" *Laughing Good Naturedly* I think that it would either be "The Fall" or one called "If You Wanna Get Down" which is another one I wrote about a phat party. So, *smiling* it would all depend on the mood I was in when I discussed it.

We would probably name it *CLIQUE*--R*U*Ready...because we're trying something new and we hope people are ready for us. Our first single would be R U Ready, becauseit is like 'we're here..are you ready for us' and thats basically what the song is about.

CARMA's album would probably be called something like 'CARMA--Bring it on or something along those lines , but not exactly! Because it will really catch the listeners eye. And our first single would have to be either 'Bring On the Pain' or 'Sittin' Here' (our originals) because it shows that we can write and sing our own music well.

Well, we'd probably call it Bittersweet Reality, it kinda makes sense to make the first album self-titled. And for the single...hmmm...we're thinking either "Give It A Chance" or "Stars" or we dunno...*lol* perhaps "Just Imagine" or "Reality"...we're thinking!!!!

Well, since it would be a debut it would be self titled ("Tears"). I don't know what the first single would be called really...something with the word "Angel" in it, mostly because every song with the word "Angel" in it is a good song, haha, I dunno!

Lucky for us, we've got it all planned out. Our album would be called "No Comment" because it's a phrase all of us overuse. Our first single would be our own song, "Dazed and Shaken." We all love the song and sing it all the time. Thanks!

If we had made it BIG, our first album would be self-titled 'Flava' because it will a summary of our whole career, and because that album will be introducing us to the world.
