the interview show: Yo! Majesty update

Shunda K is unstoppable! the interview show may be on holidays, but the interviews just keep on coming. Here is an update with Yo! Majesty furious frontwoman Shunda K.

the interview show: Is it true? Are Yo! Majesty done? I know you guys were dropped for your UK label Domino. What is going on?

Yo Majesty as you know it is over…I cant bac track. On anotha note, Shunda K keepin it movin as da origin and purpose of Yo Majesty must continue on through me. I created YM bac in 1998 as a solo artist and met da other 2 girls two and three years later, making it a group.

Now, the very essence of what YM was to bring to da people has been tainted and forgotten about thru all da drama. Dats da main reason I removed myself, not to mention the inhumane treatment I endured by peoples on da YM team…everybody deserves respect, no matter what!!!

the interview show: You guys (Shunda K, Jwl B, and sometimes Shon B) had such an explosive chemistry onstage. I know you and Yo! Majesty partner Jwl B have had a sometimes difficult working relationship. Can you talk a little bit about how things are right now?

I don’t speak to Jwl at all, Shon either. I have to move forward as people are put in your life for periods of time not forever…and dat was da case for those 2. The only thing in my life dats forever is God, my family, and my wife & children!!!

Im jus tryin to move forward because all da drama drained me emotionally, physically, and psychologically. Its been hard, but well worth it. My joy, happiness, and peace of mind is priceless…

the interview show:  Sounds like a bit of adversity has found its way into your life right now. Don’t let it stop you! You are so unique and excellent! Can you tell us the best pep talk someone in your life has given you?

Thanks for da encouragement and so throughout my life I have learned to encourage myself and dats da best pep talk Ive had thus far…encouraging myself.

the interview show: You and Peaches have collabourated on a Peaches mixtape. Can you talk about your perception of her work?

Buck Ya Like A Billionaire is da track I have wit Peaches and its on her album “I Feel Cream” as well. I really look up to Peaches. I found out who she was in 2007 when Yo Majesty was invited to appear in her video “My Dumps”. I really didnt get into her music until I went on tour wit her as Im my numba 1 fan.

Peaches is da shit and she’s definitely a leader on dis Earth. I mean, Peaches not only appeals to da caucasian race, but da shows were packed out wit black folk too…I was shocked.

I was also intrigued at how she rocs da mic and keeps da crowd movin…Peaches is da shit man, what else can I say!!!

the interview show: Did you get to meet her? Or was it an email thang? Was was the exchange like?

Peach sent me da track via da internet. She contacted my former booking agent and told him she wanted me to get on da track. I knew it was a big opportunity and kilt dat shit!!!

the interview show: You have released a lot of material recently. Can you give us the run down and tell us why you have decided to do this now?

I have always know dat I am destined for greatness and will do great things in dis Earth. It started wit da vision of Yo Majesty, which dats who I am. Now, however, I can still fulfill my destiny jus being myself…I dont have to have a title…jus call me Shunda K!!!

Earlier dis year I released Le Passion Yo! EP wit a Brooklyn based producer by da name of KOTCHY. It peaked at #22 on da CMJ Charts being a digital only release. I knew for a year or more dat YM wasnt gona work, so I had to start preparing myself for dat and my career.

All da music dat Ive released depicts what Ive been thru and am experiencing now. So, next up  is “The Best Eva Written…Outkast” where I use 19 OUTKAST instrumentals and come lyrically from da perspective of being da OUTKAST: gay, black, female…not to mention being bullied and picked on growing up!!! It features one of my former artist JERZY and is definitely food for thought and nourishment for da soul. God is love and I make it clear on dis project, denouncing all of da religious fables weve been taught growing up to keep us bound. It sets da captive free fa’sho!!!

Lastly, we have Shunda K Kollaborations and features 22 tracks and collaborations wit various artist Ive been working wit over da past couple years including The Pumpsta (NY), WeHaveLove (Sweden), DJ Deekline & PureSX (London), Raspberry Cocaine (LA), Cindy Wonderful of Scream Club (Berlin), and many more…

All my works can be downloaded for free at http://www.shundak.com.

the interview show: And of course we need to know where we can find you next!

Im waiting on CMJ to hit me back wit a confirmation as Im retracing da steps I took wit YM. Now, its about individuality and my destiny. Its Shunda K time!!!
