Can you tell us about your new album, is a totally r and b
album or a mix of every genre ?
capital femi; it is
definitely what it is; it is tittled the
year of r n b, you definitely get r and
b in different flavour, it is r and b been express my way, the way that I know
it, so that is what you expect from the album. A lot people would
expect you to give them a mix of other genre
going by what is prevalent in the music we hear today, why did you decide to stick to a
total r and b album ?
capital femi : because
you have to be who you are no matter what is going on, you have to always pave
your own lane, with GOD and people working hard all things are possible.
we have seen some of nigeria r and b acts
experiment with other genre just to stay relevant , what to you have to
say of this trend?
Capital femi;
everyone has to make their own choice, r and b is my thing, r and b is the thing that has moved me from the beginning, r
and b is in everything, is in hip hop,is
in pop, is in rock and roll music, r and b goes with other genre, it
depend on how you deliver.
most record label often compel their artiste to do the kind of music that is very
relevant at a particular period, where you ever pressurize rise to imbibe reigning music
trend ?
Capital femi; everything you
do is about making sales, whatever you do, you want to make money and take care of
yourself, my label took me knowing exactly what i am, knowing that I do r and
b.
How does it make you feel knowing that you are different from other acts
doing regular music.
capital femi : for me believe I am doing what i like doing and I
think everybody should be expecting it well, the album is exactly what
is it, the year of r and b.
A lot Nigerian acts are going
international, as someone coming from America, what is your take on the
this trend?
Capital femi the plan
was to start from home then definitely branch out, we are definitely looking at
that, i know things are definitely around the corner with us touching into the
international market with my music.
if you are going to do an international collaboration which artiste would you
love to work with ?
Capital femi ? they are a lot, on the hip hop
side, my favorite is jay z, if it has to be an r and b act, there is a few
people i love, all the way down to neyo, john legend, joe, it goes on and on
and on.
we know r
and b is a very a wonderful genre
how do you think r anb can compete favorably with other acts doing well in other genre of music
femi Capital : it is not just a good
brand, it is a great brand, the truth about is just that we have to keep
executing , the thing you do, do it well, the truth of the matter is, everybody
love is an r and b lover, you can go to the street and ask of r Kelly, donell
jones, joe, they know this guys, we just need to put our own r and b guy out there.
Capital
femi? r and b is not just a good brand, is a great brand, we artiste doing it just need to keep delivering good music, It is the production, people still listen to r and b, people listen to r kelly, neyo, go to the street they know all this guys.
what define a good r and b artiste ? any music you do from your soul, from your heart and
you talk from your soul, r and b talks
about relationship, talk about a lot of things that relate with people.
what do you thinks is responsible for the decline in r and b music there is no decline, we just need to improve on the production so the concept of the song we do meet with the production.
What kind of guy is capital femi ?
capital femi : capital
femi is a simple guy, love guy, loves doing what he loves to do which is r and b music .
why is most r and b
acts tagged cassonova ?
capital femi : capital femi is a love guy, he love love just like r and b acts love love
which artiste influenced your music ?
capital
femi : a of people influenced my music from micheal Jackson, brian mack knight to r
Kelly, donell jones, even tuface influence my music, I love old sound like
steven wonder, ojs, al green.
what would you love to see change about Nigerian music ?
CAPITAL FEMI we need to change the
structure, we need a structure where the artiste are been taking care of , the
music industry is a billion dollar empire, there is money to be made from
it, i think we just need to have the
right law for it.
where do you see yourself in the next few years?
CAPITAL FEMI :DOING MUSIC AND BEEN ON TOP OF IT
