"You never choose your name, the name chooses you. You just have to be yourself and whatever relates to who you are as a person determines your name.

"I play live any chance I get at any venue that's available. There's nothing like playing live because you can actually vibe off the audience. When your in the studio you have to radiate your own vibe but when the crowd is riding the wave it just recipricates. Every moment is a special moment."

"The internet effects the music industry drasticly. For independent artist it's harder to be heard being that the market is flooded with music. The internet gives everyone an oppertunity to eat at the table and takes away the hard drive of artist that actually had to grind to be heard. It's also a good thing because those that paid their dues no longer have to wait for that Major Label to sign them. Artist can market their own music on a lower budget with the same aspects of those with a lot of money."

"Who wouldn't sign a deal. It all depends on if the contract can benefit you as an artist. This a pimp, h** industry and all deals aren't good deals."

Chawly RocWel has been terrorizing stages since the late 90's as a member of the KGB. Only recently has he decided to venture off to the left and go solo. He's still currently a member of the KGB and plans on recording more albums with them. He started rhyming at the age of 12 freestyling and battling with local artist. RocWel picked up producing around 98' and since has been lacing tracks for local and regional artists.

"My musical influence is music itself. There's numerous musicians that inspire and too many to name. I like hip hop, jazz, blues, rock and roll, r&b, soul, electronica, etc. I like to listen to music and I don't like to catergorize it because inspiration can come from any where.

"My favorite spot is the studio because I release a lot of my stress on my tracks."

I got an appetite for rhythm music's food for the soul// and it flows through my veins and sets the mood in my pulse// i inhale and my heartbeat echoes through my bones// and the melody is layered through the skin with the tones// and it moves me deep through the flesh and the muscle// i exercise my mind cuz i was blessed with the hustle// from the roots of ancestors that did their best through the struggle// i speak freely there's no reason to speak easy// i spread the wealth there's no reason to be greedy// cuz knowledge is priceless you betta know what your right is// i gotta keep it righteous and inspire your mind and keep your soul enlightened// what's music to you?// is it the jazz, be-bop, hip hop or the blues// soul, rock and roll or the 70's funk// we can connect on 1 thing no matter where we're from// and that's music.......
