Chris J Watson
What up to all the people who are down with the real music. Soul music. The music that speaks truth without compromise. The harmonies and melodies of life that I live for. My music comes from MY LIFE. I'm not from the hood, so my lyrics aren't street (though my beats tend to knock). All I can sing is what I've been through, heard of, or witnessed.
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
I've done alot of performing within the last two years. Mostly talent competitions and expos with a few big gigs here and there (B5 concert,Apollo, Scream Tour).
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
I love playing live. It's a whole different experience of creating music. I love the feedback I get from the audience. It's a great feeling when people relate to your music.
Your musical influences
That's a tough question, only because I'm so easily influenced when it comes to music. But, I'd have to say my biggest ones would be artist from the 60's and 70's like the Motown Crew, Bob Marley, Marvin Gaye, Aretha....I could go on for hours.
What equipment do you use?
An acoustic guitar and some home studio equiptment
Anything else?
Most definatley Big Ups to Missin Linq Productions. My mans Linq. My boy Stef (TDP Productions)Darrel "Kid Classic" Doswell (for lacin my beats). Tony Anderson, Nicole Butler, and Willa Pembleton for the support and exposure. And most importantly, THE MOST HIGH for the gift of life itself.
