Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
The name 'Dr. Bling' came from an assignment, based on promoting a made up artist. Our group got dealt the rap artist, 'Dr. Bling', to promote. And so, we elected one of our group as Dr. Bling himself, and he now handles all of the rapping/vocals on the Dr. Bling tracks.
All of the tracks being recorded are done at South Downs College, in Waterlooville, using MIDI sequencers and samples to compose backing tracks, and a cupboard with a microphone for the raps.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
