Danielle
Bianca
Laci
Aubrei


Q: How is life since the big buzz around you guys?
Aubrei: Oh my lord, *breaths in* lovely..
Danielle: Ew, Aubrei, you talking like you are Gone with The Wild bitch, girl, you need something fresh to say, it's been DOPE GIRL! We are kind of shocked at the attention, we had a vision but we didnt think the vision was going to be seen this quick and be as big as we thought.
Laci: It's been such a blessing and I'm so suprised at the attention, the buzz... I think it's a sign that we are doing something we been wanting to do since the beginning.
Bianca: Hunnnyyyyyyyyyyyy, what can I say? It's been kind of hectic, new group, a big dream and now everyone is just as excited about the music because BABY, what girls?
All: WE BRING IT!!!
Danielle: YASSSSSS child. Next question.


Q: Okay, love it. Where did you think you will be at this time of our carrers?
Bianca: In music, it's hard for groups to come out and really have so much impact as much as someone solo, because it's many different bitches in one group-
Danielle: I aint no bitch girl, I'm a lady.
Aubrei: *laughs dramatically* Who said so?
Billboard: I think she is a beautiful lady.
Danielle: Yeah, get chaaaaa life girl.
Aubrei: No shade 'Miss Lady' lame... I dont know where we will be, I was hoping we wont be as far as we are now, I thought that we will release just one single, one video and the world never hears from 4U again.
Laci: True because the reality of some girl groups is they make one album, a few singles, couple of performances and you never hear from them again and we wanted to get that out of people's head that groups can do just as good as solo artists.
Bianca: Expect for Girl Spice- epic ass chica's.
Danielle: Oooweee, they give me life boo.


Q: How do you all handle each other's personalities?
Laci: HAHAHA, that's funny, we can't handle each other; we just DEAL with each other.
Bianca: Girlie, you tried it. No, we KNOW how to handle each other-
Laci: How Bianca? We all know Danielle has a controlling promblem... Aubrei is some beautiful freak... and I'm the religious sweetheart that can get bold, and you, you are the white girl trapped in a gay guys body.
Danielle: OOOOOOOOOOOO GIRLLS! Laci is trying it today, girl girl girl, let me stop you there. I aint got no controlling promblem girl. This is how I feel Billboard, we all got personality, we all got likes and dislikes, if you cant handle us, it's no need to be in the group.... we all got crazy sides of us, we doesn't? We been all the same since middle school...
Aubrei: While, thanks for beautiful freak Laci. I agree, I am a beautiful creature. I just dont pay attention to them.. I just write and do my shit and be fabulous. No, we handle each other well because we been around each other sooooo long, that's weirdly it's kind of natural now.
Bianca: I'm still kind of on the edge that Laci tried it today. This is not what you want girl, dont come for me.
Aubrei: You are trapped in a gay guy's body, geez, all this gay language.
Danielle: Aubrei, just focus.. ' beautiful creature' weird ass...


Q: Did any of you expect that you will be this close and chasing your dreams together??
Danielle: No, I hated this girls back in middle school, Bianca got on my last nerves, oh my god girl, you HIT SO MANYYY OF MY NERVES girl, I could of WRECKED myself playin' with you!!
Bianca: I was a little bitch in high school, I'm so sorry. I didn't know that the three girls that I use to look at like 'Ew, do they own hairbrushes? are they even socially acceptable.." will be like my sisters..
Laci: I didn't hate or dislike anyone-
Danielle: Girl please, miss little 'goodie tissue' I remember you use to just stare at me...
Laci: Danielle, that's because I thought you were so beautiful. I wasn't beautiful back in high school, I was the fat girl, the fat girl with no friends, the religious weirdo...
Aubrei: *cries* that's so sad.....
Danielle: *hugs Laci* You should have told me girl, you had thinkin I was going to get my ass handled to me after school.
*They all laugh*


Q: You have been getting a lot of attention also on your fashion sense, your style. How do you put together the outfits that you do?
Aubrei: I love to play with different colors, patterns and shoes. I'm a big tie fan so I usually just play around and put together outfits no one will ever have the courage to even wear or will ever think of and that's what makes my style so unique- it's about thinking outside of the box, taking a lot of risks that you may be talked about for, but that's the fun in fashion.
Danielle: HONEY, you already know yo girl, gots to be fresh, all day girl, okay girl? I love heels, I love glamours looking clothing, something that going to show off my figure. I also love hair-
Aubrei: *blasts into laugher* oh my god, sooo funny.
Bianca: Like bible, we know you love hair, this girl has soo many wigs, I can donate them all to charity and still have more to give to the church. I just like to wear what feels good on me, I put together my outfits according to a concept I want to go with. It's so many different styles that you can mix it with your own personal style that you can create so much when it comes to fashion.....
Danielle: Stop hating!! Anyway, for me, it's about putting together something that will have you looking amazing.
Laci: I dress according to how I feel, but I love to match. I want my style to be very rock star-ish. I go for that all the time and mix my own personal style to the edgiest of the rock style, OH! I love shoes!!!! I have so many, I think it's becoming a problem.



Q: Who influences the group?
Danielle: One and only, the amazing Girl Spice. I remember growing up, I use to watch them perform and I will always dream about being the lead in a group, performing with beautiful costume, being pop culture biggest music group, touring. They started the dream of mines. I look up to those girls so much because they created something no one did, they created what being in music as a group was all about, power and talent.
Bianca: I think what influences is- is each other... we have so much we want, we all have seperate dreams and what we want the fans to see in each other, different music tastes, different vocal types, that at the end of the day, we influence each other because without all of the input we all have in the music, the music wont sound as dope as it does. We influence based on what we believe in and what we trust and that's what we love.
Laci: I totally agree with Bianca. We influence each other and the influences we have as indivivals all come together when we work.
Aubrei: We all love Teen Titans and we are so influenced by the hard work and dedication they have to their sound and style of their music, to always be yourself and be true to your music and we have carried that message since the beginning. I think that's what got us so far now, we are staying true to the music and yourselves.


Q: How is working with all the major producers on your music? I know XROCKA is a lead producer in your music, you have worked with Missy Elliot and Timbaland.
Danielle: Can I say dope?
Aubrei: Drugs? No...... but it's pretty dope. *side eyes* Hehe, all the producers we dreamed of working with, we are working with so at times it's unbelievable to see all this talent working with us.
Bianca: Yes, XROCKA is no joke, that girl is not to be played with, she so so dope, it's amazing the talent she has, along with Missy and Timbaland. We are so blessed and lucky to have them on our team.
Laci: I can't even begin to express the feelings we have towards those three people, to bring the vision we all have to life, it's amazing to see.. they believed in us and we can't thank them enough for taking a big risk with us and working out the vision that too many producers was so hard to create.


Q: Why do you think sex appeal is important in the group?
Danielle: You reallll FUNNY, DUH, I mean look at us.
*Aubrei gets up and starts dancing like a white girl*
Aubrei: *dances* you see this? *out of breath* we.. got... sexx.. appeal.. yeah boy, you didnt know I can dance like us, sex appeal.... *breaths heavily* is very important...... because we got this... *turns around*
Bianca: Oooooo, Aubrei got CAKES HONEY! I live. Girl, look at that. *hits ass* I like that.
Danielle: I always knew you was a lesbian.... Oh my god, I'm next to a lesbian.
Bianca: Girl, please. Aubrei has a nice booty for a little Spanish girl. I mean, sex appeal is exciting, we want that excitement and it's kind of natural. We are very sexy women so it's kind of just comes out.
Laci: I like being sexy, it's confidence and it's fun.
Aubrei: I... just... sexy. Yesssssssssssssssss!!!
Danielle: That's my girl!!!!


Q: You girls are interesting, why the madness towards The Weekend?
Bianca: Boy, who?
Danielle: GIRL, he talkin' about The Weekend.... little boys, we did that to see if they can handle us because some people cant handle my girls, it's tooo much life going on in this group but naw, they are like our brothers. Really talented boys.
Aubrei: Dustyn is soo cute....
Bianca: Also gay... I'M MAD because Danielle, you remember that day we wanted to go out with them? GIRL! They all got girlfriends.
*All grasp dramatically*
Laci: No they didn't?
Danielle: They was busy? WHATEVER BOYS, you was busy with girlfriends, girl..... shade shade shade.
Bianca: SHADDYYYYYY BOOTS my girl. We dont care, boyfriends now are not what we want, right girls?
*Silence*
Laci: I want a boyfriend, being single is kind of boring Bianca. We all know you have boy bacteria where you dont want them even near you.
Bianca: Pathetic..... Jesus. Like bible, no boyfriends. Boys are trouble and it will take the focus from the music..


Q: Riot spent weeks and weeks on the charts, debuting at number two on digital, how did they make you feel?
Aubrei: We got the call about it and we screamed.. we couldn't believe it.
Danielle: The first lead single went number two? that's kind of unheard of from a all female group, so in our minds- we broke history... it was amazing to see that.
Laci: I was so shocked. It made me feel like the dreams we all had was coming true.
Bianca: We will never forget that day... the feeling is unexplained.. something no one can feel... *begins to cry* we worked so hard on that song and to see it go far was amazing to us... thank you tough crew!!!


Q: And now the second single, 'Earthquake' Why this as the second single?
Danielle: WHY? Boy, have you heard the track? We aint saying nothing us, you should know. Thats the epotime of dopeness boy.
Aubrei: Danielle, you are the rudest people I have ever....... met... anyway, because it was the single we all kind of vibe from and in plus, it's way bigger in sound than Riot. We was kind of different, another apporch to the album's concepts so we wanted to show both sides of the concepts.
Laci: Aubrei, honey, you know that day that your mother said something may be wrong with you mentally? I think she was honest....
Aubrei: I'm a weirdo, yes, but a sexy ass weirdo.
Billboard: Yes you are.
Danielle and Aubrei: Thank you!!!
Bianca: *rolls eyes*


Q: Why did you not release the mixtape 'Endless Dopeness'
Danielle: We wanted too but we wanted to move on because we wanted to focus on the album more and get into the album concepts. It didn't really fit into the vision and era we wanted to create for yourselves so we just let it go, but it's music we still jam out too.
Bianca: I think it was the timing, that was around the time we got signed to Kiss My Pop, the deal was sealed and it was going to begin work but we also wanted the fans to see the sound beforehand of the album, but it was just the wrong timing, maybe we will release it after the album for the fans to have more music.
Aubrei: That mixtape was beast...
Laci: I loved it, I dont know why we didn't release it..


Q: Is it true you girls love Jennifer Armstrong?
Laci: OMG YESS! She is so phenomenal.
Danielle: We respect and dig SANGERS! That girl can SANG! Dope music, amazing voice, we support here.
Bianca: She got that girl power we all respect so much, we're in love with her new album.
Aubrei: So talented, we love her.


Q: When can we expect 'Domination'?
Danielle: By the end of the year... we promise.
Laci: Pushing for a September release.


Q: Thanks for the interview, now, 4U Girls performing 'Earthquake!!"

Performance at Billboard- Earthquake Live



UserPostedImage


As the stage is up and the camera is focused on the stage, the girls all have their backs turned to the audience as the vibistic intro begins to play, exciting the audience. The girls move to the sound of the intro, making their shoulders up and down. Danielle moves her shoulders move dramatically as she speaks into the mic: " Are you ready?" The audience roars. " Yeah!" They all begin to turn around all at the same time, walking fiercely to the beginning of the stage. They all pick up their mics as the intro stops as they all look around the stage. Danielle begins to sing with attuide as the first verse arrangement begins to have more of a club flavor to it, not the original arrangement of the record. The bass is more loud also you can hear the drums more. Danielle sings as she looks into the audience, she then knees down, singing her verse, taking it one word at a time she reaches out to the audience as they touch her hands. Bianca comes behind Danielle and begins to move her hips in a circula motion as the rest of the girls stand in back, rocking side to side as Laci does some hip hop dance moves as her plays freely in her hair and Aubrei adds speechless on pitch falsetto to Danielle's verse. Danielle lays on the stage, having the mic in the air, singing the last of her verse as she plays in her hair flirty then gets up slowly as the arrangement slows down. She stands start up as she looks into the audience and begins to do some deep alto chest notes in riffs. She puts her finger in her ear as she sings in a more high pitch riff as the other girls back are turned to the audience. The stage lights then turn to blue as Danielle backs up with the lineup as her back in to the audience. The audience applause. The drums begin to rumble fast with the arrangement as the girls turn around quickly and begin to do a choreography to the arrangement. Most of the time the girls are touching each other lips, moving their hips and moving their upper bodies. They all hold the mic, singing the chrous together as Aubrei winks to the camera. Danielle begins to shake her booty, making it go side to side, moving her hips along with it. Laci then puts her hands up in the air as a clap effect in the background goes along with Laci clapping. The drum rumble is heard again as the girls all run in a circle as the lights begin to change colors but stops as Bianca then runs excitedly to the beginning of the stage, singing her verse. She stands up with pride as she sings in in a low register, she moves her shoulders seducily as she smiles to the audience. " Because baby, we gone shake it like.." she holds the mic to the audience as they scream, " EARTHQUAKE" the instrumentl stops for just a minute as it continues a few seconds later to Bianca completing her verse, walking backwards to the girls.

They begin to sing the chrous all together more slower this time, as the intro is now heard, just the intro, not the original arrangement. They sing in a line as Aubrei begins to do falsetto ablibs, Laci does runs in a powerful steer voice, takes it stronger in a head voice. Bianca adds her deep low register notes as the background sings the chrous. Bianca sings in a high head voice, as their voices all come together. As the background fades, the rest of the girls begin to be quiet as Aubrei continues to sing in her high falsetto. She takes it low then she picks it up in severel ranges and pitches, hitting severel chest notes but still manages to stay in her falsetto. She continues to walk slowly to the beginning of the stage, still singing, you can see the passion in her eyes as her eyes are closing slowly as she walks. The audience stares at her as the other girls backs are turned. She takes her vocals more softer as Laci walks beside her. Her powerful voice is still breathtaking as she remains in her normal natural voice, she sings, " We can shake it like a Earthquake' a sound of a bomb is heard. Aubrei looks at Laci and still in her falsetto. " We gone shake it like a Earthquake' a sound of a bomb is heard as we see Bianca and Danielle are on the floor on their knees. " WE GONE SHAKE IT LIKE A EARTHQUAKE' another sound of a bomb is heard. Aubrei and Laci shoulders go up.

A dance mix is heard coming on as Aubrei and Laci do a hip-hop step to it as the audience roars as they stare deeply into the audience. Laci is more the star of this as she uses her curves and amazing body to work, she is more into it. Aubrei smiles. Danielle and Bianca are doing the hip-hop steps in the back as all of the sudden, the original arrangment comes on to them doing the exciting hip-hop main cherography all over again as Laci adds her powerful notes while she continues to dance. " Shake like a Earthquake' is heard from Danielle and Bianca. Aubrei does soft falsetto adlibs. " OOOO-No-No' as Laci sings. " Ooooo- No-No" she continues. The bridge breakdown is heard, just the arrangement. As the girls are line up and post as if they were gangsta. The lights fade out. The audience roars.
