Interview with TRE NYCE
BLACKMAN
When we interviewed TRE NYCE, TRE says that he shares a similar sound to Drake. Actually, we disagree. We disagree because we feel that TRE NYCE is making important political statements in his music. Drake doesn’t go anywhere near politics, but TRE NYCE makes important music that is VERY relevant for our times. We were blown away when we heard BLACKMAN. Honestly, this song should be song at all Black Lives Matter rallies, and it was. TRE NYCE has performed in front of crowds of thousands of people. His music is important and he is making a statement. This is real rap, folks. Rap is supposed to come from the heart and be about something meaningful.
R.E.S.P.E.C.T
When you think of R.E.S.P.E.C.T, Aretha Franklin comes to mind. Aretha Franklin was singing about respect during her generation and now TRE NYCE poetically makes his case on why he deserves respect. His new track “r.e.s.p.e.c.t” is high quality. It is a well done song that commands respect and attention. We had the privilege of interviewing TRE NYCE.
Here is our interview with TRE NYCE
What do you like most about playing music?
Connecting with people. Seeing people being impressed by the sound delivered.
What inspired you to start playing and making music?
2Pac’s video ‘to live and die in LA’ – found it captivating. To see a black man in a Benz with gold chains and beautiful women under the sunset. Inspiring as a kid.
Describe your creative process when you write new music.
I like to freestyle. Like to hear beats on the spot. Be creative on the spot to bring out best out of me.
Who’s your ideal musician to work with? Why?
The Weeknd or Drake. We would have a mutual sound.
What has been your favorite performance thus far?
Performing ‘Blackman’ at the Freedom Rally in BC. It was poetic. Wrote and recorded video 3 days prior. Performed in-front of 20k people 3x in a row.
