 "Ever since I would say about 5 years old-- I don't remember back that far but my mother told me I use to sing all the time and to be honest, I never thought about doing anything else. I guess when your a little kid, you might want to be a fireman or policeman so I probably might have said that a couple of times when I was real young but its always been about music for me".

Badnews: Its obvious your from Texas, and I say obvious because of the Texas style I pick up from you when I hear your records. Your from a small town in Texas, not from a big Texas city like Houston or Dallas that has a big hip hop culture so what was was it like growing up in a small town and what other musical influences did the town have on you other than hip hop?
Chalie Boy: Growing up in a smaller town Hearne and Calvert, the music is like actual radio waves... it floats all over. Relatives I had in bigger cities brought all types of music to the country. We have a local radio station that gets all the music but it's mostly mainstream you know the same old songs from the music labels but, we listen to blues and jazz. We listen to a little bit of everything. With my mom being a musician at a church of course you listen to gospel music or just knowing the gospel area more because she herself would try and go learn up on the more recent gospel songs and older hymns and all that, but growing up as a kid I heard N.W.A., Roger and Zapp to Luther Vandross around that time I'm trying to think... from the older heads like Grandmaster Flash to 2 Live crew, Dr. Dre, Snoop you know? We all listened to just about a little of everything.

"I started writing poetry when I was like 14, rapped a little in high school then started writing songs my sophomore year in college when my brother started making beats. I stay inspired primarily by the people I work with. All the producers, emcees and other people that I get to work with. And really just good music keeps me inspired to keep writing and making music."

Badnews: How did you get into the music business?
K. Michelle: I got into the music business by grinding. Basically I Preformed in China with the Chinese orchestra, came back, put my music on myspace, within a month the rapper Ma$e had flew me out here (Atlanta) and presented a situation for me, so I stayed out there and was busy cutting demos and meeting people and was just determined that someone was going to let me in the game.
Badnews: That's crazy, so you said that Ma$e actually help you out. What kind of feedback did you get from him when it came to your music?
K. Michelle: Well I don't want to give Ma$e the credit of discovering me, he actually wanted me to come to Atlanta where I met with him. He did say my music was very heartfelt and very soulful. But the man who was really responsible for signing me was MeMpHiTz because by the time I got to him, he got the kind of artist I was, and he just took it and ran with it.
