MUSIC:
Artist on the move
B: Which famous musicians do you admire? Why?
MS: I admire James Brown, Erykah Badu, and Kanye West. I say James Brown, not just because of his music or performing skills, but because he was one of few artists in history to even own the rights to all of his music and still be successful. Erykah Badu and Kanye West both fall in the category of unfathomable creativity, lyrically and productively. I admire James Brown, Erykah Badu, and Kanye West.

B: Were you influenced by old records & tapes? Which ones?
MS: Most old records that influenced me as an artist came from my father, Jewel Silas Jr, and his days as a producer with his R&B groups, Best Man and Ajanu'. I took what I learned from him alone, and chose to study what influenced his style in writing and producing.
B: Do you perform in public? Describe those occasions? Concerts, radio, TV?
MS: YES! I do perform in public, wherever I'm called to. Live stage shows for events, contests, radio, and city festivals. Each performance is different. Because I have yet to build a solid fan following, the turnout varies. However, I never leave with a negative response. I welcome those who accept my sound, and those who don't as well.
B: How do you handle mistakes during a performance?
MS: Mistakes happen. I, personally, make the mistake unknown to anyone but me. Fast clean up and get back on track. The best way to avoid a mistake during performance and to practice for perfection and always think ahead.
