Social Therapy: How long have you been singing and what got you started?
Kwei: Since about 2001 professionally, but I’ve been honing and perfecting my craft every day. It's always been in my family; music, art, dancing, etc. Performing and visual arts as a whole is my family legacy.
Social Therapy: That’s cool. Who were some of yours influences?
Kwei: All of the greats and some of the unknowns if that make sense, lol. Michael Jackson, Usher, Sisqo, Donny Hathaway, Marvin Gaye, Sam Cooke, David Ruffin, Sammy Davis, Jr. and more.
Social Therapy: Do you have any videos out?
Kwei: Yeah, I'm getting ready to shoot my 8th music video as a matter of fact and I’m currently working on my 2nd album.
Social Therapy: Are you signed?
Kwei: I am signed to an independent record label by the name of “Darimar Ent.” But I am shopping in the majors right now as well.
Social Therapy: Do you have any cds or videos currently out?
Kwei: Yes, I have 2 compilation cd's which I was featured on and my own album "The Making Of" which came out in 2008. As well as a number of music videos which can be found on Youtube.com/KweiMusic, Reverbnation.com/KweiMusic, WorldstarHipHop.com and I have a video that I did with a few other artists for “The Philadelphia Eagles” which was aired on Fox 29's "Good Day Philadelphia" morning show.
Social Therapy: What would say your some of your biggest accomplishments were so far in the music?
Kwei: Just opening up and collaboration with so many other artists. That is truly the rewarding part, getting others perspectives and seeing what they would do with your music. Also it’s an accomplisment just to actually have fans of something you do and work so hard for is always the ultimate reward.
Social Therapy: So what's next for Kwei?
Kwei: Only time will tell. But I am working on some pretty big projects for the very near future...
Social Therapy: Ok last question, where can fans hear your music?
Kwei: They can visit iTunes and purchase my first album. "The Making Of..." or for all of my recent work they can visit Reverbnation.com/KweiMusic or TwitMusic.com/KweiMusic for free downloads of new singles.
Social Therapy: Thank you Kwei the Entertainer Brunson for your time coming through Social Therapy and much success to you.
