Why the name 5th Ave?
EQ:
We chose the name 5th Ave because "Its where you wanna be"...5th Ave in NYC is the best of everything shopping, music, fashion, food etc...and we feel like we one of the best at what we do.
Do you play live?
CJ:
We will...we are currently finishing up our album. When the opporunity presents itself to play live we will be ready. We would love to do a 5th Ave Unplugged on BET or MTV.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
SL:
It's not a bad thing as long as people do not abuse it. We see it as an added benefit...another outlet. We have to adjust with the times but for most, what they don't understand, seems to scare them. But history has proven that people will eventually adapt to new technology.
Would you still sign a record contract with a major label?
EQ:
Definitely. We would sign a recording contract. However, our management company Richh Kiddz Entertainment, is seeking a label/distribution deal. That would work out better for all of us because we are a big family.
Who are your musical influences?
CJ:
We are into good music from all genres. We are soulful R&B artists-like Musiq, Jodeci, Brian McKnight, Dru Hill etc...However, We listen to all music from alternative rock, rap, hip-hop, neo-soul etc...
Favorite City to live and/or visit?
SL:
ATLANTA and NYC
