Exclusive interviews
When and why did you start the
band?
We started the band in 2009 when we were all in year 9. It was
originally us two [Tashana+Ray] and
we were called TR2 but we didn’t really like performing we preferred to write the music, so we
decided we need to find somebody to be the face of out group
[Yasmin] Then I came along
[ALL] laugh
[Ray] We Met Yasmin at a gospel concert she
performed [Rapped] and after we exchanged numbers.
[Sheneka] we started practising, even over Skype, but our connection weren’t too great. So we met every
Wednesday and our flow was just immense.
[Yasmin] I always wanted to be apart of a group, I
weren’t really feeling being a solo artist and with the help of God he placed
me in this
group. By the then we changed our name to Trinity and the machines
How
would you describe your band genre?
We only rap and sing
gospel lyrics we have a kind of Rnb vibe.
We do have a few pop
song on our album….
This is coming out
January 2013!!
When I write the
lyrics I just get into my element that’s what I love to do, writing about God
and what he has done for me just make think about we all have come from.
What
was your life like before you broke out into the industry?
[Yasmin]Well i used to be a part of a gang
just doing badness and my life was very eventful but for all the wrong reasons.
I used to rep e7 now I rep the guy in heaven
Then I don’t know how but then I started
writing Christian lyrics.
I just used to party drink smoke weed and
cause trouble. I would come home so late every day just because I could. Some people would have called me a hood girl
and back then I thought it was such a good thing to be hood but I know it’s
pretty sad. I thought the way I could express myself was to
fight and be rude to people. Then I found music I was first writing lyrics for
the rap videos repping my area.
To cut the long story short
I realised i wasn’t about that life of sin and i found church and then I met
these lot...
What’s your next goal?
[Yasmin] well we have
made it big in England especially London now I think we want our music to go to
America see if we can take it to the USA.
[Ray] we were happy
when we heard our song on the radio for the first time and to hear them in
American would be AMAZING!
[Tashana] I’d also
like to get some awards maybe a few Brit awards. Something to put on the wall.
Were eager to make another album even though
the first one hasn’t come out yet I’m looking forward to starting writing some
more lyrics.
