I am SO PLEASED Ms. Moses will be interviewed.

Question:
Teedra, you are known for having a refreshing sound/vibe/look. How do you plan to keep that going for the next album? Does your independence in songwriting and styling hinder you at all?

God bless you girl. Do it up and make sure to tour in Canada!

Goddamn CL…you all are being blessed in 07. I’m expecting some big shit for you guys in 08. Hope you guys are able to keep up with your new status in CyberSpace.

At this pace you’re gonna start getting some offers. I can see you guys on VH1’s Best Week Ever.

I just want to say Teedra continue to do your thing and rep Southern Cali. You have amazing talent I can relate and feel your songs. So…. much love and success, hopefully with this second album you will shine like the star that you are.

anywhoo cl staff(brian,tiana,angel) keep the good work up and GET THAT MONEY lol

What keeps you grounded when you are known from some mouths as a one of the most underrated talents of the millenium?

Who is (musically) dope at the moment? Who would you like to work with?

What makes Ms. Moses complete?

What do you want your legacy to be?

I like it, it’s nice but I’ve never heard of her…………. sorry!!

Yay.. i Love her album BRILLANT?

I would like to ask : “How how the loss of her mother affected her outlook on life and her music in general?

My question(s): What artist does she listen to these days?

How would she describe herself, on a personal level (like is she silly or serious) and musically?

I wanna ask her…

Do you feel as though your talent is some what losy or over looked because of all of the other young female singers that are out?

I love Teedra her voice is beautiful and her first cd was just crazy!!!! I may have skipped two songs,maybe! She is a true R&B artist with no exposure. She needs to be out there with the so called singers we have out now!!!

love teedra…. ask when she is going to be in the DC/MD/VA/NC area PERFORMING ON THE WEEKEND? I cant make it to Love on a Wednesday in DC– IM OVER 4 HOURS AWAY. Also ask if she is opening for anyone big. When Maxwell starts touring again, she would make the PERFECT opening act.

I LOVE HER MUSIC.

Who is she working with on this next album as far as producers and collaborations I hope she works with Poli Pauli again

Woo I’m loving these interviews CL!

Can you ask:
How did your working relationship with Raphael Saadiq all jump off? Like how did you meet him etc?
Who’s working on your new album?
Which artists past and present do you like?

I really like Teedra, definitely gonna cop the album when it comes out!

To Miss Teedra Moses: I am a new fan.

When did you first fall in love with music?

How was it like working again with Super producer Raphael Saadiq?

NESSEY: Not only does Teedra write all of her own music, but she’s written for the likes of Mary J, Christina Milian and Macy Gray. I’m a huge fan. Do yourself a favor and check out her only studio release, 2004’s Complex Simplicity. She’s one of the most slept-on artists, and it looks like she gives a good show. Here she is performing the “Juicy” remix to her song “Be Your Girl.” You can’t hear the song in its entirety, but you can see what a strong following she has: http://youtube.com/watch?v=Y6MYXDxuORQ

~I “LOVE” TEEDRA MOSES.. HER FIRST ALBUM WAS HOT… BUT I HEARD SNIPPETS OF THIS NEXT ONE AND I AM SO EXCITED… KEEP DOING YOUR THING MAMA… SHES SO TALENTED~ FINALLY A TRUE SINGER!!!

hi everyone angel i would like to ask a question of. singers like fantasia and monica (the one who have the most talent) like your self how seen a dip in record sales how do you feel about that? ima bout to register whooo ooooo anyway god bless

“What would you say of your style philosophy?”

How would you describe your musical style?Who were you influences?How do you think you can bring R&B back especially with the cookie-cutter singers out now?

Teedra i LOVE YOU!!!

How does it feel to be super talented being kind of the “underdog” of r & b, but not getting recognition from the mainstream radio stations & t.v ?

Why she’s on an indie label vs. major label?
What well known songs has she written?
Does she feel like she’s more of an artist becasue she writes her own material vs. artist that don’t wrrite their own songs.

and the most important question

Why is she not advertised/ marketed more?
I have seen one video for her and that was a long time ago. I actually saw an advertisement in Vibe and bought the album after hearing Your Girl. Will def. be buying the new album on the relase date!!!

Ask her when she’s gonna escape that graveyard known as TVT. Her label sucks, seriously.

this is a comment not a question…but i love teedra’s music ever since the first time i heard be your girl….

my question is…

is there going to be a video for take my love away???

What inspired you to write/sing “for a lifetime”?
Who would you like to work with?

I love “For a Lifetime” its a beautiful song..I listen to it all the time.

Love Teedra’s music!! I too have looked for Tedra’s cover of Musiq’s “Who Knows” from Noah’s Arc and have been unable to find it. If it will be on her next CD that would be great. I would looooove to know. “In today’s society where sex sells, and being a ‘dancer’/'entertainer’ sells more cds and get more airplay on the radio, how do you avoid that trap and keep your music real and relevant.?” Also please come to DC/MD real soon!

OMG, I’m @ a loss for words…I LOVE THIS WOMAN, but on to the business:

1a. was her baby’s daddy (rapper Ras Kass) the inspiration for the bulk of her debut album?
1b. did she really catch him “red-handed” in bed with another woman?

2a. having penned hits for some of the industry’s more “known” acts (Mary J. Blige, Macy Gray), does she ever feel underrated?
2b. how does she cope?

3a. has being on an independent label been to her advantage or has it possibly hindered her as opposed to a major label

4a. has the sophomore album’s pushbacks been due to industry politics?
4b. if so, does she ever feel pressure to conform to “what’s hot” now, as opposed to sticking to her guns?

i LOVE you Teedra, you are the TRUTH, & to those(NESSEY, GANSTACHIC, ONE TREE HILL) who don’t know, this woman is a BEAST with that pen & a pad…she wrote ‘Here We Go’ for Trina & Kelly Rowland

BRIAN, thank you so much for bringing us an interview from someone who is ACTUALLY meaningful

I’M HANDS DOWN THE HAPPIEST LADY TODAY…TEEDRA IS THE TRUTH & I CAN’T WAIT UNTIL YOUNG LIONESS DROPS IN EARLY 08′!

QUESTION: When will you be dropping the Christmas Album & will you shoot a video for any of the tracks?

Comment: Teedra I read that you said you were “not a superstar and will never be”…just wanted you to know that your LOYALIST fan thinks…YOU ARE A SUPERSTAR & A ROCKSTAR! Keep Making GREAT MUSIC!!!

…sorry, but i have to ask her

5. being featured on Noah’s Arc season 1 has garnered Miss Moses a very LARGE gay following & fanbase, how does she feel now being an ICON to such a large number of black gay men.

?

forgot to put a question mark at the end of question #5

@ Solstarr , the song is actually on her mixtape now.

I’ve been a fan of teedra’s since her first album and am ANXIOUSLY ANTICIPATIONG the second. THANKFULLY I’ve had the honor of meeting teedra twice at two of her recent shows here in LA. I always wanted to ask teedra a few questions but the my mind went blank both times I met her. I was in AWE lol..
1) In the “Complex Simplicity” album, your sons Ras and Taj were named in your publishing credits for nearly the entire album. How do you involve your sons in your career? How do they feel about their mother being as successful as she is and growing?

2) As much as your second album “The Young Lioness” has been anticipated and as much as your fanbase has grown, TVT records still felt the need to push back your second album. Do you have plans to leave TVT anytime soon? Why do you think TVT felt the need to push the album back for the second time?

3) Are all of the songs you’ve written (including for other artists) from personal experiences from your life?

4) At a recent show (August 26th, 2007 @ the ROXY Theater), you announced that you were moving from L.A. to Miami. Was this move career based or personal?

Thats all for now. BIG UPS TO THE LOOP! Ive been waiting for an interview like this. Teedras music is the TRUTH and the womans words are like rain. LOVE YOU TEEDRA!

How do you feel about artist such as your self and neo soul artist not being played on the radio as much as beyonce, ciara or who ever else is hot at the MOMENT?
Love your first album, can’t wait for the new one.

Question for Teedra:
I know her as a woman to be very outspoken and very apt to do her own thing regardless of what others say so my question is:
what would you say to young people about following their own minds and having faith in themselves?

First off you have such a strong voice, that is both beautiful and calming at the same time. “Be Your Girl” is the joint… I think its sad that your not in heavy radio rotation, on the other hand it may be a blessing as heavily played songs some become a nuisance.
1. Are you going to change anything in your marketing campaign to reach more people? If so, will you feel like your going against what you believe in just to get media attention?
2. With all these problems some stars are having now, is it better to remain out of the limelight? Do you think MTV’s explotation of Brittney Spears brings women entertainers to a new low?

I love me some Teedra Moses. Its funny, I have my mom inlove with her song “Complex Simplicity,” my two faves are, “Take my love Away & For a Lifetime.” Ma has a beautiful voice, and her album is one of my top faves. Its sad, how artist like her dont recieve as much promotion as these rihannaz out here. Teedra, I looooove this song you are truly amazing girl.

My Question:
Ms Moses when you are going to be performing in Detroit, Michigan, also
will you be working on another album?

I wanna ask Ms. Moses, will you be shooting more film clips for this album, because on the last album, only “be your girl” had a film clip.

What does it take to be a Young Lioness, like what gives a Lioness there heart?

Where do you get the inspiration to write.

Has there been a point when haven’t been able to write, like have you gone through writers block?

I’m so happy, y’all got me screaming!!! DAMN!!!

Teedra I LOVE YOU GIRL!! I’ll be back with questions later on (maybe), I have to go now.

Good job CONCRETELOOP!!!

AHHHHH! Brian u killed it! Teedra? I’ve loved her for soOo long! am so happy that your doing an interview with her. She’s EXTREMELY underrated. ?uestion hmmm…ask her if she’s happy with her management/record label. Cos as far as am concerned, she’s not being promoted enuff-SHE IS A TRUE (underrated) STAR OF OUR TIME! oh yea and ask when she’ll be coming back to London cos I loved her performance at the jazz cafe when she came over last time. Thanks J.

Oh wow, I love Teedra. Go head CL, gettin to speak to my girl!!

Anyway my QUESTION would be:

-With your new album “The Young Lioness”, how do you feel it is different from the first album? What kind of sounds should we expect this time around?

Much love x

I LOVE this song!!!!! and I love Teedra! she is so underrated!

EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!! I EFFIN LOVE TEEDRA MOSES!!!!!! CAN”T WAIT FOR THE INTERVIEW!!! I’M LISTENING TO COMPLEX SIMPLICITY RIGHT NOW

Im so excited for CL..doin real big thangs..
i might not post alot but i come every damn time im on the computer..lol

My question for Teedra is : Are you ever going to release a live album of Complex Simplicity?…i just cant get enough of the youtube clips..lol and when you coming to Philly?

Who was doing your marketing and p.r. for Complex Simplicity? They need to be fired!!

How will that be different for The Young Lioness?

Teedra Moses…Ain’t nothing but the FREAKIN’ truth! My 14 year old daughter put me on. The first song I heard was “Be your Girl” and I’ve been a fan ever since.

Questions: How does it feel to you [as an artist] that you’re not getting the exposure that you rightfully deserve? and is it something that we can do as fans to make sure you get to where you need/should to be??? How can we (your fans) get more of you???

Comment: Everything has a time and a season….This is your SEASON Young LIONESS…..Get your Shine on!!!!

And how can a sister get tickets to your show in DC at Love on September 26th??? I’m mad that it’s not on the Love Website.

I can’t wait for this interview. I absolutely love her music. I think she is so slept on as a artist. Because her first album was so good I can listen to it from beginning to end with no problems. Thank you CL for doing some really great interviews and getting really good people that I love reading about. I love this site.

When are you coming back to Pittsburgh? Its been a min but I’m going to try to get to the Philly show in Oct.

I LOVE your music. The lyrics are relatetable and your voice is beautiful. Your music is better than most, I just wish you had more exposure. Are you gonna make any videos for this album? You are very talanted, keep making great music, THANKS for making real music & not BUBBLEGUM R&B. Can’t wait till the album drops!

hi teedra. love your music. love your voice. i wish you all the best. question: if you had the opportunity to travel back in time (a la Quantum Leap - old 90’s TV show) and relive the life of anyone….who would you be?

Does she still have family in New Orleans? How often does she go back and will she ever settle there? Who is the man that she wrote “Be Your Girl” for? Why doesn’t she do more east coast shows and when can we expect the album?

Thanks!

I love Teedra Moses. She is the most under rated artist I know. She has a wide vacal range… I LOVE HER, SHE IS ONE OF MY FAVS

What’s up God Mommy Tee,

This is your self claimed god son Carl Kelly from DC!! kisses momma!! Well you already know who I am, but the question is, when are we going to see another video from you? We only had Be Your Girl, and that didn’t even get played like that. Thanks TVT!! (mean muggin) So I wanna know when will be see another video by you?? ( and you already know I’m trying to be in it!! ).

Love you God Mommy!!!
Carl Kelly
DC

Dear Teedra,
Have you in your artistry been inspired by books or other cultures and lifestyles? Or for the matter any other artforms? Also since the fabulous “Complex Simplicity” have you worked with other artists besides MJB, and Raphael Saadiq? Thank you.

~B Jackson

If you haven’t had the opportunity I would recommend you read the Alchemist by Paulo Coelho. Thanks Again

Please ask her:

Is her myspace page really reliable on her tour stops because she was supposed to be in Cleveland w/ Raphael Saadiq & Chrisette Michele but she wasn’t there…wsup with that? Still love her though…

I love Teedra’s music & voice so much. I went to her show in Cleveland and she didn’t show. Please ask her why- it’s iggin me
