transcribing my interview w/naomi from last week, most notable offcut that won't make it in - there will be new stuff in the next few weeks or so, i think remixes of songs they like, and there will be a How To Be A Lady Vol 1.5 mixtape before Vol 2. they're still signed to def jam and sorting things out for the second album atm.

Any Terius involvement?
― Number None, Tuesday, 2 August 2011 09:55 (twelve years ago) link
i gather both sides want to make it happen but nothing's definite yet, it's schedule-dependent
don't get the impression it'll be solely terius-helmed
― lex pretend, Tuesday, 2 August 2011 09:57 (twelve years ago) link
Yeah that seemed unlikely. Good to hear it's a possibility though

i skyped with naomi for half an hour on the day amy winehouse died. about two hours after i found out, to be precise. i didn't think transcription could get any more awkward and awful than it usually is but accidentally breaking that news to your interviewee - i thought she'd already know - was a new low. the rest went well though! there are a couple more exciting things in the actual interview.
― lex pretend, Tuesday, 2 August 2011 17:28 (twelve years ago) link
oh they're in talks with "heavy hitter" producers for the album, i asked if she could give any hints as to who and she went "y'know...naw!" <3
― lex pretend, Tuesday, 2 August 2011 17:30 (twelve years ago) link
:D
i was just thinking about them this morning and how i can't wait to hear new stuff, exciting news!

oh lol what i thought was the ~big news~ didn't make it in either, obvious the sub-editors didn't think it was big news and it got cut for length!
anyway: kingdom and electrik red will be working together again, next time with the whole group, and there is a possibility that he may produce stuff for their second album

It sank faster than an Electrik Red album. Andre Cymone wrote and produced all of it.
This did a little better -- more proto-ER:

Klymaxx was conceived and formed by Bernadette Cooper, who also chose the name. The dream of an all girl band became a quest she pursued after leaving college. Through many auditions and temporary members the group that became successful consisted of drummer/vocalist Bernadette Cooper, vocalist Lorena Porter (Stewart), bassist/vocalist Joyce Irby, guitarist Cheryl Cooley and keyboardists Lynn Malsby and Robbin Grider.
More recently, Irby has been involved with launching the career of young R&B vocalist and The Inc/Def Jam recording artist Lloyd. Lloyd Polite was once a member of the teen pop group N-Toon, whom Irby put together and signed to Dreamworks Records in the mid-1990s.

Haven't heard the Cooper album. She probably talks through the whole thing.
