03Interview
Name, where are you from?
Queen Millz, I’m from Leicester.
What do you do?
I’m a music artist.
Describe your style in three words?
Unique, versatile and vibey.
What’s the best gig you’ve ever been to?
Wireless, because so many amazing artists perform, but was crazy watching Juice WRLD perform before he died.
If you could be on the line up with any two bands in history?
The Streets and
Bob Marley & The Wailers.
Which subcultures have influenced you?
Grime, Afro swing, R&B and rap because I am heavily influenced and into all of them. Grime was popping when I first started writing and R&B influences my style and fashion as well as my singing.
If you could spend an hour with anyone from history?
Aaliyah because She’s a big inspiration to us young females.
Of all the independent venues you’ve played, which is your favourite?
Music Cafe in Leicester, it’s where my career began. 2 Funky have inspired me to perform and express myself through music since a young kid.
Your greatest unsung hero or heroine in music?
Lauryn Hill is slept on in my generation, she is a legend of her time and a big inspiration for female vocalists/rappers to this day.
