You recently signed a deal with universal, is that correct? Tell us about that?
We did have a single deal with them for our hit song “Im not locked down” however they said that the record wasn’t responding well with radio and it wasn’t getting added to programing like they thought it would so the deal didn’t go any further so now we are working on an album deal with a few other labels that are getting at us till then we just gonna keep making these hot hits!
