Buzzine: Paint the Town with Electrik Red

2009-08-05T17:00:00.000-04:00

Reviving Female Musicians

With the recent rise of uncouth pirates and political tea parties, it’s hard to tell if we are living in the 21st century or the 18th. Luckily, gender roles have yet to revert back to the restrictive etiquette of previous times, as women are keeping the entertainment industry wrapped around their manicured fingers with sexy professionalism and determined attitudes.

Back in December 2008, the New York Women in Film and Television held their 28th Annual Muse Awards, where they honored elite members including actresses Laura Linney and Cynthia Nixon, Nickelodeon/MTV Networks Kids and Family Group president Cyma Zarghami, and advertising queen Linda Kaplan Thaler. A classy affair held at the historic Waldorf Astoria, the point was made that accomplished industry women today are getting attention not because of notorious behavior but because of undeniable talent.

Well, for the most part anyway.

Now, fast forward to Spring 2009 and get acquainted with Electrik Red. Just when you thought women were done pioneering major cultural movements, here comes a group that is strong, vibrant and on a mission that was once considered impossible. The fierce foursome includes Naomi, Sarah, Lesley and Binkie. After getting their feet wet in the entertainment industry through various gigs like backup dancing, they then decided to combine their talents and break free with a unique identity and solid approach. According to Leslie, the group aspires to promote confidence and empower the female audience listening to their music.

In the spirit of Madonna, Janet Jackson, Vanity 6, The Spice Girls and TLC, these ladies are ready to celebrate their sexuality and gender by bringing their “edgy brand of hip hop and R&B” front and center. However, don’t be misled because, according to Binkie, there is a thin line between a sexy presentation and a raunchy one. Make no mistake about it — these ladies are all about a classy delivery.

“It’s about taking ownership of being a female,” Binkie said while Sarah stressed that it is important to stay “true to who you are.” In the past couple of decades alone, this “ownership” of their music has been a growing phenomenon among female artists. From an angry Alanis Morissette to post-trauma confident Britney Spears, a rocking Melissa Etheridge to a self-identified diva Beyonce, the bold voice of women in the music industry continues to grow, perhaps making up for time lost during the prim Victorian era.

Yet, those previously named are all single recording artists. When it comes to female groups, Electrik Red strongly feels that there is currently a void in the music industry that they are more than ready to fill. It’s no secret that artists in general see the world differently and often also see alternate methods of making a difference. By setting what Leslie describes as a “blueprint” for modern women with their style and message, the group is now ready to break out on the music scene.

At the moment, Los Angeles serves as their home base for their mission. However, since these ladies have set their sights on “world domination,” brace yourself to be electrified by music’s latest energized ensemble as they paint the town Electrik Red.

Electrik Red Exclusive Interview

2009-08-05T15:00:00.000-04:00

Get sassy with this fiery quartet.

Electrik Red took a moment to give "cyber-hugs" to The-Dream and Tricky in while talking about what it was like to be the stars of their video instead of the backup dancers, how they came up with the concept for their single "Drink in My Cup" and why world domination is next after they conquer the music scene.

Walking into the conference room at the New York City offices of Def Jam to meet quartet Electrik Red was like stepping in to a sauna. The heat was thick in the air. On the massive marble table (that takes up the majority of the space), there were red velvet cupcakes and Hershey's Kisses strewn carelessly about. It was pretty obvious that something had just gone down. And as it turned out, we'd just missed out on the fun: the ladies had just thrown an impromptu dance party, mounting the expensive-looking table and clicking their heels across the marble countertop as the label staff cheered them on. It could quite possibly have been the most action that table has seen in a while - and something that only the ladies of Electrik Red could pull off in an office environment.

That's because these four gorgeous performers - Naomi, Binkie, Lesley and Sarah - are giving hip-hop and R&B a much needed shot of attitude, sass and spunk in the arm. Their smoky new single "Drink in My Cup" featuring The-Dream (and written by him and Tricky Stewart), mixes suggestive lyrics with taunting boasts about sipping on some bub in the club. The jam is just one of the sizzling tracks on their upcoming as-yet-untitled debut, produced entirely by the RedZone team (The-Dream, Tricky Stewart, Radio Killer and Carlos) and set to be released early next year. And the quartet is so confident that it's unlike anything you've heard before that they've created a word for their unique genre - Urban World - describing it as a "whole new melting pot of love and juices." It's a bold declaration, but it's precisely the type of confidence and 'tude that separates the women from the girls - and in this case, Electrik Red from the rest.

And though they're only getting the ball rolling on their singing career now, Electrik Red has stayed busy pursuing careers in other areas of the industry before signing to Def Jam. Before teaming up as a foursome, each of them had successful careers as backup dancers, separately performing in music videos for artists like Usher, Ciara and Chris Brown. But it was only when three of the ladies were on tour with Usher that they decided to jumpstart their singing career, recording a demo that eventually led them recording more tracks with hit maker Rodney "Darkchild" Jerkins and independently shooting their debut video for "Electrik City." Their big shot at fame came when they inked their deal with Def Jam in February 2007, and ever since they hooked up with the RedZone family, they've been staying busy in the studio laying down tracks for their debut album.

But no one ever said they couldn't have fun in the meantime. After giving their impromptu performance in the Def Jam conference room, Electrik Red took a bathroom break to touch-up and get their minds right to talk with Kiwibox VJ Kylie. The ladies were kind enough to clear off the chocolate and baked goods from the table before pulling up a chair and getting down to business, bringing that same sense of spontaneity that they'd shown earlier to the conversation. Taking turns answering questions, Electrik Red took a moment to give "cyber-hugs" to The-Dream and Tricky in while talking about what it was like to be the stars of their video instead of the backup dancers, how they came up with the concept for their single "Drink in My Cup" and why world domination is next after they conquer the music scene.

The-Dream’s New Girl Group is Naughty and Nice

2009-08-05T14:00:00.000-04:00

Electrik Red
How To Be A Lady, Volume 1 (Radio Killa/Def Jam)

“Girl Power” is nothing new. The concept has been alive in music for more than a decade, shifting residency from the Spice Girls to Destiny’s Child to Danity Kane and all the before and in-betweens. But so many female groups are fenced in by lyrical limits, restricted from ever springing higher than their femcee counterparts. Don’t count on the latest gang of gorgeous singers, Electrik Red—comprised of Naomi Allen, Lesley Lewis, Kyndra “Binkie” Reevey, and Sarah Rosete—to greet that ideology with anything less than a manicured middle finger. On their debut album, How To Be A Lady, Volume 1, the fearless quartet are full of lippy, high-charged tunes—polite, they are not.

It’s virtually impossible to listen to Electrik Red without being tempted to judge it as a vicarious third go-round from R&B’s Einstein, The-Dream. After all, he and partner Tricky Stewart wrote and produced Lady in its entirety. The finished product flows with easy hooks, layered composition, and eccentric idioms particular to the pair—what separates it from previous work is its raciness. The group expresses their sentiments as explicitly as possible, whether sexing and then emasculating a male in one shot (“W.F.Y.”) or proclaiming their “shawty is the shit” with confidence (“Muah”). But their feminist stance blurs when the verses get hooker-ish, as on “P Is For Power” where Binkie flirtatiously raps: “The Y is for yes / Vanilla / If you wanna try / boy you better buy“ during a curious chant about their lady parts.

Still, it’s hard to argue against those contradictions when set to the celestial melodies of The-Dream and Tricky. Electrik Red may be confused as to which wave of girl power they’d like to ride. What’s not in question: Their debut sounds damn good.

Electrik Red Is Not Your Average Girl Group

2009-08-05T13:00:00.000-04:00

A funky four-girl caravan rolls into the deserted Brooklyn, N.Y., eatery in a dizzying blitz of lashes, lipstick, and laughter.

Pictured from left, Kyndra “Binkie” Reevey, Naomi Allen, Lesley Lewis, and Sarah Rosete—collectively Electrik Red—light up the spot like a flickering fluorescent sign and warm up a frigid November day with characteristic bluster. “I believe we’re gonna sell a million fucking records in the first week just like those other chicks did,” proclaims Binkie, the crimson-pouted, couture-worshipping party girl.

Sassy British-Canadian/Jamaican beauty Naomi chimes in, “We’d love to be colossal like the Spice Girls and the Pussyclot (sic) Dolls.”

Rounded out by Brooklyn rude gal Lesley and sultry Sarah, they’re a gorgeous twentysomething quartet, sporting porn-star hot bodies and close-up friendly kissers. But there’s nothing prefab about their union. All four girls performed as dancers and models alongside artists like Mariah Carey, Janet Jackson, and Ciara—they appeared in her 2007 “Like a Boy” video together—before forming Electrik Red.

Their partnership began five years ago when two sets of childhood friends—Lesley and Binkie are native New Yorkers; Sarah and Naomi are from Toronto—danced on Usher’s 2004 Confessions tour. The four video vixens worked their collective industry connects until Def Jam Recording’s late Executive Vice President Shakir Stewart set up an impromptu audition with label chairman Antonio “L.A.” Reid.

One year later, their dazzling, self-titled Tricky Stewart– and The-Dream–helmed debut is heaving with libido-driven hits, especially the throbbing lead single “Drink In My Cup.” “Being sexy is not a problem,” says Naomi, reaching for her gloss-kissed wine glass. “Everybody’s trying to get their wind machine and the glitz and the glam. We’re not those girls.”

They’ve got looks, legs, and lyrics. But, according to Harlem-bred Binkie, what sets them apart from other chick cliques are their “coochie coupons.” She’s just kidding, but there’s something to her answer. It’s not the suggestion that they’ll give up the goodies for a track—it’s their free-spirited, unapologetic sexuality. “It’s about being real,” Sarah says.

“Everybody’s a goddamn freak. We just have a different perception of what being a lady is.” But are all the ladies on message?

“Together, we’re a really ridiculous force of feminine juice that’s ready to be squeezed all over the industry. And you’re not gonna be able to stop it,” assures Binkie, “whether you spit or swallow.”

Exclusive Electrik Red: “Not Corny Like the Spice Girls”

2009-08-05T03:00:00.000-04:00

Bossip recently caught up with new girl group Electrik Red to discuss their new album and why the Dream thinks that “these b*tches are crazy!”

Bossip: If any one of you were to get caught up in some crazy story (that would surely end up on Bossip), which one of you would it be?
Electrik Red: Every single
one of these crazy b*tches would be one of those girls. I pray to God that everyone keeps their sh*t together. You might catch Binkie getting kicked off of an airplane. You’ll probably catch Naomi leaving the club with Nicole Richie, Jamie Foxx…a couple of the homies. You’ll probably catch Lesley in Jamaica tanning topless on public beach, and you’ll probably catch me (Sarah) eating a burger with my mouth open.
Binkie: I don’t really care what people do as long as you’re on time for the show. Just everybody show up to the goddamn show and play your position.

Bossip: The name of your album is How to Be a Lady Volume 1, but what’s the real meaning?
Electrik Red: It’s basically tongue in cheek. It’s our 2009 version of what we feel the modern day woman should be like. We’re all very strong individuals and we don’t take crap from anybody. We’re quite the opposite (of a traditional lady) because we definitely have potty mouths, and we definitely don’t shy away from getting our point across in whatever manner. We’re more aggressive than the traditional definition of a lady which is quiet and dainty. But of course, we do have table manners and we know how to conduct ourselves in any given situation. We just have an edge to us and we’re not afraid to show it.

Electrik Red: We won’t have our cheeks out in Dubai, though!

Bossip: This edgy persona that you display…is it who you girls really are, or was it made up for the group?
Electrik Red: It’s definitely us. That inspired The Dream when he wrote the album. It was kind of like a weight lifted off his shoulders. He works with all kinds of artists like Mariah Carey and he might want to say certain things but she wouldn’t necessarily curse or be open to certain things. When he met us was like, ‘Wow, these b*tches are crazy!’ He felt like he could say whatever he wanted and so we did just that on the album.

Bossip: You girls are not the typical waifs that we see in girl groups. You’re thick and muscular and look like you might enjoy a cheeseburger every once and a while.
Electrik Red: We are brown women and we do appreciate a good turkey burger with cheese on it. However, we are going for high school skinny, but let me clarify that. I don’t mean no @ss, no tits, no nothing. That’s not it. We understand that we are four brown women and we embrace our bodies, but we want it all toned and intact.

Bossip: What’s your goal with Electrik Red?
Binkie: We’re trying to accomplish world domination. The most amazing thing about Electrik Red is that we’re actually friends. We like each other’s company. We’ve all had really amazing careers. We’re all trained in different aspects of the arts. There’s a common blood amongst us. I’m going to go on the record and say that little to nothing will break us off of this path. We applaud each other for our different journeys and things that we all want to do in our lives, but right now the main goal is to knock n*ggas in the head with this Electrik Red sh*t.

Bossip: You guys have done a pretty good job of fusing together different genres of music. What’s your sound?
Lesley: I would say we’re a mixture of the sexiness of Vanity 6 with the urban touch of Total, and a dash of Gwen Stefani Hollaback Girl. We’re all about girl power, but without the corniness of a Spice Girl.
Sarah: But, definitely Spice Girl money!

Bossip: A lot of your songs are racy and sexual. Are these songs coming from personal experience by chance?
(pause…then laughter erupts)
Binkie: Everything in the music is relative. I will say that “WFY” (We F*ck You) is dear to my heart. I’m a big supporter of “Kill Bill” although I can’t say that it’s a personal experience. If it goes down, you’ll hear about it.

Bossip: Who did you work with on the album?
Electrik Red: Dream executive produced the album with Uncle Tricky (Tricky Stewart). They are geniuses. They really honed in and figured it out for us. It was amazing.

Bossip: Which one of you guys were the back-up dancers for Usher?
Electrik Red: Lesley, Sarah and Binkie. Because we worked for such amazing artists like Usher and Ciara, they gave us little jewels of wisdom because their professionalism is top notch. We saw how they handled their careers and we were able to take note.

Bossip: Electrik Red is a crazy name. Who came up with that?
Binkie: I was chillin’ with Lesley one day and we were riding around in our hometown, the old stomping grounds, and we kind of just blurted the name out. We wanted something that was really, really amazing, and would match the magnitude of the music that we were making. We built the idea of Electrik Red, and then we named it.

"The-Dream's Protege Electrik Red Hit The Road With Lil Wayne" - Read Article Inside.

2009-03-18T22:08:00.000-04:00

Lady power on crack — that's a proper description for Electrik Red, an edgy quartet of sexy women who know what they want, and more importantly, how to get it. Sarah Rosete, Lesley Lewis, Kyndra "Binkie" Reevey and Naomi Allen make up the L.A.-based group, and although they've all had extensive careers as background dancers for megastars like Usher and Janet Jackson, it was only a matter of time before they made the push for the limelight. “Before our dance careers, performing was something that we did naturally,” affirms Leslie, who says they met on the party scene in L.A. Their debut album, (due out in April), which was written and produced by The-Dream and Tricky Stewart, showcases a playful sexual energy, a tangible brand of femininity that frankly, the industry has been missing since groups like Vanity 6 disappeared from the music scene. The group walks a fine line between being ladylike and risqué. The electric and raw, “Drink In My Cup” and flirty, “Friend Lover,” might push the buttons of conservative listeners — not that they care. They’re all about showing the complexity of women, even if it ruffles some feathers.

"From Madonna to Angela Davis — the spectrum [of womanhood] is so broad,” Binkie says. “In the ‘50s it was about supporting your husband, in the ‘70s they were burning bras, now you have M.I.A. performing pregnant on the Grammys.” Sarah agrees. “I think being sexy is about being confident, whatever that means for you,” she says. “We’re talking about real-life situations, this stuff actually goes down. We just chose to be the girl group to speak on it.” –Jacinta Howard

Electrik Red In The Musiqtone.com Hot Seat - Read Article Inside.

2009-03-18T22:00:00.000-04:00

The Hot Seat: Electrik Red

Ann makes her The Hot Seat debut and puts the girls of R&B group Electrik Red in the Seat.

When I first heard of Electrik Red I was intrigued to say the least, reading a little bit of this and a little bit of that, asking myself “Are they really a new version of The Pussycat Dolls?” Wanting to know more I started my research and found that unlike the ‘Dolls’ – Electrik Red is self made and “industry” savvy; with their performing arts background and many years of touring the world with other famous artists as dancers, they knew where they wanted to go, what they wanted to do and went and achieved it.

Electrik Red’s Lesley, Binkie, Naomi and Sarah make up the sizzlin’ sexy quartet and their debut album “How to be a Lady” (Island Def Jam) is set to release on April 21st, 2009. With the release of “Drank in My Cup” and “So Good” along with the music videos is indication of their range. “Drank in My Cup” had mixed reviews (I don’t know about you, but I like the raw, in your face nature of the video – but that may be because I think these females are hot) while “So Good”, was just that, so incredibly good – I am happy to see a new R&B and/or “urban world” girl group back on scene, and I believe they will only get better.

Their talent along with their bold, sexy confidence is sure to get your attention. In their own words, they describe what their journey was like and what it’s like to be in their shoes right now.

ADESINA (Def Jam Publicity): Hi – you’re on with the girls – girls this is Ann Frohoff with Musiqtone.com

ELECTRIK RED: Hey’ya!Ann: Hi – How’s it goin’ today?
ER: Good, ya’know movin’ and shakin’

A: This is very exciting! Thanks for taking the time today to speak with me! It’s also exciting to have a “girl group” back on scene! Sexy at that too, I was listening to your music and it’s very sexy, I like that brave sexiness.
ER: We like that though, you know we think, we feel that there is a void of women’s voices like that.

A: Absolutely, it breathes new life. It’s confidence. So , I know you’re busy, so I have just have a handful of questions – as far as “the group” goes – Electrik Red - the one thing that I’ve found is that there is a misnomer out there about you girls being “put together” – manufactured. I’d like to clear that up for people.
ER: Oh, we’d love to clear that up. Nothing could be further from the truth. We’re actually friends. We didn’t audition to be together, no manager threw us together, we’re just actually good ol’ gals. (laugh) This is Sarah. Naomi and I knew each other since we were children in Toronto. We went to a performing arts school together. Lesley and Binkie know each other from going to Laguradia, which is a famous high school in New York. After high school all of us pursued professional careers as dancers and met in the field working together in music videos and touring. Binkie and Lesley approached me to join the group and I couldn’t refuse, then I invited Naomi along to join the group, every one met and that was about 6 years ago. It’s been 6 years since we’ve been working on the music, getting it right. It’s been a whole year since we’ve been signed. It’s nothing manufactures, we all choice to be here and we are very excited to here.

A: What inspired you to go in this direction? Was it a natural progression?
ER: I think that’s naturally what we’ve known, we’ve all been performing working on our craft vocally, dance wise, acting, visual arts since the age of 7. This has always been the path we wanted to take in arts. So it happened naturally that dancing and the music industry was our first step to actually get our foot in the door. The ultimate plan was ultimately, organically imbedded in us to take our talents to the forefront. I think too, as artists, and being professional dancers we’ve reached a certain level of success and there is only so far you can go, so after seeing with world; traveling with some of the top artists in the world, being in music videos. As artists you naturally feel what else can I do that inspires me to be more creative. Choosing the musical path gives you more power, more creativity to do what you want, it’s your own thing, there’s way more control. We’re the bosses.

A: How does this compare to what you were doing in the past? Is this what you thought it would be?
ER: This is way more than what we thought it would be, it’s unbelievable. I think that in the past you your training, and getting really good at your craft, your performing for everybody, your dancing and working really hard at your rehearsals; but really you’re not making any major decisions. You decide if you’re going to the auditions, and decide if you’re going to take the job and from that decision you’re working, and kinda under the rules of someone else or how the project’s going. But right now, the way things are, we make all the decisions, we have an extreme amount of creative control. From what we wear to who we get to choreograph, we know gang of choreographers who are good, to who does our makeup, to who is our stylist, to who what our image should be, to how our music should feel, to how our stage show should be done. We have all the control, so now it makes a huge difference. We are not in the background for anyone anymore; we’re actually the (driver’s seat).

A: Share with us what it was like when you got word that Def Jam wanted to sign you, what were you doing, where were you at?
ER: Actually, we were at Def Jam. Um, we were freaking out. There’s a huge long story to it, and I don’t tell it the best, I’m gonna let Naomi tell the story. NAOMI – There is so much information girl. We were hungry, okay, we know some people in this industry, a hundred million people cause we’ve done everything we can do in our won profession; and one of the people we knew was Shakir Stewart, and we were lookin’ for a bite to eat to be honest, I’m gonna be honest…..we called him, he said “I’m actually at the office, why don’t you come by”; and this was on February 22nd, and we came by. He asked what we were doing. We said we were working on the music, but that wasn’t the focus, the focus was dinner….he didn’t believe us, so we pushed the tables aside just to give him the razzle dazzle (we said to him) “You will believe us, we have been working, don’t say we haven’t been working”. So….he was impressed, and then the next day….within 12 hours, they literally locked the doors to Def Jam and said you’re signing today. We want you to do the performance you did last night, whatever that was, we want you to do that for the entire building. So there you go, literally on the spot we’re dancing up a storm, signing; and Mr. Chairman, Elliot Reed walked by the office and peaked in, and was like ‘What’s all the commotion about?’. It hit us like, this is now or never, that was the moment that changed our lives.

A: Now, onto something just as exciting; you’ve hooked up with some heavy hitters – The Dream and Tricky Stewart – share what it was like going into the studio with them.
ER: This is Binkie, working with them was like a dream come true. We’ve got to work with a lot of different producers in our past and every body’s got their own little way of doing things which is amazing to see different people creating in different ways; but to be with Dream and Tricky while they were creating our first album, I still cannot fathom, you know, how we got here, how we could be so lucky to work with (these) masterminds, they, this was really a treat. We busted down the album in, we recorded in what? Two and a half weeks. They wrote it in just like, a night, which is unheard of and I think that everybody was really focused. Once Dream and Tricky got it, I mean they nailed it exactly to a T, like who we are. So I don’t think anybody else could have done it, and I don’t think it coulda went (with) any other girl group. Those are our songs, they belong to us.

Sarah Rosete, Lesley Lewis, Kyndra "Binkie" Reevey and Naomi Allen make up the L.A.-based group, and although they've all had extensive careers as background dancers for megastars like Usher and Janet Jackson, it was only a matter of time before they made the push for the limelight.

“Before our dance careers, performing was something that we did naturally,” affirms Leslie, who says they met on the party scene in L.A.

Their debut album, (due out in April), which was written and produced by The-Dream and Tricky Stewart, showcases a playful sexual energy, a tangible brand of femininity that frankly, the industry has been missing since groups like Vanity 6 disappeared from the music scene. The group walks a fine line between being ladylike and risqué. The electric and raw, “Drink In My Cup” and flirty, “Friend Lover,” might push the buttons of conservative listeners — not that they care. They’re all about showing the complexity of women, even if it ruffles some feathers.

"From Madonna to Angela Davis — the spectrum [of womanhood] is so broad,” Binkie says. “In the ‘50s it was about supporting your husband, in the ‘70s they were burning bras, now you have M.I.A. performing pregnant on the Grammys.”

Sarah agrees. “I think being sexy is about being confident, whatever that means for you,” she says. “We’re talking about real-life situations, this stuff actually goes down. We just chose to be the girl group to speak on it.” –Jacinta Howard
