Don't call it a comeback!!Thommy Davis--original member of the Basement Boys

Thommy @ the Paradox

   

We catch up to Thommy Davis to finally get some insight into his musical career.  Right away the brotha' let's us know that the patented Basement Boys sound that House headz have heard, since back when he was in the group, is definitely a preferred sound.  At the beginning of the interview I had on some Blaze type music and Thommy said "Is that going to be playing in the background".  When I said yes, he quickly gave me some other music that was a little more faster paced, or the opposite of "sleepy music" as he and dj Neosoul called it .   This brotha' has traveled many a road and has a plethora of info to relay.  We will probably need a 2nd interview in the future.  Talking outside of the interview showed that he has a positive outlook and love for the dance/House scene.  He didn't hold back in the interview as he gave real insight into his life's journey.  He talked about his departure from the Basement Boys as well as his current interests.  Hope you enjoy the interview.
