Swindoe recently released BLK Berry which is a rap song dedicated to his BlackBerry and after a brief chat via BlackBerry PIN, he agreed to do an interview for PDA-247. In case you think the title is a little strange, the song does include the following in the chorus- “I’m a black boy, with a BlackBerry.”

1/ Tell us a bit about yourself- what motivates you to make music and do all of the other things you do such as acting etc.?

Music is and has been a huge part of my life for many years. I like the fact that I can be myself and express as I feel. Love fuels me day in and day out to reinvent myself and continue pursuing my dreams. Acting, painting and writing are extensions of my artistic swagger and vivid imagination. The combination of these things makes up Swindoe.

2/ What BlackBerry do you use and what prompted you to write a song about it?

I heard some of the bad reviews about them but I still luv my storm. I was on my way to the studio, bought the Storm, walked in the lab and heard the hottest beat of the summer. Fresh off the excitement of my new gadget I freestyle the track now known as BLKBerry.
Its just one of those tracks that sticks all day.

3/ How do you use your phone on a daily basis? What are your main reasons for owning a BlackBerry?

If I lost my BB I would be devastated.lol. I use it for Facebook, Myspace, twitter, BBM, yahoo msg, emails, web, and composing documents. As a matter of fact, I and writing these comments using my BB. Its safe to say I’m a berryExtreme user;)

4/ What plans have you got for the future, music and smartphone wise?

The future looks bright. As a unsigned artist, I will continue to make good music and inspire the greatest things out of life. I plan to go on tour soon, but nomatter where I’m at ya can hit me on my blackberry!
