Vol:134 Where were you first recognized as a Musician?
THEMXXNLIGHT: Working with Wiz on this track was an amazing experience! We played him the song during a studio session and he immediately stood up and started dancing. He recorded his verse right there and then. We are proud to be the only artists of Indian descent to have worked with Wiz! This track marks our 6th collaboration together.
THEMXXNLIGHT: Our music was first recognized when Wiz Khalifa and his right hand producer, Sledgren, discovered us! We were studying engineering in college at the time and it was a crazy feeling to earn the respect of these legends.
What inspired you to be a Musician?
What is your Favorite style?
THEMXXNLIGHT: When we found out we could sing, we knew that our bond as twins meant something special and wanted to embark on this journey together to prove to the world that brown artists can make it.
THEMXXNLIGHT: Our style has always been based around the dark and mysterious R&B vibe.

FE AT U R E E X
THEMXXNLIGHT: Of course there are struggles! But, we have never let any obstacle come in the way of attaining our goals. You can imagine the struggles that come along with being brown artists, but luckily we have supportive parents who have been there to push us through the hard times. Who motivated you the most? THEMXXNLIGHT: Since we are twins, we motivated each other the most. We feel very lucky to be so close and in this together. Which work /song/ rap of yours is very close to your heart? THEMXXNLIGHT: “Naughty or Nice” ft. Wiz Khalifa is definitely the closest to our hearts! We recorded this song a little while ago and it is our most anticipated single thus far! Who is your Fashion inspiration? THEMXXNLIGHT: Our fashion is inspired by the likes of The Weeknd and other similar R&B artists. We also love to dress formally all the time! Nothing can beat a suit and tie. What are the 3 things on your bucket list? THEMXXNLIGHT: The top 3 things on our bucket list would be: Achieve our ideal body goal, win a Grammy, and buy ourselves a Ferrari! What other things are you passionate about? THEMXXNLIGHT: We have had many passions throughout our lives including music, sports, and art! Currently we are most passionate about music and real estate. We work part-time in real estate and focus on celebrity homes.
AUGUST 2021
Can you name any specific person whom you would like to work with? THEMXXNLIGHT: Our dream would be to work with The Weeknd as he is our day 1 inspiration! Last thing you have done for the first time?
