2 Fly Tre

Interview by Teresa B. Howell

Teresa B. Howell: Tell us little bit about yourself?

2 Fly Tre: To start off telling you a little about me I have to say I’m a real calm and collected person who strictly focuses on the bigger things in life. I’m a person who likes a small circle because my trust is limited so music is like my best friend.

TB: So you have dropped other songs in the past. Can you tell us how you came up with the idea of your music?

2 Fly Tre: How I came up with the idea of the music, I wanted to do was basically me just listening to beats and not putting myself in one category. I feel like I’m very creative and undefinable, so I feel like I can make music of any genre. It just has to have that Fly Flavor.

TB: How long have you been in the music industry?

2 Fly Tre: I have been in the music industry for a year and 2 months.

TB: Can you give us some examples of thing you are doing or have done to expand your music? Explain.

2 Fly Tre: Some examples of things I’ve been doing to expand my music is basically continuously trying to drop quality music and videos while also saving money to fully promote my music.

TB: What made you decide to be serious about the music industry?

2 Fly Tre: What made me be serious about the music industry is me basically having a sit down with myself trying to figure out what career I wanted to have. Once I sat down with myself I tried to brainstorm about things I enjoy because I’ve always been a believer in chasing your dreams no matter what. Once I seen how easy doing music was I started studying the industry and learning more about how to successfully achieve my goals.

TB: Which people or books have had the most influence on your music growth and why?

2 Fly Tre: When it comes to my motivation in music I would have to say its Master P and my family. The reason I say, Master P is mainly because he is a relentless go-getter that in my opinion accomplished every black man’s dream at the highest level. He has played in the NBA, became a successful musician, and a entrepreneur. He has always been multi-talented and I can see a lot of similarities between him and I. Now, when It comes to family my mother, siblings, and father have been there every step of the way literally since my first studio session in March 2020, so without them I wouldn’t even have the drive nor motivation to keep applying pressure in music.

TB: What would you say is the #1 key to success in the music industry?

2 Fly Tre: The #1 key to success in the music industry is consistency. The reason I say that is because when you constantly perfect your craft you can never fail because no matter what obstacles will come, it’s just how consistent you can be through them.

TB: Talk about the biggest failure you’ve had. What did you learn from it?

2 Fly Tre: When it comes to failure I generally don’t believe in that because I believe nothing is a failure everything has a purpose and reason it’s just about learning the lesson.

TB: What advice can you give others who want to follow in your foot steps?

2 Fly Tre: Advice I would give to young women and men is to always chase your dreams no matter the challenges because settling for a 9 to 5 or something you don’t want to do is just going to hold you back and keep you trapped in the rat race for 30+ years.

TB: What does a typical day in your week look like?

2 Fly Tre: A typical day of the week for me right now is generally waking up going to throw boxes and bags at Ups and then coming home to my beautiful daughter and girlfriend while listening to different beats until I’m ready to record.

TB: What keeps you going when things get tough in the business?

2 Fly Tre: What keeps me going through the tough times of the industry is basically me having a genuine love for the music I make and me not settling at Ups for 30 years.

TB: Do you have a website or social media?

2 Fly Tre: As far as websites and social media platforms I currently don’t have a website but I do have Instagram which is @2flytr3 , Facebook @2FlyTre @Tredaflyest, and YouTube which is @2FlyTre Music.
