KRYSTAL AND KEVIN ON THE DAILY REMIX (The Oxygen Channel):

Source and Transcribed by: Lisa Lombardo

Introduction Note: Lisa Lombardo

Krystal was introduced during the second segment of The Daily Remix
as "The Artist to Watch." Krystal brilliantly expressed her feelings,
so I decided to capture them and bring them to you first hand. You
will notice I inserted what was occurring in the background as she
spoke. As Krystal beautifully sang "Amazing Grace" a cappella in the
background; she expressed that by the time she was two years old she
was traveling with her family in churches all over the state.
(Indiana) "Gospel music made a big impact on who I am. I just love
that music. Also...rock and roll. When you hear those bands, I just
love `em! With the mic-stands, they're flipping it in the air and
flying through the air with it. (With a huge smile...) If you have
ever seen me perform live, you know I like that mic-stand thing."
(Enters a live clip of K signing "Angel on My Shoulder.) "About three
and a half years ago I met the guy who is now my manager; his name is
Mookie. He was producing music when I met him and had produced people
from like Genuwine and Timberland to the Backstreet Boys. We started
going to labels just talking about what we wanted to do and stuff.
But considering he had such a great relationship with the guy sitting
next to me, Kevin, he said, "Yo Kev, you know, what do you think
about the labels that are interested?" "And I told Mook, we're
starting this label, she has a beautiful voice, it's angelic and I
wanted to be a part of it." "And that is basically when my life took
a U-turn." (Clips of the "Supergirl" video enter.) "You know, you're
going to fly to LA, you're going do this and la and la and I was
like, Oh my God! You know, my dreams are starting to be put into
motion and I feel like I can do anything. And Kevin was like, "we're
going on tour, she's coming, and you're going to open for us. And so
I was like, Oh my God! Being on tour was not only a tour, it was a
blast." (Pictures of K backstage hugging Alex and Howie are viewed
while she speaks.) "I am an only child, but not anymore. I have big
brothers now that I never had before. She turns to Kevin, thanks; I
do not know what else to say but wow!" (A live clip of her
singing "My Religion graces the screen.) "The first night she was
doing her sound-check, I was really emotional looking at her and
seeing how hard she works and how motivated she is and her attitude
kind of helps me gain perspective." (Clips of the "Love is A
Beautiful Thing" video enter.) "My whole philosophy in life and music
is BE YOURSELF! I just think of myself as being the best and the most
excellent I can be. And with that type of perspective then you will
feel successful and you're going to be successful. I am who I am and
I appeal to all the people that I can. And that is what I want to do,
touch their lives." (Closes with a clip of the "Supergirl"
video.)
