Hip Hop Interview Question:
5. On Black Celebrity kids website, they say " Is Zewdy the next beyonce?"..How does that make you feel to know that people have compared you Beyonce Knowles who is an icon to many across the world?....You must be feeling fierce honey! three snaps to that! :-)

Zewdy Interview Question:
5. I think it's so cool! A lot of people know this, but Beyonce is my idol & I really do feel honored to be compared to her. At the same time, I don't want to be "the next Beyonce" - in fact, I won't be. I love & respect her to the fullest, but I'm Zewdy. I want people to know me for my music & my voice, but I think it's a given that they'll be able to tell that Bey is a huge influence.


Hip Hop Interview Question:
6. Now I know in a previous interview you stated that your father is a musician, so does that fire voice of yours come natural? Do you have a voice coach?

Zewdy Interview Question:
6. Lol thanks! Well, yeah for the most part it comes natural, but my dad always told me about support from your diaphragm. My label recently assigned me a vocal coach but we haven't started the process yet.


Hip Hop Interview Question:
7. After watching many of your youtube performances, you singing is truly angelic..oh my you blow it out the park, but your new single Into the Night is beautiful! how is that hitting the billboards :-) and how are your fans taking that?

Zewdy Interview Question:
7. You're making me blush! LOL! Thank you sooo much! Into the Night is doing pretty well, I've gotten a lot of feedback about my fans downloading it & it even reached number 1 in Ethiopia! It's a very different sound but my fans seem to love the song! As far as the charts, I have no idea how it's doing lol but I believe we're gonna start REALLY pushing "I Don't Wanna Wait" soon!


Hip Hop Interview Question:
8. Do you write your own music?

Zewdy Interview Question:
8. Yes, I do some writing - but the songs you have heard so far were not written by me. Shouts out to Chuka, Chase, Mika Means, & Julius!
