“What is your insipration when it comes to fashion? I noticed you are very fashionable and your mother also noted in an interview that you style yourself”
“You are a very hands-on artist (i.e. styling your self, writing your own songs, directing your own videos and coming up with the treatment) how are you so hands on when your Dad is very “hands-on” as well– and he is your manager? Is there ever a conflict with what you want and what he thinks is best or will equal success?”

Q: You have created some controversy so far, being the outspoken member (of your family) and you mentioned in other interviews, you told your mother that you were drinking at your birthday despite her asking you to just have one glass… Have they made any other comments about your media persona and what have you got to say about people who critize you for using the F word where as you are a very strict Christian.
What do you say to those who think that your personality is contrived or that you have it easy because of the fame within your family?

Hey Solange, I was just wondering if you have had an previous T.O.N.Y experiences?

Is your son Daniel musical or as artistic as you?
Tell us more about your forthcoming mixtape?
What happened to the song you did with Estelle and howcome it won’t appear on the album aswell as Wanna Go Back?
Would you ever work with Timbaland/ Danja etc. aka “Producers of the month” or is being a creative artist trying to develop an individual sound very important to you?
Any plans on a UK because I would be booking some tickets to come see you no doubt?

Could you ask her if she’ll go on tour in Europe?

YAY!!! Great interview! Sam I think this is an interview where you can ask things and she’ll easily answer!!!
1) What inspired the change from the t*** pop “Solo Star” to the more electronica/motown SoL-AngeL?
2) Are you dissapointed with your UK charting position, considering that most Freemasons songs are huge hits?
3) Are you effed off that Radio 1 kept you in the upfront playlist?
4) Is this direction you’re taking on this album one you intend on keeping for future albums, or is it just something you’re experimenting with this album only?
5) Do you prefer songwriting, singing or acting?
6) Does your up and coming mixtape feature more songs like F*ck The Industry?
BTW Solange Sol-AngeL and the Hadley Street Dreams is my favourite album of 2008!!!
Oh sorry i forgot!
7) Are you still planned to be CEO of Music World Entertainment when your dad retires?
8) Will there be a re release of the album featuring the Estelle and Duffy duets?
