Without a doubt, one of the sexiest Slow Jams in history is a song called Knockin' Da Boots, by three guys from Houston. Shazam, Dino, and G.I. made up the group H-Town, who over the years were responsible for creating some of the hottest Slow Jams ever made! H-Town started doing big things when the group members were just teens, as they teamed up with Luther Campbell, who managed and produced them. You may remember "Luke" from 2 Live Crew, so it didn't come as a big surprise that H-Town's first album Fever For Da Flavor included song titles such as Lick U Up, Sex Me and of course, Knockin' Da Boots. What was shocking, however, was the success of the songs, which led the album to sell over a million copies and ranked H-Town among the top of the heap of R&B crooners. To their credit, for all the attention given to carnal matters, the threesome also concentrated, on motion picture soundtracks spawning MORE PLATINUM SUCCESS.......
HTOWNCLUBS.COM AFFILIATE SAT DOWN WITH HTOWN AND INTERVIEWED THEM.

WHAT HAS H-TOWN BEEN UP TOO? ""WE'VE BEEN WORKING ON OUR NEW CD AND TOURING BACK AND FORWARD OVERSEAS JUST GRINDING.""

FOR ALL THE UP AND COMING YOUNGSTERS LET THEM KNOW WHO & WHAT H-TOWN IS ABOUT. (BECAUSE EVERYONE ELSE ALREADY KNOW) ?
""THAT'S EASY WE'RE ABOUT LOVE,ROMANCE AND RESPECTING OUR WOMEN.KEEPIN IT GROWN AND SEXY REAL R&B""

WHERE DOES YOUR INSPIRATION TO KEEP PLUGGING AWAY AT THIS MUSIC BIZ COME FROM?
"" 1ST BELIEVING IN GOD,OUR LOVE FOR MUSIC,FAMILY AND THE LOVE WE GET FROM THE FANS AT THE SHOWS WORLD WIDE.NOT TOO MANY GROUPS TODAY CAN STILL GO OUT HERE AFTER A DECADE AND STILL HAVE A LOYAL FAN BASE OF ALL AGES.THAT STILL LOVES THEM AND SHOW LOVE,WE HAVE THE BEST OF BOTH WORLDS.""

WHEN IS THE NEXT ALBUM GOING TO DROP? WHAT SHOULD WE EXPECT FROM THE ALBUM?
"""OUR NEXT CD IS ALMOST DONE IT SHOULD BE OUT IN A FEW MONTH.WE STILL KEEPING IT GROWN AND SEXY CAUSE IT WOULDN'T BE H-TOWN IF WE DIDN'T.THE FANS EXPECT THAT SO WE HAVE TO GIVE THEM WHAT THEY WANT.WE ALSO HAVE A SONG ON THE CD FEATURING OUR BIG BROTHERS JODECI WHICH IS CRAZY.""

I KNOW ITS BEEN A WHILE AND A QUESTION YOU PROBABLY ANSWERED A MILLION TIMES, BUT HOW HAS THE DEATH OF "DINO" EFFECT THE GROUP "H-TOWN" AS A WHOLE?
""IT EFFECTED US IN MANY WAYS BUT MOST OF ALL IT MADE US STRONGER AND HE LIVES THROUGH US.CAUSE THE H-TOWN LEGACY WILL CONTINUE WE'RE NOT THE TYPE OF GROUP TO LAY DOWN AND DIE IN HARD TIMES.WE KNOW THAT IT WILL NEVER BE THE SAME B/C IT'S A MEMBER MISSING.THAT'S A VOICE THAT CAN'T BE REPLACE AND WE DON'T PLAN TO.A LOT OF PEOPLE WONDERED HOW WE WERE GOING TO CONTINUE WITH JUST THE 2 OF US.AND WHEN THEY CAME OUT TO THE SHOWS THEY WERE AMAZED THAT WE STILL PUT IT DOWN.YOU'LL NEVER KNOW UNLESS YOU COME SEE FOR YOURSELF."

IVE SEEN IN SOME OTHER INTERVIEWS THAT MAJOR LABELS WANT YOU GUYS TO ADD ANOTHER MEMBER TO REPLACE "DINO". IS THAT A POSSIBILITY & WHY?
IT'S NOT B/C HE CAN'T BE REPLACE AND OUR FANS DON'T WANT THAT.WE POSTED THE QUESTION ON OUR MYSPACE AND TWITTER AND THE RESPOND WAS "HELL NO" ON THE OTHER HAND WE WOULDN'T FEEL COMFORTABLE WITH A NEW MEMBER.SOMEONE WHO HASN'T BEEN THERE FROM THE BEGINNING WHO DIDN'T SHARE THE STRUGGLE IT TOOK US TO ACHIEVE ALL OF THE PLATINUM SELL AND AWARDS WE'VE ACHIEVED UP TO THIS DAY."

SINCE YOU GUYS ARE PRETTY MUCH CONSIDERED LEGENDS IN THE GAME ESPECIALLY IN HOUSTON. WHAT ADVICE DO YOU HAVE FOR UP COMING ARTISTS?
""" PUT GOD 1ST,STAY FOCUS,PRACTICE YOUR CRAFT DAILY AND SURROUND YOURSELF WITH A GOOD BUSINESS TEAM.ALSO BE CREATIVE AND BE A LEADER NOT A FOLLOWER,BRING SOMETHING NEW TO THE TABLE.""

I KNOW YOU GUYS ARE ON TOUR, BUT ARE YOU GOING TO BE DOING ANY SHOWS IN "HTOWN"? ""UMMMMM HOUSTON SHOWS WE DON'T KNOW BUT WE'RE WORKING ON IT.ANY REEL PROMOTERS OUT THERE THAT WANT TO PAY FOR A GOOD SHOW GET AT US.BUT HOUSTON IS HOME,WE DON'T WANT TO DO ANY TYPE OF SHOW HERE UNLESS IT'S GOING TO BE PROMOTED AND DONE RIGHT.""


HOW HAS THE CROWD RESPONSE BEEN ON THE TOUR?
""""THE LADIES HAVE BEEN LOVING IT AND THE FELLAS ARE COMING OUT AS-WELL.""

WHO ALL IS ON TOUR WITH YOU GUYS?""
WE'RE ON TOUR RIGHT NOW WITH SILK,NEXT AND TROOP AND THE FANS ARE COMING OUT 90% WOMEN AT EVERY SHOW.""

YOU GUYS KNOW YALL HAVE CONTRIBUTE TO THE BABY BOOM IN THE 90'S WITH YOUR MUSIC. LOL! DO YOU FEEL THAT YOU WILL HAVE THE SAME EFFECT ON YOUR NEXT PROJECT?
LOL U KNOW WHAT THAT'S FUNNY CAUSE WE FEEL THE SAME WAY,THAT'S WHY WE TITLE OUR NEW CD "CHILD SUPPORT".WE TOOK IT BACK TO THE BEDROOM ON THIS CD WITH A FEW SURPRISES HERE AND THERE"".

TELL WHAT WAS THE INSPIRATION BEHIND THE HOT NEW SINGLE THAT YOU GUYS HAVE "CALL ME MR. PACKMAN"? BTW ITS JAMMING !!!!
""WELL IT WOULDN'T BE H-TOWN IF WE DIDN'T DELIVER YOU THAT TYPE OF SONGS. IT'S OUR SIGNATURE AND WE LOVE COMING UP WITH NEW CATCHY PHRASES.WE NEVER FOLLOW THE TREND WE SET THEM.""

HOW DO YOU GUYS FEEL ABOUT THE STATE OF MUSIC TODAY? AND THE DECLINE IN RECORD SALES?
""I THINK THAT IF CORPORATE AMERICA GIVES IT BACK TO THE FANS INSTEAD SELLING US WHAT THEY THINK WE WANT TO HEAR WE CAN TURN IT AROUND.CAUSE THE FANS DON'T LIKE IF IT'S WHACK THEY WILL TELL YOU.IF IT'S HOT THEY WILL REQUEST IT AND BUY IT.WE DON'T HAVE THOSE OPTIONS TO REQUEST ON THE RADIO OUR FAVORITE SONG ANYMORE AND 4 SECONDS LATER IT'S ON THE RADIO.I WANT MY RADIO BACK LOL""

WITH ALL THE SUCCESS YOU GUYS HAVE HAD, DO YOU FEEL THAT YOU GUYS DIDNT GET THE NOTORIETY THAT YOU SO RIGHTFULLY DESERVED?
"""WE DID AND WE DIDN'T B/C WE KNOW THAT THE INDUSTRY KNOWS OUR HISTORY AND OUR TRACK RECORD ON HOW SUCCESSFUL WE HAVE BEEN THROUGH OUT THE YEARS EVEN IF THEY DON'T LET IT BE KNOWN.FROM THE PLATINUM CD'S,TO PLATINUM MOVIE SOUNDTRACKS WE'VE BEEN ON AND HAVING THE COVER SONG TO MARTIN LAWRENCE MOVIE THIN-LINE BETWEEN LOVE AND HATE.BUT IT DOESN'T MATTER AS-LONG AS THE FANS ARE STILL LOVING OUR MUSIC TODAY THAT'S THE BEST AWARD ANYONE CAN ASK FOR AND WE HAVE THAT.""

WHAT DOES HTOWN HAVE TO OFFER THE MUSIC WORLD THAT THE MUSIC WORLD IS MISSING?"""IT'S MISSING H-TOWN LOL J/K BUT WE ARE UNIQUE IN OUR OWN WAY AND WHEN YOU HEAR AND H-TOWN SONG YOU KNOW IT'S US.THE INDUSTRY IS MISSING REAL R&B RIGHT NOW AND WE BRING IT EVERY TIME ON EVERY CD.NOT SAYING THAT THEIR ISN'T ANY REAL R&B ON THE RADIO B/C IT IS. IT'S JUST THAT THERE'S MORE BS THAN GOOD MUSIC OUT TODAY""
