24/7 Entertainment Interviews 'Zarif'

So I was lucky enough to get an interview with Charice. I then promised I would give you another exclusive interview.
This time I was privileged to actually interview new up and coming British singer/songwriter ZARIF!
Zarif is of Scottish-Iranian-Jewish descent and ranges from different genres including Funk, Pop and Soul.
She performed as an opening act for Beyoncé last year on her 'I Am... Tour' and I was lucky enough to watch this performance. Ever since, I have become a fan. Check out Zarif doing her thing in her new video 'Box Of Secrets' featuring Mz. Bratt:

Now Zarif is on the verge of her debut album being released and I was given a chance to ask a few questions to her. Check out the questions after the jump and enjoy!

24/7 Entertainment Interviews 'Charice'

A few weeks back, I was presented with an opportunity to ask Charice a few questions. Charice, full name Charice Pempengco is an asian singer who rose to popularity through YouTube. At just 18 years old, she achieved a #1 single and her debut album achieved a top 10 slot in the Billboard 200 album chart. If you haven't heard her first single 'Pyramid' which features Iyaz then you can stream it below:
