The Story: Prima J
An Interview with Prima J's Geffen Records A&R, Erica Grayson

When did you first hear Prima J's music?
I first heard Prima J's music after Stefanie Ridel (former member of Wild Orchid and wife of Interscope Geffen A&M Exec Ron Fair) called me and asked me to check the girls out on Myspace. She had an instinct about them, that I agreed with at first listen. They were green, and had only recorded one song, but their was something there.

What interested you most about Prima J?
What was most exciting about them was their "girl power" image and spirit. They were like the girls all girls wanted to hang out with.

What does Prima J's music make you feel?
Prima's music makes me feel like Friday night in the car, dressed up with all my homegirls on the way to the club.

When did you know that Prima J would be the next sensation?
I think my first indication that they would be the next thing was when we did the "Rock Star" video. They have 4 million impressions of just that song on YouTube, with 90% of the comments being extremely positive. People have already bought over 150,000 singles with no radio play. That says that people are buying into these girls.

What about Prima J has you passionate about working with them?
What I'm most passionate about with Prima J, is how they are girl's girls. They dont take themselves too seriously and they care about being easy to relate to. They are role models by just being themselves. Its refreshing. And the fact they happen to be latin adds a flavor that we dont see often.

Who would you say Prima reminds you most of?
They remind me of TLC. Girls that are in control of their lives, careers, and relationships.

What track on Prima J’s New Album was the most fun to do?
One of the more interesting tracks on the album is "Tame"! I love that song. Makes me want to dance! It uses an sample by the group Berlin, and its extremely infectious.

Who would you like to get Prima J in the studio with?
I would love to get Prima J in the studio to collab with Fergie. I think that could be an incredible collaboration, The girls did a remix with Akon's new artist Colby O'Donis. That record is Nutz.

Describe Prima J in 10 words or less
