“You don’t design the message to the crowd. The message attracts the crowd. That’s the theory we’re based on.” – Megz Kelli
“I’m a big Tribe fan. Q-Tip did a show here at St. Edwards my freshman year. I thought I have to do something musically as soon as I leave this place.” – Dougie Do
“Our music doesn’t fit in a box. We’re going to keep doing what we’re doing. If it picks up, it picks up.” – Brotha Mike
“We always went through a certain cycle. Our old songs have gone through that cycle so we needed to create new ones.” – Derek
CirQlation now available for streaming and on iTunes!
