Read all about what he has to say in this interview.  



The Blast Blog:  How are you Seymour Banks?
Seymour Banks:  I am blessed.  I'm alive with a positive mindset.  I can never complain.



The Blast Blog:  You have a new single out called "Bugatti Dreamin'" could you tell the viewers a little bit about that single?
Seymour Banks:  You have to hear it.  It's only a preview of the work I have coming and the diversity of my lyrical content.  Overall I want to become a very successful man by making music essential to the souls of humanity... Well, this is a trap version of that haha.


The Blast Blog:  Who did you work with for the single?
Seymour Banks:   A young man who goes by CR-Me  produced and my big bro Ian Patrick Hill (What IPH Studios) from Pittsburgh was the engineer who recorded it.


The Blast Blog: Are you working on any other projects right now?
Seymour Banks:  Yes I have 4-5 full length projects I'm working on. My debut project, "Love Passion Rock & Roll" will be here the soonest followed by a lot of singles and a couple collaborative mixtapes.


The Blast Blog:   You've collaborated with many indie and up and coming artists, who are some of those artists?
Seymour Banks:   Man too many too name them all.  I'm waiting for some beats from an artist who goes by Ant Bailey to do some work with as one example.  Can't forget my bro J. Paul from South Carolina I'm doing a tape with and two more artists and good friends of mine Mike Quinlan (Miq Cheq) and Shul Z who both sent me some fire music in the past week. Oh and the plug himself OJ Tiago and the homie Hyrbid and I have a dope jam called "Long Way" coming soon.


The Blast Blog:   Who would you like to collaborate in the future?
Seymour Banks:  I'd like to work with Drake on some stuff for the ladies of course... No one is doing it better than him right now haha. Of course Kendrick Lamar on a little more complex work.. I really want to be a light to the youth, I could see he and I going off with some crazy lyrics, metaphors, and punch lines all spreading knowledge to our youth and encouraging them to be better versions of themselves daily. Also, Jhene' Aiko. I love her openness and creativity along with her voice. I swear I've watched the "Comfort Inn Ending" video over 100 times just to hear her voice. I'd proper have to hire someone to wipe the drool from off my lip because that woman is beautiful too haha.


The Blast Blog: Speaking of the future, what are your plans for the rest of the spring?
Seymour Banks:   My goal is to complete all these projects and get out to different cities and let the people see me.  I'll be hitting the streets soon selling my music and meeting new fans... It's really important to me that my fans and supporters know I love and support them as well.  So I want to get out shake hands and show them the real me.


The Blast Blog:  Do you have any shows or upcoming appearances lined up?
Seymour Banks:  I'll be in Memphis May 14th for my bro K Fox's King Of The Mic Soundstage and the following month of June I will be out in Dallas... I have more events Ill be showing my face at too. Follow me on IG for updates @Seymour_Banks... You never know, I might pop up in a new city and hit there open mics even just to introduce myself after a show or something haha. Again, I just want to get out and be where the people who support me can find me. 


The Blast Blog:  Is there anything you would like to mention in this interview that you would like to cover?
Seymour Banks:  If you haven't already, follow me on my social media and stay tuned for a lot of hot new music coming soon.
