Anything can happen in the mainstream music industry it��s just a matter of the mainstream industry to hop on to it. We recently had Psy with Gangnam Style that broke all kinds of records. Back in those days we had the Latin Reggaeton Explosion. Is Asian influence in mainstream music seen as too ��different�� and novelty? Is the industry unwilling to take a chance on it? This is something that always really puzzles us. When you're putting together a championship winning team you look for people who are incredibly committed, persevering, talented, great listeners, and have the same goals and dreams.

Having singers, a songwriter and a Dj/Rapper MC in the same team felt like we were putting together a super-group. How do you feel you complement each other coming up through these different areas, and what do you bring out in each other? The reason why we decided to unite, come together and create The Bilz & Kashif is because we felt our experiences would complement each other. Kashif, you��re a singer-songwriter formerly of a boy band, Master D is a producer, and Vicious is a DJ. In addition, we��ve actually paved the way for a lot of new artists to be a product of North America and showcase that talent. We made sacrifices, we put in the time, we put in the hard work, energy and passion to get where we are today. We helped create the movement in North America. Back then it was Rishi, Jay Sean & Juggy D, Raghav, Sona Family etc. Our challenge was to help to create and build the industry, and make our mark and take our place in the urban desi scene as a legendary group. We were all on our individual grind for years until we decided to grind together as a unit. That would make us laugh so much because that wasn't our reality and besides even overnight successes aren't overnight. I remember when The Bilz & Kashif first came on to the scene people would think we were overnight successes. Today's generation sometimes forgets that success comes from years of hard work. What were the challenges and struggles that you had to overcome to reach the point you��re at now? We're very proud of our story because we really 'started from the bottom'. But one of the subjects you touch on in your music is that of struggling and paying dues. The international success you��re enjoying now must be so overwhelming. Now the group is back with the new album 'The Trinity' and we caught up with the group to get some inside scoop on the release! The then released their album follow-up album Breaking Barriers providing us with hits like 'On The Dancefloor' and 'Single'. The Bilz and Kashif first won over the masses with their collaboration '2 Step Bhangra', which led to the solidification of the Canadian group.
