We were lucky to catch up with Jhyroy Quyroy recently and have shared our conversation below.

Hi Jhyroy Quyroy, thanks for joining us today. Can you talk to us about how you learned to do what you do?

We play bass and lead guitar and both rap. We grew up around music and it’s hard to pinpoint exactly when we started learning the craft. Our biggest goal is to keep learning and to get better every day. Playing and practicing together is a huge part of our success because we can encourage each other and push ourselves towards greatness.

As always, we appreciate you sharing your insights and we’ve got a few more questions for you, but before we get to all of that can you take a minute to introduce yourself and give our readers some of your back background and context?

We are Jhyroy/Quyroy two brothers who make up a music duo from New Orleans, Louisiana. Jhyroy plays the bass and QuyRoy plays lead guitar. We’re both on the same sports teams, though Jhyroy prefers basketball and Quyroy likes football. We are in a lot of way two sides of a coin. We both rap and make music together.

The biggest thing that we want people to know about us is that we’re a team! We stick together and do everything together!

We love music and even though we’re still just teenagers, we want to make our mark on music!

For you, what’s the most rewarding aspect of being a creative?

Jhyroy: because of how long I’ve been doing music it comes easier to me than anything now. It’s like instinct. So I would say that the most rewarding aspect would be being able to make use of all those years of hard work and practice and time developed skill whenever I want to. Anytime I make music, I’m reminded of how back then I didn’t know how to do what seems so easy now.

Quyroy: I think the most rewarding part of being a creative is taking my thoughts and feelings and ideas that are in my head and turning them into something that will be around for a while. No one can read my thoughts but I can put my thoughts into words and put words to music and people can hear and maybe even relate to it.

We’d love to hear your thoughts on NFTs. (Note: this is for education/entertainment purposes only, readers should not construe this as advice)

Jhyroy: I don’t know a lot about it but it kinda seems like a scam. It’s not that I’m closed minded to anything but I don’t really get why anyone would pay real money for it. People don’t even really pay for music like that anymore, instead they pay to see their favorite artists in concert or maybe purchase merch. With that being said I’d get it if it was tangible or if it was a real world experience. If someone buys an art print or pays to go to the Louvre that makes more sense to me than an NFT.

QuyRoy: I agree that it seems like a scam. It’s probably more like something that people who have a lot of time and money would get into. My sister got a free NFT one time but we never could figure out what to do with it. It was just a picture that could be accessed when she logged onto a portal but it didn’t seem to have an actual value or use. Im sure the experts have a better understanding of what to do with NFTs than me.
