(L to R: A.Ware and Corey Davis)
“Yo, this is for the ladies. My name’s Corey Davis,” Corey smooth talks into a computer mic. As the only female around, I didn’t know exactly how to respond but he wants you to know that he is very considerate, not heartless, and is looking...
A.ware and Corey of Mach 5 get around. They keep their hands in everything. The gifted guys are into the development, visual, and of course, musical side of things involving the industry. It doesn’t take a 13-year-old boy studying three degrees at Morehouse College to realize that these guys are an automatic pick for the “Return of the Duos” theme at Perfect Attendance these weekend. But they are not too proud, they respect her for what she does and are excited about Saturday night.
“Fadia is an innovator. Her name holds a lot of clout. So if she wants us to be down we know she’s legit, we’ll fuck with her,” Corey shows love. They fail to truly acknowledge how much clout their names hold.
Mach 5 have one of the most viewed lifestyle and entertainment blog sites in the state. Greedmont Park is not just a blog anymore, according to the duo, it’s that second lifestyle you live once you get home. Our Greedmont Playground, a musical compilation is a project that keeps them in touch with music. Artists like Big Sean, Mums FP, Young Lyxx, and fellow Perfect Attendance performers FatKidsBrotha have tracks on the mixtape.
With over twenty bloggers, the site may turn into something that will allow others to social network but for now, they are mainly looking to financially expand the brand and site very soon. “Top secret, classified, and confidential. But you’ll be the first to know,” Corey explains. Their blog may be a favorite of many, but they have their personal blog list. “Oh Snap Kid, Art Nouveau, Femme Fetale, and The Girls I Love are all blogs we check out,” states Corey.
Taking it back to the music, the duo will not be placed in any type of box, category, or group. They refuse to participate in genre-fication, if you will. “We consider ourselves very versatile. Our music is universal so if anything we would be pop. But more like a powerpop,” Corey says. “Yeah…powerpop,” A.ware slowly agrees.
They have cuts that mimic their diversity. The 2009 album Sex on a Sunday has upbeat, bouncy instrumentals and others with that slow grind and hi-hat in the beat.
They work so hard that they don’t have time to keep up with everyone in the underground hip hop scene, but they do enjoy Niko Villamor, Pill, and Donnis. “If you fucking with Niko, you’re listening to good music,” A.ware confirms. They admit though, that the underground scene in Atlanta can be redundant and they have to reaffirm what why they do this where they do it. I’m passionate about my shit. We are all like crabs in a barrel sometimes, all this climbing over each other. We really need to make a ladder, climb to the top, and knock all these other wack niggas down,” he continues.
As they attempt to upgrade pop music, March 6th they are just trying to perform and have fun. “We want you to leave with some kind of feeling,” A. ware expresses what he wants. And it’s a competition, so the show doesn’t change just because there is an exceptional wager. “I want to get on stage and do my thing. Music is us. We do that,” A.ware ends. Point. Blank. Period.
