Electrik Red Says: 'It's Okay If You're Not A Stepford Wife' | Launch New Website...

Electrik Red recently spoke with SOHH's Soul Rebel to explain the meaning of their album title, working with The-Dream, producing television shows and how they naked-pranked Ne-Yo on tour.

Check out the excerpt!

"If there were blogs in the '80's I would love to hear Madonna answer some of these questions when she was creating "Like A Virgin," "Papa Don't Preach" and all these girl power-esque songs. We're trying to do the same thing and make the same impact in 2009, its just we have different issues, the world has definitely changed. We're just doing it our way but in the same vein." - Binkie from Electrik Red
