Taking Off with Airplane Boys

We're the Airplane Boys, and we're here with Young Hollywood.

This is Gold Ribbons. I'm Oliver Trevena here at the Young Hollywood Studio with Beck Motley and Bon Voyage. Who are the Airplane Boys. Hey guys, how are you? It's a bit early in the morning, isn't it? We need a bit of energy.

Damn your ribbons are gone. Are you the same girl I used to know? I used to know. I used to know. Hey. Hey. Are you the same girl I used to know?

How did it all start guys? Because you, you're fresh on the scene. How did this all come about?

Um, we used to perform with my cousin's jazz band. So we used to chill on the festivals or street festivals and just play for like any crowd. And then it just got serious one day. We just walked into a room. We were like a couple of friends and we were like, yo, let's go. It's a name we need a name of something that represents flight. And then we came up with the Airplane Boys and the rest is history. We gotta be in the sky for us. Ah, that's a lie. For us know Stevey. But I'm all sharing I'm all you look so ready. You cook them good just so gritty. Crocker I'm deep I'm so buried in love I can't think of the last time I felt like this you're so lovely and.

Obviously, uh Bon Voyage, Beck Motley, that's not your real names. I'm assuming.

There there's your real names, bro.

No, they're not. They're not because I've done my research.

No, um Bon Voyage. I mean it was it's it's a name a man gave me. Right. And um it's really just representing the whole movement as well. Leaving things behind when we came up with the name as well. We're coming from an old name called Rocksteady and people would confuse that. And with rock steady that dance. We don't dance like that, you know. So um definitely it was just something that represented us and and the problems that we were just saying bye to and everything and you know.

Are you the same girl I used to know? I used to know. I used to know. Hey. Hey. Are you the same girl I used to know? I used to know. Are you the same girl I used to know?

Recently touring Um J. Cole and Snoop Dogg. You're in the UK, right? Yeah, I was How was that?

Oh, in Glasgow, Scotland, that was the best experience. Like the crowd didn't know who we were. They didn't have they never heard our music. And they celebrated us like we were like U2 or something, man. Like they were just open-minded and it's the people that make the environment. So we were just really, you know, grateful for that.

Who are your inspirations? Who are your inspirations?

Okay. Kanye West.

That was so good the way you did that. You know, back and forth. That's a partnership. I love that. Because otherwise I passed that question to two people before and they just jump on each other.

My thing so kind, like stone ages. But she never been stone for ages. Think highly enrage with you and gets away without me as I ages. Oh baby, tell her to leave. How you got my heart beating on repeat? Trip from the past, have a seat, have a seat. It's a whole different women gotta say double it.

If you're in Toronto, how would you say, how was Toronto different to Los Angeles? Apart from my queen being on your money. No.

The sunlight, man, the trees, the right now it's freezing in Toronto, man. So it's tough to be out here. The people are just so open-minded and relaxed, you know. You can get good fish and chips in Toronto. Yeah, I was surprised about. And poutines. That made me very happy. Very good poutines. Yeah. Very good.
