3. WHY I CHOSE THE INTERNET ?
The Internet are a soul/R&B group that
provides chill vibes. Their sound has a
calming effect which allows me to work
in any situation with their music playing.
I chose this group because they all have
different stories that contribute to their
music.
Each member either produces or adds
something that brings a track flavour.
Their chill and calm vibes they emit
during interviews expresses their
support towards each other.
WHEN DID THEY
START ?
The Internet started in 2011, Syd and Matt
wanting to get more out of music than being part
of the group Odd Future. Wanting to get further in
music decided to create a group. As if they were
meant to be they all had mutual friends which
allowed them to connect with each other. They
have been a six band member group ever since.

8. WHY DOES THE INTERNET INSPIRE ME ?
The Internet inspires me through their lyrics.
I love how through their music they talk about issues that people go through.
Some are the popular interests such as drugs, girls and cocaine which is in their
song called Cocaine.
However there is hidden meanings in their songs. Society sometimes has to
depend on their egos to get what the they want in life,To get to the top.
The Internet shows that the feelings hidden behind the egos are what is really
inside.
As a group they want the lyrics to relate to people situations such as breakups, or
depression what they have been through as individuals.

9. THE INTERNET
2 NEW THINGS I HAVE LEARNT ABOUT THEM
● The Internet has had fears
about where their music will
get them. They realise their
music can't be compared to
existing music. However
they feel this allows them to
go outside the box with their
music. So they feel
sometimes people will not
like their music.
● Their youngest band
member Steve Lacey is 17
in his last year of high
school.
