Can you tell us about yourself and your background?
My birth name is Victor Joseph. I'm sure you can figure out how the moniker 'VeeJay' came about from that. Born March 2nd. I'm the Lastborn in a family of four. I would describe myself as a very passionate person, very emotional too. I have a very deep love for creating and performing music and I'm currently studying music in babcock university.
When and why did you start singing ?
I started singing at a young age in my church. Why? Well that was probably just because I had the opportunity to.
Which famous gospel artiste do you admire or learned from ?
One name always comes to mind; J Moss. But I've also been greatly inspired by kirk Franklin.
Does your family have any musical background ?
Well not really. Even though I would say that my parents' love for music greatly influenced my ear for sound. I was majorly influenced by gospel music in my formative years. But then I began to get exposed to a great deal of music too. And now as a musician I'm influenced by many musical forms.
I wouldn't change anything, because I believe everyone has their own standards. The best I can do is be the change I want to see, and that would be projected in the work I do,and the innovations I bring to the table.
