Raised in a musical family that helped
to shape and cultivate his talent, Newark, New Jersey's 18-year old Victor DaZe's talent was evident early on-singing and
dancing from as early as the 3rd grade. Victor adds, "I'm the youngest of 6 siblings, and they all have supported me
in their own ways-always giving me great advice. My mom sang opera when I was growing up, so music has always been around
me-from Pop/R&B, to Hip-hop, Soul, Classical, Rock and Jazz. I get new ideas and inspiration from a little bit of every
musical style that's out there." Victor DaZe is also a musician and songwriter.
Growing up, Victor DaZe was strongly influenced
by legendary artists Stevie Wonder, Donny Hathaway, Michael Jackson, and Prince. Today, he is impacted by the music of Usher,
Justin Timberlake, Rihanna, Miguel, and Chris Brown. Victor's own sound has been described as a blend of Pop/Hip-Hop and R&B,
with a little taste of Rock. His vocal sound makes his music feel unique and distinctively all its own. This kid also has
a great look, is a trained dancer, models, and also has experience acting. Make no mistake - Victor DaZe is the total package.
A graduate of The New Jersey Performing
Arts Center Scholarship Program, Victor DaZe has not only been a student of singing-currently being trained by Troy Randall
(Patti LaBelle, Wyclef Jean, TLC), but Victor has also taught hip-hop dance and leads theatrical workshops- teaching younger
kids how important creativity and the arts are to their growth as individuals. He's also been awarded The Governor's Award
for Music, The Music Award from The New Jersey Board of Freeholders, and was a finalist in The New Jersey "Shout Down
Drugs" televised competition. One of Victor's performance highlights as a singer/performer was winning a scholarship
that allowed him the honor to travel and sing throughout Italy, performing as a soloist and also with a full choir everyday
for 20 days. Victor may also soon be performing at the legendary Apollo.
With Victor's unmistakable blend of Pop-driven,
Hip-hop, and R&B-it goes without saying that anticipation for a new music release from this one-of-a-kind talent has been
running high. DaZe delivers beyond expectations on "Movin' On" - a vibrant, musically diverse song that sets a Rock-layered
Lenny Kravitz feel guitar riff with an anthem-styled Soulful, Pop melody. DaZe also shines on "It's All About You"
- a Pop/Hip-Hop, vocal-rich driven song that is well produced, and has a memorable hook with a head-nodding beat. Both songs
are soon to be released as singles with the help of his producers Fullee Loaded Productions. Two other songs that stand out,
and are 2 of Victor's favorites are "Crazy Wild" and the ballad, "This Is True Love".
Stay on the lookout for this young new
rising star, as songs are being released, along with the launch of his YouTube channel. Victor is also preparing an exciting
show to support and promote his new releases, so you'll be able to catch him live in concerts, and also on the web performing.
In closing, Victor adds, "I've been working hard, not just for myself, but I really want this and hope my fans like my
music. I want people to hear my music and feel good; help them get over or out of that relationship, or give them hope. I
want my music to be an experience-a good one."
