New York City has always been a hub of artists who create groundbreaking music. Cultivating talented acts who aren’t afraid to step outside the box and craft something personal and unique. Stepping into the ranks of those creative forces is Victory Jones, a pop artist with an edgy urban-alternative twist. Earlier this year Victory unveiled her debut single, the anthemic and uplifting,“Warriors”. The song is the first release from the upcoming EP, A Prelude To Victory, which this formidable woman is currently putting the finishing touches on. She also has a full album in the pipeline due for release later this year as well, entitled: Basements & Rooftops. “Warriors” is a biographical musical creation that tells the story of Victory Jones and her road to becoming Victory. It chronicles her journey of being down and out and then making a resolution to create the life she wanted by deciding to embrace her inner strength while staying true to who she is first: an artist.
When asked about the inspiration behind the video, Victory shares, “Warriors is a song about finding the knowledge and strength to pursue your passion and the decisions one must make to do so while on that journey. It’s a universal story of coming into one’s own, and making the choice to follow the ‘light’ or thing that your are drawn to most, whether its inside or external. It’s about surrendering and opening yourself up to the possibilities of going after your dreams, regardless of whats going on around you, in order to fulfill your destiny and live your best life. The Warriors video is a modern-day take on film noir. It represents my journey to self-discovery and contains a lot of visual metaphors. Almost every image in the video is symbolic of rising to embrace the inner warrior. A lot of these juxtaposing images, light vs. dark or innocence and naivety vs. knowledge and wisdom, represent the push and pull of opposing forces and how they shape who I am as a woman and artist.”
