Behind The Lens: Jay Fizzy (Part Duex)

---

What can fans expect from you this year? Any new music, projects, or milestones you're aiming for?

This year, fans are going to hear a lot more sides of me. I’m working across different genres—rap, hip-hop, and R&B—really expanding my sound. I plan to drop at least two more EPs and lock in some collaborations, whether that’s with artists in the industry or local talent. It’s all about growth and showing versatility.

You’re creating a song in a brand-new genre—what’s the name of it, and how would you describe the sound?

I haven’t created a new genre name yet, but I’ve been experimenting with different sounds. I’m blending R&B, hip-hop, and rap, and even tapping into some techno-style beats with an R&B feel. It’s more about mixing vibes right now and finding what feels natural to me.

Which of your songs best amplifies the feelings of love, freedom, or pure joy?

I’d say my track Vroom really shows a big part of my personality. It’s about having a good time, catching a vibe, being around good energy, and just enjoying life. Whether it’s being outside, around women, or just moving through the community—it’s all about freedom and fun.

Which song in your catalog best expresses heartbreak, sorrow, or a time of loss?

Right now, I don’t have a specific song focused on heartbreak, but I do have a lot of freestyle videos where I talk about emotions and real situations. Some of that comes from times when I was locked up, reflecting on how I felt about certain people and experiences.

If a new biopic dropped today, whose life story in music would you want to see and why?

I’d say Fivio Foreign. He’s been speaking real facts over the past few years and came into the game strong. He built his name, helped push other artists forward, and really made an impact in drill music. I’d want to learn from that—how to stay strong and keep going in today’s music era.

What’s a book, podcast, TV show, or movie you’d recommend right now and what drew you to it?

I’d recommend the podcast It Is What It Is with Cam’ron and Mase. They mix real talk with humor, and it keeps your attention. As a businessman, I respect how they expanded beyond music into something bigger.

For something more local, I’d say Victor The Connection—he’s doing a lot for Connecticut, giving artists a platform and speaking on real topics that matter to the community.

What’s been the hardest life lesson you’ve had to learn and how did it shape your growth?

One of the hardest moments for me was toward the end of 2024. I was really getting active with my music and performing, then had to take a step back. That pause slowed down my momentum and all the work I was putting in. It taught me patience and made me even more focused on coming back stronger.

Which family member gives you the most inspiration and what about them fuels your passion?

My grandfather inspires me the most. He always taught me that if you believe in something, you can achieve it—as long as you’re willing to work for it. That mindset stuck with me, and it keeps me pushing forward no matter what.

Where do you go, physically or mentally, when it’s time to create?

When it’s time to create, I like to put myself in a calm environment where I can think freely. Sometimes I just take time for myself, clear my head, and focus on making music people can relate to. I always try to create something people can vibe with and connect to.

What’s a call to action for fans and where can fans connect with you to follow the journey?

You can connect with me on Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok. I’m also dropping music and freestyle videos on Bandcamp. If you’re looking to collaborate—music, podcasts, anything creative—tap in and stay tuned.
