Jéssyka De Souza Fernandes (Originally born as Jessica) and Professionally known as JAESSEY, is a Mixed-race Recording Artist/Singer-Songwriter, Writer and Actress from Norway. We are chatted with her and here questions we asked her:
SO HOW DOES IT FEEL TO BE BACK JAESSEY?
It feels great if there’s one thing I felt in my life I was born to do
is to help others, especially through the gifts I got, first of all through
my own music, the singing, songwriting, generally just the writing
also you know.
AND SO WHY THE NAME JAESSEY?
That is to identify myself no matter what other names I was known under. It is an incredible story even for myself what I found out last year (2019) and why I prefer to never use my own name.
WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT RELIGION? I MEAN YOU KNOWN AS A CHRISTIAN?
The world we live today Christianity would be a tittle, so I do not describe myself normally to people like “oh hi I’m a Christian” that’s why my music will NEVER be gospel. However, I do believe in the Holy Trinity, and I respect ALL religion. I do not judge, and that’s what I call Christianity, to not judge but to love instead.
WHAT IS THE BEST MEMORY OF YOUR LIFE IF YOU CAN ONLY DESCRIBE ONE?
Wow, that was a great one… so many things I could say, let me pick the one where a woman who worked at a place I lived in Volda, Norway said to me “You’re the strongest person I’ve ever known”, she is not my mother, but I saw the tears in her eyes as she said this and I felt love, real love, and how she saw the unfairness in our world, Miranda is her name. I love her as a friend, and I will never forget her.
JAESSEY PLEASE TELL US SO FAR ABOUT THE SONGS YOU HAVE RELEASED SO FAR?
I can say simply this, everything I write is from my heart, my feelings, I write what I live that’s one of my principal and motto. As one of my friend, who also sings once said “Writing is therapy”, and I agree with her.
DO YOU ENJOY HELPING OTHERS WITH YOUR MUSIC?
Yes, I love it because just like God used others to help me through their music back when I needed it most as a teen, today my dream became true, I am an Artist, myself writing my own music, lyrics to help others to go through whatever it might be, but in really hard times music helps.
OK, SO YOU HAVE JUST LEARNED THEY’RE MAKING A MOVIE ABOUT YOUR LIFE, AND YOU CONTROL THE CASTING. WHO SHOULD PLAY YOU?
*Laugh* well if I got the title of the story and of course it is extremely emotional only I know my story but, I would need to play myself however we would need teens and kids to play me as a child, kid, teen back then.
