“Everything I am doing is just about how can we be positive and put some positivity into the world,” says Maejor in an exclusive interview about his new single “Nirvana” and his upcoming debut solo album, Frequency.
“The song is all about being yourself not worrying about what other people say being original, being unapologetic, not afraid to be who you are, with all my music I just wanna put out positive messages I just wanna put uplifting inspirational messages and that also extends into the video which is basically a bean of paying forward.”
Maejor describes the music video which was released today (4/4):
“At the beginning, there is a guy that needs help, I won’t go into too many details, I help him it follows him down the road he helps the next person, who then helps the next person like a chain of events it shows how each action we take creates a ripple effect, you know.”
He continues “We want to put out good into the world and we never know where will lead and at the end there is a girl who has cancer she has a bald head and no one is playing with her and she is across the street watching some kids playing and I sit down next to her and I can see that she is sad and so I cut my hair bold to match her, she starts laughing and then brighten her day and we go over and play with the kids.”
“I don’t think I write the lyrics of my songs, I hear them in my head it’s like a gift comes from another dimension you know, from heaven, from God, whatever you wanna say, but it’s not from me, I just hear them and I just write down and I just recorded, I don’t even write it down actually, I just recorded, that’s how the music came for that one.”
“And the beats we used from all over the world, we used some music from the Middle East, from Israel, I believe music is a universal language that combines everything together.”
He is also releasing his 11-track Album around the end of May 2019, which will be all about uplifting inspirational music, “but it’s about frequency so it’s not always in the lyrics but the vibration of the music is meant to lift you up.”
