GQ: For those new to your music, how would you describe your sound?
Neo Jessica Joshua: An eclectic mix of everything I listened to when I was growing up, from R&B to electronic, and from Motown and jazz to world music.
GQ: What do you love most about making music?
NJ: I love the creative process: sitting in a room with a blank sheet of paper, knowing that by the end of the day a new song will have been written that no one else in the world could have written apart from me. It amazes me every time.
GQ: How far is your music a reflection of your identity?
NJ: I’m a British artist whose music is heavily influenced by black-American and black-British genres. Where I grew up, we listened to garage, grime and funky house, which formed a huge part of my identity as a teenager. Knowing artists of black origin were beginning to find their way on the UK music scene was inspiring.
