Q. Thanks for interviewing with us. Tell us who you are and what you do?

A. My name is Joey Oscar, I’m a world-renowned Professional

Drummer and Music Producer.

I have had the opportunity to travel the world and share my gift on many platforms and musical projects.

Q. Who inspired you to be the man you are today?

A. My father is my greatest inspiration! He purchased my very first drum set at the age of 3, I guess he got tired of me beating on the pots and pans with wooden spoons!

Apparently, he had great plans for me and saw something in me before I even knew who I would one day become. On my 9th birthday my father passed away. I vowed to make him proud and honor him through my gift and passion for music.

Q. Tell us about your company

“Jomoco Music” and how it got started?

A. Jomoco Music is my music production company established in 2007. My wife came up with the name, it is significant because it’s the first initial of my children’s names, my wife and I. The vision for

Jomoco Music was to create a legacy for my children and the generations to come through the diverse sounds of music.

Q. As a male leader what has been the most significant barrier in your career?

A. As a male leader the most significant barrier in my career probably has been the consistency and integrity when it comes to building solid partnerships of equal give and take. I believe there has been some injustices as it relates to integrity and people giving you credit for your work that you have contributed to different artists.

Q. What is your most memorable achievement or accomplishment you have received?

A. My most memorable achievement has been working with some of the most sought out artist in the music industry. I’ve been afforded many opportunities to work with the likes of Rodney Jerkins,

James Fortune, Donell Jones,

Micah Stampley, Kim Burrell,

Morris Day, Dave Hollister,

Denise Williams, Jaheim, Fred Hammond, Day Star Television and so many others. Truly humbled and honored!

Q. Tell us about your single and the motivation behind the song?

A. My single THE ONE, is a R&B/

Trap tune. I wanted to bring a different sound to the listener and combine the old and new dynamic into one. I was a little hesitant to release the song because I was taking a big risk, but hey some risks yield great rewards, definitely glad I went with it!

Q. Was there a time in your career you felt like you wanted to give up?

A. Man, I had so many moments when I just wanted to give up.

Many people who are not in this music vein do not realize the hustle and the drive it takes to simply keep going. I always kept my promise to my dad at the forefront. My dad was the ultimate provider, I watched him run businesses, work hard, and never complain. He instilled in me that same drive so even when I have those weak moments I reach back to that promise and find my inner strength to keep going.

Q. Can you give us some advice to the next generation of male leaders?

A. The most valuable advice I can give to the next generation is to go the distance! Don’t allow anyone to talk you out of your goals, visions or operating in our gifts.

You are unique and every gift given is from The Most High God.
