To The Ceiling by VXXK & Bailey Jehl
"Three years back, 'To The Ceiling' came into existence. I recall perfecting the beat, meticulously crafting the rhythm to capture the song's essence. When Bailey added her lyrics and vocals, it felt like the missing piece of the puzzle had finally fallen into place. The excitement of receiving her recorded vocals was amazing, and I dove into the post production process to bring our creation to life.
However, just as we were putting the finishing touches on the song, the world was thrown into chaos by the arrival of COVID-19. Like so many others, I found myself grappling with uncertainty, putting my musical ambitions on hold as I navigated the challenges of the pandemic. It was a tough decision, especially coming off the high of releasing two successful singles with Sony Music and making waves in the European dance charts.
Taking a step back to reassess my path forward, I realized that I needed a change. Instead of releasing the song under my old stage name, I felt a strong urge to reinvent myself and embrace a new identity that better reflected my evolution as an artist. And so, VXXK was born.
Pronounced "Vick," this new persona represented a fresh start, an opportunity to break free from the past and carve out my own path. With 'To The Ceiling' as my debut under this new name, I felt a renewed sense of purpose and excitement as I ventured into uncharted territory. Looking back on that decision now, I can confidently say that it was the right thing I did." - VXXK
