V-Henny: How did you develop “Cosmic R&B” and what does it mean to you?
Galexy: I never tried to force myself into one sound. I grew up on R&B, hip-hop, and pop, and I love all of it, so my music naturally blends those worlds. But I’ve always been drawn to songs that feel bigger than the moment — cinematic, emotional, almost like they’re floating in space. That’s what “Cosmic R&B” means to me. It’s real feelings, but elevated.
V-Henny: How has NYC influenced your creativity?
Galexy: New York makes you figure yourself out fast. The city is loud, diverse, ambitious — and you either get swallowed or you sharpen up. Being around so many different cultures and energies pushed me to be fearless creatively. It also gave me edge. My sound has that balance — softness and grit, vulnerability and survival.
V-Henny: How do you tap into vulnerability and confidence?
Galexy: To me, they’re the same thing. Being vulnerable is confident. When I write, I’m not trying to sound strong or dramatic — I’m just being honest. Some songs are soft. Some are detached. Some feel powerful. I don’t overthink it. I let the song flow.
V-Henny: What was Sofar Sounds like?
Galexy: Sofar was beautiful because it’s so intimate. There’s no hiding. It’s just you and the room. People are actually listening — like really listening. That experience made me more intentional about how I perform. It reminded me that connection matters more than production.
V-Henny: What can fans expect at Sounds of Brazil?
Galexy: Energy. Control. Feeling. I don’t get on stage just to sing — I want people to feel something shift. There will be intimate moments and there will be strong, commanding moments. I want people to leave feeling elevated, like they experienced something real and I truly feel like I delivered that.
V-Henny: When did you realize the importance of being intentional?
Galexy: Pretty early. I saw that talent isn’t enough. There are so many talented people who don’t move strategically. I didn’t want that. So I started paying attention to timing, visuals, branding, how I show up. Creativity is important, but discipline and consistency is what sustains it.
V-Henny: What do you hope people walk away feeling?
Galexy: Understood. And stronger. I don’t want people to just sit in emotion — I want them to move through it. My music isn’t about staying hurt. It’s about evolving.
V-Henny: Who was Galexy before music?
Galexy: Before music, I was always in my head. Observing. Imagining. Building little worlds in my mind. I started writing and creating around 12, and that’s when I realized I could turn those thoughts into art with harmonies
V-Henny: Something surprising about you?
Galexy: I’m way more analytical than people think. I feel deeply, but I also study. I pay attention to patterns, strategy, growth. I care about building something that lasts.
V-Henny: Long-term vision?
Galexy: I’m building something sustainable. I don’t want a moment — I want longevity. I want my catalog to age well. I want impact. I want to create space for artists who move with depth and clarity.
