Songstress/Songwriter Charlie Vox’s New JourneyWritten by 						Isis Nicole
Singer/songwriter Charlie Vox, by way of Jersey City, N.J., is making  her big break this year from behind the scenes and onto the front stage.  Having opened for Destiny’s Child, as well as penning songs for artists  like Rihanna and Melanie Fiona, Charlie is finally letting her own  voice be heard. In this interview, she discusses her start in the music  business, why it’s easier to “lie instead,” and her commitment to music.

GlossMagazineOnline (GMO): How did you get your start in the music business?
Charlie Vox: Funny  enough, I began performing my  own material and fell into songwriting.  Songwriting found me. I was  working on my demo, and the first song I  wrote got placed. I never  stopped performing while writing for other  artists. 
GMO: You wrote for Rihanna and Melanie Fiona, and even opened for Destiny’s Child! What was that experience like?
Charlie: It was surreal performing alongside major acts, and songwriting for other artist was amazing. 
GMO: What is it like being so involved with music magic behind the scenes?
Charlie: I feel blessed  to be able to give artists a  voice. Everyone is not able to draw the  picture for others to color  it. I feel lucky to be able to do that. It’s  an honor to share my  stories through song for others to enjoy.
GMO: When and why did you decide to transition your voice from songwriter to singer?
Charlie: I always knew I  was supposed to be an  artist, and I never gave up that dream as I  continued to write for  other artists. Now when everything else came  along, the songwriting and  producing, I had no idea that would be apart  of my journey. I could’ve  never lived with the regret if I had given up  on my dream along the  way. 
GMO: Is it ever a challenge to balance the two?
Charlie: No, it’s not  difficult. I can flip the  switch on and off between artist and writer.  It’s like being two  different people. It’s kind of cool.
GMO: What’s your most prized accomplishment(s) to date?
Charlie: Last week, we  shot my video, and I dreamt  of that day all my life. That was truly an  accomplishment. It was  definitely a day to remember! 
GMO: Since you are an established  artist, do you feel like you  pretty much know the ropes or are you at  times outside of your comfort  zone?
Charlie: No, I feel  like everyday is a chance for  me to learn something new. Even though  I’ve been doing this for a  while, I feel like I’m finally getting my  artist career off the ground.  So, I’m learning new things everyday.
GMO: What was the inspiration behind your song “Lie Instead?”
Charlie: Fresh out of a  relationship where I wasn’t  sure if we were together or apart. Friends  and family would constantly  ask if we were still together and I decided  to “Lie Instead!” It was  much easier to lie than explain our status.
GMO: When is your album Things I Never Said scheduled to release?
Charlie: Spring 2012
GMO: I read in an article that you will  be exploring the ups and  downs of relationships. Is love and heartbreak  a subject you’re all too  familiar with?
Charlie: I’m a little  too familiar with heartbreak  in relationships (laughs). What can I say? I  love “love,” and I love  hard. But what I’ve learned is that the nature  of all relationships,  whether they are romantic, platonic or even  relationships with your  family––they all have the same core. It begins  and ends with respect. 
GMO: These days, do you write most of your songs or do you have a favorite songwriter to help you out a little?
Charlie: I love  collaborating. I enjoy  incorporating my point of view with someone  else’s. Together we can  paint a picture from different perspectives. I  often collaborate with  Curtis Richardson, my longtime writing and  production partner, the  writing team Jackson/Croft, and Angelique  Cinelu.
GMO: How do you set yourself apart from other R&B artists?
Charlie: I am committed  to doing things my way. I  don’t look to other artist to set the pace  for my career. Lastly, I am  honest with my lyrics and won’t sing a song  if I have not experienced  whatever the lyrics are conveying. 
GMO: What music trends would you like to see disappear?
Charlie: Nothing in music really bothers me right now.
GMO: What Internet trends would you like to see disappear?
Charlie: I’m not sure  if this counts as a trend but  I know “e-bullying” is a huge issue. I’ve  worked with youth groups, so  I’m very passionate about issues affecting  the next generation.
GMO: What is the craziest thing that happened to you while on previous tours?
Charlie: While  performing, there was a power  outage. The drummer kept playing, the  horns never stopped, and I kept  on singing! It was great! 
GMO: Any future music videos, tours, or projects you care to share with us?
Charlie: I’m excited  for the world to see my video  “Lie Instead,” please stay tuned! It’s  gonna be amazing! And of course  my album is due out spring of next year.  
GMO: What can listeners expect to hear from you as start your new chapter as an artist?
Charlie: Along with  great music, I’m excited to  kick off my after school mentoring program  for teen girls. I just want  to be an inspiration to anyone who has ever  had a dream. It took me a  minute to get here, and I want to inspire  others to go for it. 
GMO: Any advice to aspiring artists?
Charlie: Never, ever, ever, quit.

So last night I went to illroots launch party w/ friends and got my #illamerica nailsdid by @astrowifey for the event. I had lots of fun, especially when the beers became free. I also got to meet a few new faces and catch up with Darnell. Best moment: when my nails got called FRESH. Unfortunately people didn’t really break out of their circles, but I did get to hand out a few biz cards. Even learned that Chiddy Bang was in the building. That DJ should have played ‘The Good Life’ from that Taco Bell commercial cz that songs a hit!
