Although he was age 10 years old when American Pop icon, Michael Jackson passed away in 2009, rising Liberian artiste, Darius McGill also known as Darius Vévo cannot forget the huge influence the late singer had on his music career. 
This is evident in the career trajectory of the young talent who has evolved into an all-round entertainer as a songwriter, rapper and dancer. The young talent is propelled by the success of his recent single entitled Miss Earth featuring favourite Liberian talents, Deuc3z & Adlipz
Speaking about Michael Jackson’s influence, Darius disclosed that the pop icon “was a god on earth to me. He shaped me to be a dancer in the first place while growing up. I listened to Michael Jackson until he passed away. I continued to dance until the year 2018 when I met Adlipzs & Deuc3z. We talked about doing music, then two years later when COVID 19 lockdown came, we hit the studio and started recording music here and there until I dropped my first record, “Perfect” featuring Deuc3z.
“Growing up, I thought I was going to be a successful break-dancer. I travelled in and out of Liberia to Australia and it was such a beautiful experience. However, the city shaped me was Congo Town, Grain Coast but the world knows it to be Liberia,” he recalls.
Born September 24, 1999 in Congo Town, Liberia, Darius Vévo has evolved into a songwriter, rapper and dancer. He started writing music in his early days of college while also playing instruments in various churches. Quite unsurprisingly, all these led him to pursue a dream in the music industry in 2020. By 2001, the 1.78m 5.10 feet tall artiste was ready to drop his debut single with visuals entitled ‘Perfect.’ Since then m he has dropped another single, ‘White Noise’ among others.
On what fans should expect next from him, he said, “the ongoing first phase of my career trajectory is all about introducing a new the genre we call ‘GR8.’ It’s our own genre created by my team and this is based on feedback from fans who come back to say, “when you make music it’s great not just good, great.” I can say that my fans should expect a body of work coming out mid-2023. As for now, there’s still a few singles that’s going to be released.”
