Artist Statement
“Quarantine“ is a song about my life during winter break of 2020. I felt scared, encaged in my room all break. The fear of someone watching me haunted me. Being alone was the worst. I felt like I was trapped and that this was life forever as if nothing was going to change. I didn’t talk to anyone really, I just recorded music until it was over. This is one of the songs that was created.
Jorj Lemay. Jorj (Jorj= George) was born in Philadelphia and has eight siblings (he’s number 7). He started making music because of his brother, and branched out with his own music in July 2020 due to COVID. He loves making beats and music and sees it as a journal, somewhere to express where he’s going with his life. He says, “As passionate as I am, sometimes I wonder what I would do if I didn’t create music, then I remind myself to apply the pressure and just go for it.”
