We had the good fortune of connecting with Javo Amir and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Javo, why did you decide to pursue a creative path?
Honestly I’m not sure. All I know is that from what I can remember, I’ve always loved to entertain lol . Just making people happy made me feel happy. Music and performing comes naturally to me. So why not pursue something you love ? Especially is it’s a passion.

Let’s talk shop? Tell us more about your career, what can you share with our community?
Well I’m a artist who writes , and record my own music. The process was not easy I never thought I would be the one creating my own music. Growing up I just wanted to sing and perform. What I’m learning is that to be taking seriously who have to depend on yourself. If you love something so much know one can do it better than you!! When you want things done you have to be the one to step up!! That’s why I’m so grateful that I invested in myself and now I’m able to write and create whenever or however I feel. Even though I would love help sometimes, but I’m grateful that I don’t need it..I want the world to know that you can do anything you want if you’re passionate, and dedicated and to rely, and depend on yourself!!!

If you had a friend visiting you, what are some of the local spots you’d want to take them around to?
Since I live in Houston we would definitely go get some good food!! Maybe start at brunch. Then since I love adventure, I would probably have us go ride some scooters or bikes. We will definitely be stopping by the liquor store lol. Anybody who know me know I love a good time and a turn up!! So wherever the drinks takes us we will have a ball!! If it’s karaoke, a bar, lounge, or club!! We could even do a game night as long as we have our drinks it will be a good time lol.

The Shoutout series is all about recognizing that our success and where we are in life is at least somewhat thanks to the efforts, support, mentorship, love and encouragement of others. So is there someone that you want to dedicate your shoutout to?
My mom is the reason why I go so hard to this day!! She writes poems and was a spoken word artist. I seen her performing all around Texas and she inspired everything that I am today!! If it wasn’t for my mom I wouldn’t be where I am today. Also have to give Credit to my older brother, he is a music producer who plays the piano. So these two are my biggest supporters.
