Janockeil, a talented R&B artist hailing from Charleston, SC, but now calling Newark, NJ, home, has taken the music scene by storm with his latest project. The project is titled Wait For the Day, and features the hit single “Heaven For Two.” In a recent interview with Remixd Magazine, he opened up about his journey, inspirations, and aspirations.
Janockeil, a name derived from West African roots, translates to “Powerful One.” He lives up to this moniker, drawing inspiration from legendary artists like Mariah Carey, Prince, Michael Jackson, and Janet Jackson. His music combines the infectious melodies of ’90s R&B and Pop with a contemporary twist. This creates a captivating and soulful sound.
“I am mostly driven by melody when creating a song, and I love doing different styles of harmonies and background vocals around my melodies to give the song an enhanced and complete feel,” Janockeil explains. His passion for music runs deep, and he views it as a medium to express his innermost thoughts and emotions.

“Music is the one thing in my life that brings me the most immense joy,” he says. “It is how I fully express myself, all of my insecurities, my joys, my sadness, my wants, my needs, and my desires.”
Janockeil’s latest project, Wait For the Day, released on 9.8.23, takes listeners on a journey through the highs and lows of his life. The title track reflects on waiting for the wrong person to love you but also symbolizes the patience required for various aspects of life to fall into place.
“Thematically, even though the title track is about that blinding willingness to wait for the wrong person to love you, the title is really about being patient for that day when things will fall into place for you,” Janockeil explains.
With “Heaven For Two” as the lead single, the EP showcases Janockeil’s growth as an artist. “Since I started my music career in 2016, I have always strived to enhance and better myself and my sound as an artist with each project that I do,” he notes.
Janockeil’s message to his fans is one of passion and growth. He hopes that his music resonates with his audience, just as his musical influences have resonated with him. As he embarks on new musical endeavors and prepares to return to the stage after a three-year hiatus, Janockeil’s journey promises to be filled with power, passion, and purpose.
