Artist and lyricist, Juliera, brings self-empowerment and hope to the dancefloor with her latest
single, “Hero.” With a rhythmic beat and thoughtful lyrics, the pop song speaks to all listeners.
“It’s a very fun song,” shares Juliera. “It’s a dance song that talks about being the ‘Hero’ who
goes the extra miles for people and does whatever it takes to make them happy… It’s about
giving all your love.”
Facing divorce, Juliera turned a difficult moment in her life into a chance to make herself happy.
“I wrote the song in 2017 when I was actively ghostwriting for other people. The inspiration for
this song hit me when someone hired me to write a song to a beat they provided. Several years
later, the song was still stuck in my head and I couldn’t forget the melodies nor lyrics. So, I
decided to record it myself.”
Motivated by the positive feedback Juliera received on the studio recording, she decided to
take the song to the public. “My 3-year-old son heard the song and absolutely loved it. He
danced to it and made me replay it multiple times. I then decided that I would make my music
video for this song based on a concept that is fun for kids and adults.” With the original beat
tied to the first version of the song, Juliera enlisted a producer to create a new sound to
accompany her original lyrics.
Blending her Nigerian culture with American influences, Juliera showcases a diversity of sound
through her music. She began writing around age 16. “I used to write lyrics on paper and one
day my aunt went through my things and asked me if I wrote it, saying ‘it’s really good.’ I didn’t
believe her, thinking it was just something an aunt would say. Then I got into college and
wanted to see what to do on the side for income. I went on Fiverr and put up a gig to write
songs and lyrics for people.”
As fate would have it, “let me see if I can do this” became a successful hustle writing music for
new and repeat clients. It was only a matter of time before Juliera earned over 250 five-star
reviews writing more than 1000 songs, many of which were for return customers. “It made me
realize I knew what I was doing and how to do it,” shares the artist.
“Hero” is one of two songs available by the artist. Two videos are also available for the single, a
lyric video and official music video. Her other single, “Let It Ache,” is about coping through
heartbreak even when the heart aches. “I didn’t want to leave but what I was going through… I
would rather walk away and take the heartbreak,” tells Juliera of the thought process that
inspired the song.
The artist also has eight songs written and four music videos ready for release. She plans to
share new media regularly over the next few months.
At the end of the day, Juliera hopes to inspire listeners to follow their dreams. “I think it’s
important for people to follow their dreams and not settle for less. My husband didn’t want me
to do music. So, I shut my dream away. I pulled my dreams away for this person who ended up
being abusive and cruel to me… What a joke! Now, I’m happy doing what I love doing and I am
doing better for myself now than I ever did in my marriage. It was almost as if my marriage was
a dark cloud hovering above me and blocking my blessings. I want people to know their worth
and choose better for themselves.”
