Victoria Orenze is a Gospel Artiste who recently released an music album. In this interview with lagoscityreporters.com reporter, ETE KEKEMA, she shares the motivation behind her foray into gospel music and other issues…

Inspiration Behind the Album, Why the album tittle Jesus Christ Vol. 1?

Because that’s the message.

What inspired you to create Jesus Christ Vol. 1, and how does it reflect your personal spiritual journey?”

I was directed or inspired like you said to record this album called JESUS CHRIST according to Hebrews 13:8 and John 14:6 The purpose is to introduce Jesus to the unbelievers and re-introduce Jesus to the believers.

Not the traditional Jesus, tribal Jesus, nor political Jesus. Neither the cultural Jesus, nor the Jesus we have made Him but the Jesus in the Bible, the one who is love, who loves the sinner but hates the sin. The one who is the same yesterday today and forever. The One who will not drop His standard for anyone. The one who needs no upgrade by men but upgrades men. The One who is potently powerful yet simple. The One who is The way, The truth and The Life by which all men can be saved. The One who came in the form of man to show us our true identity and the acceptable standard. The One who wants us to be His splitting image and His representative here on earth. The One who expects greater works from us. The One who says we should not be conformed to this world, the one who says we live in this world but not of this world. The One whom the world needs so badly for a transformation and restoration. The One who is Life and the Light of men. The One who weighs our motive, The One who is the Judge of all. The One who died and rose again, and the One who is coming back soon and has His rewards with Him.

That’s the Jesus the world needs to see, know and experience at this time. You and I are to show forth the Life of this True Christ the Messiah!

This is my purpose in life to know Him, live like Him and to represent Him well to my world.

Can you walk us through your creative process for this album?

Waiting on the Lord in prayer and the word. Listening out for what He will say, internalising and capturing it.

I play the keyboard a little, so when I hear His conversation with me which you will call lyrics, and with the help of the Holy Spirit I go to the keyboard to make clear the words and tunes I am hearing. Then I go into production.

You are known as a prophetic worshipper, should we still expect that from this album?

Well.. I am known as a worshipper of Jesus Christ which means I express Him however He wants to be expressed per time and I believe that is what you will get in this album.

Were there any collaborations on this album? If so, who are they and how did the collaboration influence the final sound?

Yes there are! God The Father, God The Son and God The Holy Spirit… smile! Their influence is out of this world.

How does Jesus Christ Vol. 1 deepen the message of your previous works, such as Truth in Sounds and Victory Has a Sound?

Jesus Christ vol 1 album further intensifies The Message, the Gospel of Jesus Christ which has been my message and will continually be my message. This you will find in all my albums.

What central message or theme do you hope listeners will take away from this album?

The central message is Jesus Christ! Listeners will leave with the knowledge of who Jesus is, what He stands for, His love and what He has for all who believe in Him!

Usually in every album there is a song or track, which track on the album holds the most personal significance for you, and why?

Every song or track on the album holds personal significance to me because it’s Jesus we are talking about! But I will say “I’M NOT MAD” is my unapologetic resolve and response to those who like to mock believers like me. Smile

What do you hope listeners will experience when they listen to this album, both spiritually and emotionally?

The spiritual controls the physical so I am expecting a spiritual experience that will bring a physical awakening of the truth of who Jesus Christ is and the best life He offers.

How do you envision this album impacting your audience, especially in their personal worship experiences?

It will bring an awareness to those who don’t know Jesus Christ, it will also re-introduce Him to those who have a wrong understanding of Him and it will draw those who know Him closer to their Lover.

Looking ahead, are there any upcoming projects or collaborations you’re excited about?

Two more albums are on the way before December 2025. They are called THE PRAYER MEDLEY and SOUNDS OF DELIVERANCE

What message would you like to convey to people who have supported you throughout your journey?

I am glad that you have followed me as I followed Christ all these years! I am grateful for your continuous support, prayers and resolve! Let’s continue on the journey of following Jesus and becoming better people to our world!

Through which platforms will the album be available, and are there any exclusive content offerings?

Onerpm is distributing the album to all the stores.

We have seen many artists/ministers fall of the race what has kept you and how do you do it?

The love of Jesus Christ and The help of the Holy Spirit.

What has kept you so relevant in your musical Journey?

The Message – I am a Messenger with a Master. If you stay true to the message you will remain relevant and in this case my message is Jesus Christ and He is forever relevant!

As a gospel minister are there people that you are mentoring and transferring your musical skills to?

Yes there are a lot of people I am discipling in many ways and I used the word discipling because in our kingdom we disciple all to become like just One and that One is Jesus Christ.

What do you do when you are not making music?

I love to stay quiet and alone. I love to go to the beach, love to laugh watching comedies, love to help people and put smiles on their faces. I love destinations but I wish I just appear there without travelling.
