Not only is he a solo artist, but D’Vo is also the lead singer and emcee of Global Rhythm, a soul-fusion funk band from around the world.

What is your favorite part about being an artist? Is it songwriting, performing, recording, something else?) Tell us why. My favorite part about being an artist is actually creating the song, the songwriting and concepts. This part of the process is the most fun and exciting to me because I get to share my creativity with the listeners. It's apart of the song that no one else can alter but me.
Can you tell us what being in the recording studio is like for you? When I'm not doing music, I enjoy spending time with my family, watching and playing sports, and I'm a diner.
Okay, this a fun question. When you are not doing music, what else do you enjoy doing? Today in the music scene, I admire H.E.R. I admire her (no pun intended) because of her originality in her music.
Who do you admire most in the music scene today and why? Today in the music scene, I admire H.E.R. I admire her (no pun intended) because of her originality in her music.
Can you tell us what song you've written that is the most emotional and describe the meaning behind it? Enmity is the most emotional song for me because it allowed me to be free and be myself, and that was the one thing I thought wouldn't be received well. It's actually the most requested song.
Are you working on any new material right now or what's in the works for the upcoming year? Yes, I am working on my third album to join The Codex Hip-Hop Series. This one is Volume III and it's called, The Codex: Court Vision; it will be released late summer. I am also working on growing my animations and building a community of creators.
