We’re excited to introduce you to the always interesting and insightful Jet Just Landed. We hope you’ll enjoy our conversation with Jet Just Landed below.
Jet Just Landed, appreciate you joining us today. Learning the craft is often a unique journey from every creative – we’d love to hear about your journey and if knowing what you know now, you would have done anything differently to speed up the learning process.
I’ve always been a super fan of music in general, with Hip-Hop and R&B being the pedestal of my inspiration. I wrote my first rap at like 13, and obviously it was bad… But my ambition and strive to be a superstar was so high at that age that I practically brainwashed myself in believing that it was the greatest verse I ever heard. I didn’t start with wanting to rap. I first made beats on my phone on this app I use to have, and I downloaded samples from Chaka Khan, Al Green, and more and just chopped it up on my phone the best way I could. Looking back, it was bad, but I thought I was a genius. Once I bought FL Studio and got a MacBook for Christmas, I taught myself how to make beats and just starting selling them to my friends that were rappers. After I heard the songs they made with them, I just thought to myself, “I can be so much better than them at rapping, singing, and just about anything else.” Not in an arrogant way, but the music was trash. At the same time, I felt an urge to show myself I can do anything.
As always, we appreciate you sharing your insights and we’ve got a few more questions for you, but before we get to all of that can you take a minute to introduce yourself and give our readers some of your back background and context?
My name is Jeffrey Daniels, but I’m known in the music world as Jet Just Landed. I’m an artist, producer, entrepreneur, and creative visionary who merges my passion for music, fashion, and business into everything I do. I started making music as a way to express my emotions and create timeless art, and I’ve since expanded into fashion and creative direction, driven by a desire to inspire and connect with people.
I’m also the founder of CLIPPY MAGAZINE, a new digital platform I founded dedicated to giving independent musicians and creatives the exposure, tools, and resources they need to thrive. Through interviews, features, and opportunities, we’re looking forward to helping artists break barriers and connect with their audience.
What sets me apart is my peaceful yet competitive approach. I push myself to create meaningful work—whether it’s through my music, fashion designs, or creative projects—while empowering others along the way. I take pride in my ability to turn raw emotions into art and use that art to inspire confidence and ambition in others. My work isn’t just about me; it’s about building a legacy that uplifts creatives and shows the world what’s possible when passion and purpose collide.
What do you find most rewarding about being a creative?
For me, the most rewarding aspect of being an artist is the connection my work creates. Whether it’s a song, a fashion piece, or a project I’ve directed, knowing that something I’ve created resonates with someone—makes them feel seen, understood, or inspired—that’s everything to me. It’s about taking emotions, experiences, and ideas that might seem personal and turning them into something universal.
Beyond that, I love the process of creation itself. There’s a certain peace I find in crafting something from nothing, pouring my energy into every detail, and then stepping back to see the vision come to life. And when people not only enjoy what I do but also feel motivated to pursue their own creativity because of it? That’s when I know I’m doing something bigger than myself. That’s when I know I’m pursuing the calling God placed me here on Earth for. It’s about leaving a lasting impact and reminding others that art and creativity can change the world.
What can society do to ensure an environment that’s helpful to artists and creatives?
Society can best support artists and creatives by providing more accessible platforms, resources, and funding that encourage innovation and growth. A thriving creative ecosystem begins with valuing art and creativity as essential to culture, not just as entertainment. This means investing in grants, residencies, and educational programs that nurture talent from all backgrounds, especially those who might not have the means to access traditional opportunities.
Additionally, creating more collaborative spaces—both physical and digital—where creatives can connect, share ideas, and showcase their work is crucial. Communities thrive when there’s a network of support that removes gatekeeping and prioritizes accessibility.
Equally important is fostering a culture that respects the value of art and pays creatives fairly for their contributions. Too often, artists are undervalued or expected to work for exposure instead of compensation. Changing that mindset, along with introducing fairer contracts and opportunities for independent creators, would make a huge difference.
Finally, platforms like my company, CLIPPY MAGAZINE, seek to play a part in this by spotlighting emerging talent and giving them the visibility they deserve. Society thrives when creatives are empowered, because art inspires, challenges, and drives progress.
