Il sogno di fare una carriera nell'industria musicale non era qualcosa che Jerome (23) aveva dato per scontato. In effetti,non era facile realizzarlo,vista la zona dove è cresciuto.
Nato e cresciuto a Sheffield,in Inghilterra,in uno dei distretti più duri della città,che non permetteva a Jerome di sognare di iniziare una carriera nell'industria musicale o dello spettacolo.
"Sono cresciuto in una grezza parte di Sheffield. Molti dei miei amici con cui sono cresciuto sono finiti su una cattiva strada.Alcuni sono andati in carcere o hanno fatto uso di droga. Volevo evitare questo a tutti i costi. Volevo di più!",spiega il ventiduenne e le sue parole fanno intendere che lui sia orgoglioso di esserci riuscito.
Grande appassionato di moda,Jerome immediatamente impressionato dagli altri membri dei Lexington Bridge,con il suo stile ha contribuito a creare il look della band.
Lui mise tutto se stesso nella band perché sapeva che doveva lavorare sodo per avere qualche possibilità.
Di nascosto e senza rivelarlo ai suoi amici e parenti,Jerome andò in Regno unito per partecipare alle audizioni per la band. "Non ho mai avuto lezioni di canto o ballo-ma quando canto o ballo,escono fuori tutti i miei sentimenti,e così sapevo che dovevo approfittare di questa opportunità."
Quando ormai fu chiaro che Jerome era entrato nella band,la sua famiglia non riusciva a crederci.
Nel corso degli anni, Jerome aveva conservato la sua passione per la musica a se stesso.
Tuttavia,appena prima della audizione finale, è intervenuto un imprevedibile e brutale destino. Avendo visto una giovane donna aggredita da gang giovanili, Jerome intervenne immediatemene. Una giovane donna della gang attaccò ferocemente Jerome con una bottiglia rotta e tagliò il suo collo.
La cicatrice rimase e non ebbe alcuna intenzione di cercare di nasconderla.
"Io so chi sono. E so da dove provengo. Ma ora sono qui e farò di tutto per mantenere unita la nostra band.Noi siamo cinque ragazzi con molto in comune. Noi siamo compagni e abbiamo imparato a fare affidamento su ognuno di noi. E ci divertiremo un sacco insieme.
The dream of making a career in the music industry was by no means something that Jerome (21) could take for granted. In fact, having dreams of any kind was by no means normal in the area where he grew up. Born and raised in Sheffield, England and in one of the toughest city districts at that, Jerome never even had a chance to dream about a career in the music industry or in show business. “I grew up in a rough part of Sheffield. Many of my friends that I grew up with ended up on the wrong track. Some landed in jailed or lost themselves in drugs. I wanted to avoid this at all costs. I wanted more!”, explains the 21-year-old and his words reflect a certain amount of pride in having ‘made it’ on his own terms. A passionate fashion aficionado, Jerome immediately impressed the other members of LEXINGTON BRIDGE with his style and he helped to create the band’s look for live shows. He puts everything into the band because he knows that you have to work hard for the chances you get. Secretly and without telling his friends and family, Jerome came across a UK audition announcement for the band in the Internet and made his way down to London. “I never had dancing or singing lessons – When I sing, dance and perform it’s all from a gut feeling and that’s how I knew that I had to take advantage of this chance.” When it became clear that Jerome was going to be in the band, his family could hardly believe it. Through the years, Jerome had kept his passion for music to himself. However, just ahead of the final audition, fate intervened unpredictably and in full brutality. After witnessing a young woman being harassed and assaulted by youth gang, Jerome interceded dauntlessly. The gang went after Jerome and a young woman attacked Jerome ferociously with a broken bottle and cut his neck. A scar remains and he has no intention of trying to hide it. “I am who I am. And where I come from is where I come from. But I’m here now and I will do everything to keep our team tight. We are five lads with a lot in common. We are mates and we have learned to rely on each other. And we have a lot of fun together.”
