Derrick D Walton link. VirtueReality is on the verge of becoming one of the best independent artists of our times! Born in a single-parent home he has always turned to sports and music to get him through the rough patches throughout his life. When sports played out he turned more into music as a therapeutic way of expressing his thoughts, ideology, and emotions. His music not only transpires to the times we are living in today but also the times that lay ahead. He is a versatile artist and his songs one by one reflect his geniality. So he presents to you his latest albums, "No Time Wasted", "The Dream", "Complicated", and "The Moment" including songs such as Token of Love" and "On My Way" in which he expresses his life's journey through various stages and aspects and his vision to keep the dream of creating and composing music alive. Although it's been an encouraging year our goals, dreams, and drive must not be abandoned or neglected. Let's make it happen!
Praises to the Most High!
