Víctor Víctor (born Víctor José Víctor Rojas; 11 December 1948 – 16 July 2020) was a Dominican guitarist, singer and composer. He was born in Santiago de los Caballeros, Dominican Republic. He was the founder of the Nueva Forma musical group in the 1970s.

He was also one of the first Dominican artists to travel to Cuba, when this type of travel was not allowed by the Dominican government.

In 2007 he recorded an album with social-themed songs titled Verde y Negro as a tribute to the freedom fighters of the Dominican people.

Víctor died of COVID-19 on 16 July 2020 at a hospital in Santo Domingo, aged 71.[1]
