From Ishiagu to Ikeja: The Making of a Musical Missionary
Born Don Roy Ajason on December 2, 1968, in Ishiagu, Ebonyi State, Jah Roy’s life has been a divinely orchestrated symphony. His current creative base in Ogba, Ikeja, Lagos, is the powerhouse from which his unique musical ministry flows.
This isn't a story of viral luck, but of dedicated craftsmanship. Think of it as a masterclass in musical persistence:
- 🎓 Formal Training: Honed his skills at the Three Face Music School.
- 🎤 Backing Vocalist for Legends: Paid dues singing for icons like Orits Williki and Chris Hanen.
- 🎸 The Afrobeat Crucible: His most formative chapter? Playing bass guitar for the legendary Femi Kuti and his Positive Force Band (1992-1996). This immersed him in the heart of Afrobeat, teaching musical discipline and the power of art as social commentary.
- ✝️ The Church Foundation: Parallel to this, he served as a choir master and bassist in churches, grounding his talent in deep, unshakeable faith.
“The world is fading fast, but Christ is the answer that we need at last.” – Jah Roy
This unique fusion—the stage polish of a seasoned bandstand veteran and the sincere conviction of a worshipper—is what makes Jah Roy's "Reggae Gospel" sound so authentic and powerful.
