Emerging from Edo State, alongside his contemporaries Rema and Santi, Jujuboy began his musical journey in the vibrant realm of his church choir at a tender age of eight. The roots of his church upbringing permeate his sound today, a result of learning music production through a neighbour. By age sixteen he was producing his own beats out of his Grandma’s house, armed with Fruity Loops and a trusty USB mic. Since then he’s had the opportunity to open for Simi on tour, produce on Seyi Shay’s album “Big Girl” and work with the likes Jidenna, Adekunle Gold, Gospelonthebeat and many more. "Spaceman"m which received support in France from RFI, Tsugi, TARMAC, KIF Radio and more, and “James Bond” are the first two singles from his highly anticipated upcoming EP, scheduled for release later this year. The tracks build on the success of his previous releases "I Dey There", "Enjoyment" and "Gimmie Love".
