Born, and raised in his home State of IMO, TJay KARTEL, Formerly Known As “TJ Eleweukwu” has been giving us great music and vibes since his early venture into the Nigerian Music Industry. His Love for music can be traced to his younger days, watching his Mum as the Music Director of their Church.
This Love and passion would follow through to his University days, briefly at University of Calabar, and then I. M. T. Enugu.
After Youth Corper, he released his debut single ELEWE UKWU, which shot him straight into limelight. It garnered him a lot of recognition, relevance, respect, and many collaborations with other Artistes.
TJay KARTEL put his musical career on hold, to pursue his other interest, Construction. He did very well in that field too, all the while , still writing and voicing for other Artistes. He writes music with such ease, and his voice is definitely a powerful instrument.
A chance collaboration, and meeting with the Boss of Ssyma Records saw TJay coming back fully to music, his first and greatest Love.
His favorite way to relax when not working, is usually with friends, catching a good movie, or going for really long walks. He has also made his Love for children obvious, and cannot wait to have a house full of them.
He is Single, and Searching, and is currently signed to SSyma Records
