Subsequently, Jay attended info Master for a training in Marketing Management and UNAPEC in Santo Domingo for a study in communication. Jay’s musical journey began at church at the age of 7, because coming from a Christian family and music lover, he saw himself integrating a choir as a soloist.
After this experience in church, jay was now animated by the desire to launch himself as an artist in the field of Hip-hop and more precisely “RNB”. From there, he began with his first single titled: “Special love” in 2003.

After multiple offers from musical groups who were fascinated by Jay’s pure talent, he ended up integrating that of A5 and then Dream Team. Groups with which he was going to know a fairly interesting journey until the moment he had to leave Haiti to discover other horizons and expose his talent to other audiences.
Indeed, after the 2010 earthquake, Jay went to the Dominican Republic to prepare his first album and a mixtape at the request of his fans. It was at that time that he was going to meet the heads of the G7 Family group. With these, a new adventure began for Jay where he was going to offer to the general public and especially to mothers, a title: “louse or manman” who until today has made his journey with consumers of music in general.
