JNE

I began singing from as early as I can remember — around 8 years old — and wrote my first song at 14. I was in my high school choir and used to go for talent shows as a kid.

I started posting covers online when I was in university, trying to build my presence in music while earning my Nursing degree. I did not start releasing music until I was fully done with school — all the exams, internships, everything that came with becoming a Registered Nurse. I did not debut until all that was finished in 2025.

I always had a feeling music would eventually be that path for me. I just never saw it clearly until the day I wrote my first real song. My background in nursing taught me to work effectively under pressure, pay close attention to detail, and connect with people — and that is something evident in the way I make my music.

My influences are Afrobeats, Soul, and R&B — that was all I listened to growing up. I love the way they made me feel, so I like making personalized songs with authentic storytelling. The type of songs to make you feel things.
