King El Joenai

ELIOENAI CICA AKA
KING El'JOENAI.

I started rapping in 2005 alongside my friend Michelle Mukebo in college.
Though time was tough at Home and in the city
we would rap on downloaded instrumentals as we had not yet mastered the production of instrumentals. Together we recorded a number of tracks with a few more friends, sharing emotions...some of our home situations and reality but as young driven artists we used to write songs to impress girls and it would work but at the time, we use to ride acapella, it was difficult to find beats and recording sessions,so we would rap if there got good mics,
I knew that the secret to a great performances is first a good sound, so I used to concentrate on the production of music and we helped each other ‘team work’ hoping to find chances of making it in the city.. we did not have the connection to better facilities but we had the drive
My first performances was at home, in high-school and in the neighborhood but seeing people’s reaction and appreciation for what we had to offer, that, drove me enough to continue on this musical path with much more passion.
I told myself that i can do this and so i had to do it, it was almost the dumbest decision but now i believe it the smartest, i grew into it and it my piece of art, my greatest achievements.. Creating music, expressing myself and my life in many forms.
Recording was hard as we did not have the equipment but during the school holidays we would record by friend’s houses and would then use the song to perform at local events that were hosted in the area where we reside[lived].
I graduated from high school and now able to be more productive musically.
I recorded a good number of songs and featured artists who are also on the come up.

I grew up watching and listening closely. my uncle could also sing and as ‘Gospel musician’ in Zambia,
His music has been an encouragement and influenced me into doing music with passion and following my dream
I did not at the time want to be in the music business but I did enjoy dancing and singing in church, school and for my family and i did enjoy that very much.

Then at a time I really wanted to study music, i wanted it so bad that i did not want to do anything else, i remember When i was 12 years old, I told my dad that I wanted to quit my secondary school and go learn how to play instruments, how to write and read, how to make melodies come together and perhaps inspire some of the other kids but sadly he said No! i had no choice but to follow since he was the one paying for it all anyway..


Doing what one is born to do is the only pressure.
I look towards a prosperous musical career and see room for unimaginable possibilities all around the world.
