All Genres > World > World Fusion > JAKE D: Banjay

Jake D was born in Karnplay, Nimba County, Liberia. He presently resides in Minneapolis, Minnesota, USA. He is a song writer, singer, producer, and recording engineer who began his music career in early 1989 and has since then released and produced a few, but highly acclaimed CDs.

Jake D's style of music is called Korlor. By way of description, Korlor is an infectious and happy music that originated in Northeastern Liberia. The music incorporates relentless and catchy rhythms with an upbeat mood, symbolic of the Dan and Man tribes of that region.

Jake D also wrote for and performed with the Amandla and Out of Africa bands of Minneapolis, respectively, from the early to mid 1990's.

Jake D presently records for the independent label, Kinzo Music Works.
