Band Story

Jameel Jahmay is a rising new artist on the scene. Self-taught early on, he later studied voice, music theory, piano, and guitar at Winston-Salem State University (WSSU) and the University of the District of Columbia. As a student at WSSU, he was a vocalist with the chorus. Being part of the chorus and receiving classical training solidified his commitment to pursue his lifelong dream of writing, singing, and producing music.

Jameel also has a strong interest in film scoring, which further challenges him behind the scenes. His favorite male vocalists include Stevie Wonder, Kevon Edmonds, and Howard Hewett. He also enjoys the vocals of female artists such as Shanice, Deborah Cox, and Patti LaBelle. His favorite keyboard players are George Duke, Herbie Hancock, and Brian Culbertson, while his favorite guitarists are George Benson, Paul Jackson Jr., and Peter White. These artists have styles that he deeply respects and admires.

According to Jameel Jahmay, having a diverse musical background is key. His favorite quote is: “Music is like breathing—I need it to survive.”

Jameel was born in Statesville, North Carolina, and currently resides in Fredericksburg, Virginia. Ready2 Serve U is the title of his newly released CD. This self-produced album is a soulful mix of smooth ballads and funky, upbeat R&B, hip-hop, and pop stylings that create the perfect transition between genres for listeners who enjoy a wide range of music.

Jameel continues to write and produce music for both emerging and well-known artists, with no limitations ahead. It has been several years since he began this journey, and he now feels confident that the formal training he received—along with performances at the Apollo Theater and collaborations with artists like EU and Chuck Brown—has prepared him for the many challenges he will face in the music industry for years to come.
