Wayne Buchanan… JAI {Jah.ye} - Jesus and I
Born February 19, to Allorie Heath , Jai is a Vessel being used by God, who’s purpose is to invoke in people the desire to fulfill Gods plan in their life through his gift of music…written and vocal.
He began singing at the age of eight (8) years, doing child like dub-plates on various sound systems in his home community of August town, but it wasn’t until he was fourteen (14) years that that his professional Christian calling for singing and ministry was realized.
The highlight of Jai’s Ministry as a singer and song writer began in 1997 when he became lead singer for the group “Total Praise” where they entered the JCDC gospel festival and placed among the Top ten, being recorded on the gospel festival album in 2001. He later joined subsequent groups such as, “C-Sharp” and the dynamic “Perpetual Praise”.
Jai’s popularity grew when he came along side Johnny Clarke and signed to his label Marjohn Muzik, where the hit single ‘Can’t take my Lord’ was birthed, and as vocalized by Jai, you truly can take anything… but his Trust, Faith and Love for the lord…. you can’t take that away!!
In 2003, Jai through his connection with Johnny Clarke became a part of Katalys Crew , where he operated as lead singer and song writer for their second and third album; ‘Open Your Eyes’ and ‘Christmas ina Jamdown’ with hit songs Open up Your eyes, Only God’s Mercy, David Dance and Prayer for Change ( Rap-pa-Pam pam).
He has also been on other albums collaborating with, DJ Nicholas - On the Shout and Ryan Mark – Chosen Prodigy.
Jai has traveled the Caribbean with Katalys and as a solo minister proclaiming the gospel through song to St. Martin, Cayman Islands, and Antigua.
In February 2006, his contract with Katayls ended and he began his solo career operating under his own label ‘Image Records’.
Presently he is working on his debut album called ‘Best friend’ which will include his single, - All I need, Love and Shout Jah.
