Barry Jhay

BarryJhay (born Oluwakayode Junior Balogun) is a Nigerian Afrobeats musician notable for his cultural style of music. He is from Ibadan, Nigeria but raised in Lagos and his father is the late Fuji artist, Sikiru Ayinde Barrister. Barry was born into a lineage of well-known Yoruba musicians as his grandfather I.K. Dairo is a well-known Juju traditional artist and father is credited for the invention of Fuji music. Barry Jhay entered the Entertainment scene in 2018 and was propelled into recognition with the success of his single tiled Aiye. The song captured a soulfully presented representation of some of the cyclical nature of life. He went on to win The Rookie of year award at The 2019 Headies Award. Barry's music has explored profound themes such as the Yoruba concept of Ori and has conveyed other messages such as surging listeners to be more compassionate and to be courageous in the face of oppression. His belief is that music is for one’s soul and he has portrayed his intention to make word paintings that have deeper meanings and is particularly his, as opposed to the result of his musical lineage. Though it can be concluded he inherited the passion for quality and proverbial lyrical style but the quality he brings into the music industry is second to none.
