Juma Mussa Mkambala

Biography

Juma Mussa Mkambala, professionally known as Juma Jux, is a Tanzanian R&B singer and entrepreneur often cited as one of East Africa's most stylish artists. Already a superstar in his home country, his profile exploded across West Africa in 2025 and 2026 due to his strategic musical collaborations and high-profile personal life. In January 2026, Jux solidified his continental dominance by winning Best Male Artiste in Eastern Africa at the 9th All Africa Music Awards (AFRIMA) held in Lagos. The win capped off a transformative year defined by his marriage to Nigerian influencer Priscilla Ajoke Ojo (daughter of actress Iyabo Ojo) in April 2025. The union, often dubbed a "Naija-TZ Royal Wedding," significantly boosted his popularity in Nigeria, leading to sold-out events like his "Detty December" concert in Lagos (December 2025). Musically, he is riding the wave of his 2025 album "A Day to Remember", which features a fusion of Bongo Flava and Afrobeats. He also continues to expand his business empire; in late 2025/early 2026, he officially inaugurated the African Boy Factory in Dar es Salaam, transitioning his luxury streetwear brand from outsourced production to local manufacturing to meet growing demand.
