Biography

La música cuenta una historia

Jalex born in Bolama,Guinea-Bissau, arrived in Spain in the year 2000 after finishing his  undergraduate studies in Morocco. Coming from a family of musicians and performers, JaLEx´s passion for music runs through his veins, with his first musical influences coming directly from his older siblings, the great Guinean singers Djipson and Bidinte.  Once in Spain, JaLEX began to develop his musical career, creating and developing his unique style of music, while performing in trendy venues throughout Spain.


JaLex set out to conquer Spanish, Latin, and African audiences.  First in 2007 as part of the duo JaLex & Mc Levit, he debuted their first R&B style album, TWICE.  He then launched his solo career in 2010 with a new pop style album, MI MUNDO, which included renditions of classics like "I just called to say I love you" by Stevie Wonder and "End of the Road" by Boyz 2 Men, with the permission of the American artists themselves.


MI QUIMERA, JaLEX´s third album debuted in 2013 to great acclaim for the quality and the sensuality of the sound and for its creative spirit evidenced in the soulful blending of different musical styles. Edited by JJ.RECORDS and ZITRO MUSIC in Spain, MI QUIMERA stands out for its integration of Afro-Antillean rhythms infused with a touch of traditional Flamenco guitars. The produccion of this album was a collaboration between renown Spanish music producer FERMIN ORTIZ, JaLEX, and with the special collaboration of the great Kizomba music producer Mr.NINO. The album is composed of 16 songs with the  collaborations of great artists like Patche di Rima, Alana Sinkey, FCM, May Fernandez, Sara Johnston, and Ellys Leon. The album has an international vibe, with songs performed in Creole, Spanish, French, Portuguese, and English.


JaLEX released MI QUIMERA in Lisbon, Portugal, where it was reissued under the name NHA CRATCHEU by SONS D’AFRICA.  JaLEX promoted the album  in several venues, club and in radio/ tv stations, like “RTP Africa with Carlos Pedro y Nuno Sardinha.”

The promotion also included an appearance and  performance in The Miss Guinea Bissau Portugal 2013 at the Casino do Estoril.  JaLEX also went on tour presenting his album to other countries in Europe, Africa and South America. The tour included performances in Germany, England, France, Northern Ireland, Brazil and also in his country of origin Guinea Bissau.


Performing in popular venues and making appearances in television networks throughout Europe, JaLEX is not only a singer and songwriter, he has also become a reputed music producer of various styles such as R&B, Kizomba, Hip Hop, and innovative integrations of diverse styles. He has his own studio in Madrid, LEXRECORDS  where he works and resides.


In recent years, his hit singles SOLO QUIERO AMARTE (kizomba, 2015), and the most recent I JUST WANNA KNOW (kizomba, 2016), were the precursors to JaLex´s latest album in 2017.  Edited by ZITRO MUSIC and produced by Fermín Ortiz, A TU LADO is the last manifestation of JaLEX´s journey of originative integration of musical styles. An album with 12 tracks of pioneering styles that show JaLEX´s original interpretation of neo Pop, Latin, Kizomba fusion, and R&B. The album features collaborations with internationally renowned artists:

In the title single A TU LADO,  the Brazilian master Jayme Marques, who introduced the Bossa Nova to Spain and Europe in the 1960s and who collaborated  with Paco de Lucia, the great flamenco guitarist, leaves his mark on the song with sensuous Brazilian rhythms.


In the rendition of the song HELLO, Harold Rey of Cuba plays a solo acoustic melody on the piano, while the soulful voice of JaLEX alongside internationally recognized American R&B singer Horace Brown, grace the song. In the song I MISS YOU, the great guitarist Manecas Costa of Guinean background, laces the song with his electric rhythms while JaLEX expresses his perspective on life and on the mystical nature of love.


Presented in Madrid on October 4, 2017 in the Galileo Galilei Concert Hall, with a dynamic band performance A TU LADO has been received with great acclaim. Distributed worldwide online and in music stores throughout Spain and Portugal, his latest album is known for its cultural richness and for showcasing JaLEX´s personality and creativity. Winning the number one spot in Portugal´s RTP Africa radio, YO TE AMO, the fifth track on the album, remained at the number one spot for several weeks. Currently, Jalex completed his 6 month tour of Spain, Portugal, Germany, England, and Ireland. While his Africa tour planned for 2019 is in the work.,

JaLEX has crossed over the Atlantic and has begun to introduce his music to American audiences, starting in Washington DC where he won best performer by the audiences at the Taste of Africa Music Festival in July 2018.
