Jeremiah Rapha Mwanamputu (born May 7, 1995), known by his stage name Rajey, is a Congolese singer, songwriter, rapper, dancer, philanthropist, activist and upcoming artificial intelligence engineer. Considered by many to be the pioneer of the hip hop gospel scene in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Rajey launched a movement that although niched due to its Christocentric message took the youth of a Kinshasa (a city known for its rich music history) by storm, thanks to his 2013’s debut mixtape " Think Like a Prophet "[1]. Because of his grueling academic schedule, it is only in 2020 that Rajey released his debut EP " Invincible " driven by its flagship anthems "Esperance"[2] and what is considered by many to be his magnum opus "Tendre Ami"[3], earning him endorsements from Trace TV[4] [5][6][7] later that year and Ziiki Media in 2021. During his partnership with Ziiki Media, Rajey released his last single to date "Smile Again"[8]. In October 2023, Rajey announced in a series of edgy and controversial posts on Instagram that he was renouncing Christianity and its teachings, a decision he said he had been considering since childhood.
