Musa Juma Biography

Musa Juma is one of the most popular and richest Musician who was born on December 6, 1968 in Siaya, Kenya.

He was born in Usonga, Siaya District (now Siaya County). Juma (or MJ as he was popularly referred to) ventured into music immediately after completing high school. It was a difficult decision because music was not paying in the 1980s in Kenya and it was not considered as a career. However, Musa’s determination could not be stopped by the societal view of music and he pursued his talents and interests. After a long struggle, MJ and his brother Omondi Tony (Anthony Omondi Mumbo) launched their band, Orchestra Limpopo International. Together they started playing rumba in small clubs in Nairobi and Kisumu. Their performances and compositions saw Orchestra Limpopo International gradually rise into national fame. Years later, the two brothers would separate and Omondi Tony turned to a solo career. Juma thrilled his fans with rhumba style music laced with Congolese styles.

He died of pneumonia on March 15, 2011 at Mombasa Hospital. He was survived by his wife, Winnie and a young daughter, Vicky.
