JT (Jemima Abel Damina), JP (Jesimel Precious Abel Damina) and JJ (Jewel Precious Abel Damina), are the new kids on the block ready to take the music industry and the entire Nigerian community by storm.
Bouqui, a gospel and inspirational hip-hop star, who discovered the trio, stated that “the girls are so talented, there is nothing as fulfilling as finding and nurturing new talents and watching them rise to fame.â€
Bouqui’s new girls are known as Triple J Plus.
The oldest of the sisters is JT, who was born in 1994. She is an intending fresh man at Oral Roberts University, USA and likes dancing, cooking and travelling. JP, on the other hand, is 15 years old. Her hobbies include singing, basketball and creative arts. The youngest, JJ, is eight years old and she likes drawing, making friends and dancing, while the colour she likes most is red.
Bouqui said she took to the sisters after she was floored by their raw talent, energy, passion and dedication.
Her involvement in this project will be no surprise to her long-time fans, who have known the rapper for dipping her feet in new territories and immersing herself in new challenges.
As a young child, she discovered her passion for music and in her teens, formed the all-female group, G-Vibes. She also branched into broadcasting by presenting on Eko FM.
Two years after the release of her first album, Bouqui released the second, Redefinition, which further cemented her as one of the most famous female acts in the country. Her first single, Mo Ri Le, was an instant hit, followed up by another successful single, Take You Away. An energetic live performer, the rapper went on the road and toured extensively in the UK, US and Nigeria in 2009 and the better half of 2010.
Now, she’s taking time off her crazy schedule to present Nigerians a worthy gift: three amazing gifted sisters for the prize of one.
Born and raised in Uyo, Nigeria, Triple J Plus have known music for a long time and are usually of the notion that music for them is inbuilt. “We have known music for as long as we can recall, but it officially took its shape and call last year,†JT said.
JP adds: “We were a part of a music competition organised by AKBC in Uyo three years ago, where we came fourth. We are sure our music will cut across the younger generation as we pass across, messages that they can relate to.â€
Bouqui’s main focus is on developing and nurturing Triple J Plus into a full-fledged act that can stand the test of time.
