JayEss said he and several friends were talking about eternal salvation one night, and all of them decided to give their lives over to Christ. “My whole life took on another dimension,” the popular entertainer remarked, “because I realized that the music which was presented didn’t glorify God. I joined the Christian Life City congregational right away that was connected with London College.

The collection of singers from all over London quickly earned fame. The presentation of their music varied from gospel to sacred anthems, from traditional secular to hip-hop, and the “The British Are Coming!” CD is amazingly unique, diversified and dynamic in every respect. “When my life changed I studied the word of God in order to accomplish a blending melody, rhythm and lyrics of the songs so they would express more than entertainment, they demonstrated our true belief in the Creator from the depth of our souls,” JayEss told the Defender.
