Elijah Rocq was born in Brooklyn, New York, as the 6th of 9 children. Due to his mother’s love for music and to keep her clan in the field of music, she gave them instruments and turned her family to a band. Elijah would listen to his mother sing, while they played and decided at an early age that he was going to take singing as his profession. He grew up listening to the likes of Stevie Wonder, Donny Hathaway,the Chilites, Bob Marley, Peter Tosh, Steel Pulse, just to name a few. At the age of 10, his family moved to Jamaica, where he continued his upbringing in a small district in the hills of St. Ann. At times he would run bare footed, catching fish and fetching water. He also loves the natural habitat of the land, where there was always melodious sounds from the water, the wind and the chirping birds. In these natural sounds, which brought sweet melodies to his ears, Elijah composes his music psychologically. He wrote and sang lead on a very soulful and inspirational song that shows the mastery of his artistry entitled “Masterpiece.”Now as a solo artist, armed with a unique yet interesting vocal style and such an impeccable and rich range, Elijah is poised for greatness. He is now working under his own label, TriumphantRootz, with his unique and universal sound of freedom, love, honor and respect. He will be taking the world by storm with his present singles, “All Season Love" and “Guess You Didn’t Know” … listen to it here on spotify
