Soul-Rooted. Genre-Fluid. Fearlessly Original.

Jafar Curry is a singer, songwriter, producer, and multi-instrumentalist whose music transcends genres and borders. Known for his electrifying live shows and chameleon-like creativity, Curry has carved out a legacy as one of the most versatile independent artists of his generation. Blending soul, jazz, blues, funk, alternative hip-hop, and pop with a signature rawness, his work refuses to stay in one lane—just like the artist himself.

Hailing from Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, Curry honed his craft in the vibrant music scenes of Tampa and Atlanta before making his mark internationally, especially in Southeast Asia, where he became a pivotal figure in Thailand’s soul and fusion music culture. His soulful vocals and dynamic stage presence have lit up venues across Europe, Asia, and Africa—earning him a global fanbase and critical acclaim along the way.

Curry’s 2021 album The Tuxedo Bartender delivered a lush blend of funk and soul, powered by standout tracks like “On The Low,” his most streamed single to date. His earlier releases—such as the beloved neo-soul track “8een” (2014), Thoughts From My Room (2006), and the foundational Jafar EP (2004)—have become cult classics for fans of indie soul and R&B fusion.

With features in CLOUT, FLEX, DCWS, and The Weekly Planet, Jafar’s genre-fluid catalog continues to attract attention from both press and curators alike. Whether fronting his 13-piece band, delivering stripped-down solo piano shows, or experimenting with trap-soul textures in his latest work, Curry’s music always comes with authenticity, groove, and emotional fire.

Now, with his bold new single “Love Automatic,” Jafar steps into yet another chapter—melding alternative hip-hop, trap, and alt-R&B into a sound that’s atmospheric, futuristic, and unmistakably him.
