Ejilen Faya
Known by his stage name Ejilen Faya, the real identity behind the beats is none other than Ejilen Chellapen. This young maestro is making seismic waves in the new generation’s musical landscape with a barrage of hits. Hailing from the vibrant streets of Rose Hill, Ejilen kickstarted his career early, serenading audiences at weddings. Today, he leaves an indelible mark with his musical prowess.
The genesis of his ascendancy dates back to 2018 when the Mauritian public first encountered his brilliance through the debut single ‘Bam Bam,’ a collaboration with Bigg Frankii and STNB. This sonic gem has since garnered over five million views on YouTube.
Ejilen, once confined to the intimate settings of pubs, weddings, and birthday parties, has now ascended to the echelons of the most sought-after DJs for the grandest events in Mauritius. His portfolio boasts performances at illustrious gatherings such as Festival Reggae Donn Sa, AllWaves Fest, One Love, and many more.
Weaving inspiration from fellow artists and the tapestry of his everyday life, Ejilen defines his musical signature as a fusion of dancehall, afro, and afrobeat. Behind the turntables, he orchestrates chart-topping hits like “Ti Mamzel” and “Gagne Twa Bonne.”
Not just a DJ extraordinaire, Ejilen has donned the hat of a full-time Music Producer at a prominent local radio station. His call to the public is a resonant plea to sustain their support for local music—a rallying force that propels artists to reach greater heights.
