Jovi graduated from the University of Yaoundé II (Soa), with a BA Hons in Economics and Business Management.
Jovi's debut album H.I.V (Humanity is Vanishing) was described by Kangsen Feka Wakai in Bakwa magazine as “the long awaited arrival of a self-assured emcee very conscious of his abilities, the vacuum in the genre, his audience’s expectations, and the right dose of hustle to assert his place.”
Cameroon's music industry has remained conventional for a very long time with genres like, Makossa and Bikutsi dominating the musical scene.
Jovi's first single "Don 4 Kwat", followed by "Pitié", featuring Congolese musician Tabu Ley Rochereau, released under Mumak record label, which he co-founded, is part of a new wave of musical content in Cameroon.
