Jaël Tanalepy

The official YouTube channel of Jaël Tanalepy, also known as Ka'ela. An emerging Pacific Island artist and content creator with Melanesian heritage with roots from the Maluku Islands. His paternal grandfather carries the Tanalepy name from Tuhaha on the island of Saparua, while his grandmother hails from the Ferdinandus family in Haruku Village on Haruku Island. Since his debut, Jaël has released a steady stream of standout tracks like “My Attention” and “Feels,” connecting with tens of thousands of listeners worldwide by blending Pacific Island culture with modern genre-bending R&B, Reggae, Hip-hop, and Pop. A major milestone in his career came in 2023 with the hit track “Feels” (featuring Taumate). The song trended heavily, received airplay across Samoan national television, and solidified his name within the Pacific music scene. Making history shortly after, Jaël became the first Malukuan artist ever to perform live in Samoa. Beyond the studio, Jaël shares his journey through vlogs on his YouTube channel, driven by a lifelong dream to travel to every single Pacific island. Whether he is creating music, sharing travel vlogs, or serving as an official ambassador for the Pacific lifestyle brand MATAI, one truth remains constant: wherever he goes, he always proudly represents Pasifika.
