Jero ジェロ, born Jerome Charles White, Jr. in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, 1981, is the first black enka singer in Japanese music history. He first began pursuing his dream to become an Enka artist because of the influence of his Japanese grandmother. His grandmother, originally from Yokohama, first introduced Jero to Enka and it was under her guidance that he grew to love the genre as a child.

Jero, who majored in information technology at the University of Pittsburgh, did not initially imagine himself in a career as an Enka singer. Rather, after he permanently moved to Japan, his main forms of employment were as an English teacher and as a computer engineer. He only began to actively work towards become an Enka singer because he had promised his grandmother that one day he would someday perform at the annual Kohaku Uta Gassen song show. As a result, he actively participated in numerous singing contests while he continued to work as a computer engineer and eventually achieved real success after only two months since he had arrived in Japan. Sadly, his grandmother never was able to see her grandson achieve Enka fame, as she passed away three years before he became famous. Jero was selected to appear on the 59th NHK Kōhaku Uta Gassen, NHK New Year's Eve musical spectacular, on 2008. In his participation, he fulfills a pledge he made to his dying grandmother to appear on the yearly competition. Jero appeared wearing a black and white shirt bearing the image of his grandmother.

His first single,

( 海雪, literally, ), was released in Japan on February 20, 2008. It entered the Oricon charts at number 4. Umi Yuki, references the Sea of Japan, but Jero has admitted that the only ocean he has ever really seen was in California.

Jeroジェロ,原名Jerome Charles White, Jr,1981年出生於美國賓夕法尼亞州匹茲堡市,是日本音樂歷史上第一位黑人演歌歌手。受日本祖母的影響,他開始追求自己的夢想:成為一名演歌藝術家。他的祖母來自橫濱,第一個向Jero介紹了演歌,在她的指導下,他还在孩提时就開始愛上這種風格。

Jero 在美國匹茲堡大學主修信息技術,之前從未想象過自己的職業生涯是做一個演歌歌手。相反,永久移民到日本后,他的主要職業是作一名英語教師和一名電腦工程師。他開始積極努力爭取成為一名演歌歌手,是因為他曾許諾他的祖母,總有一天他會在年度 Kohaku Uta Gassen 歌會上表演。因此,他在繼續電腦工程師的工作的同時積極參加了許多歌唱比賽,並在他抵達日本僅兩個月后最終取得了真正的成功。遺憾的是,他的祖母沒能看到她孫子在演歌上獲得的名氣,她在他成名之前的三年去世。 Jero 被選參加第59屆 NHK 的 Kohaku Uta Gassen , NHK 2008年的新年音樂會。他實現了自己向去世的祖母許下的承諾,出現在年度競爭賽上。 Jero 演出时身穿帶有他祖母形象的黑白相間T恤。

他的第一首單曲 Umiyuki (海雪,字意为"海洋雪") ,在日本於2008年2月20號發行。打入Oricon 排行榜第4名 。海雪,引自日本海,但Jero承認他曾經真正看到唯一一個海是在加利福尼亞州。
