-Liberian Afrobeat Star Praised for Investing in Poultry Business to Boost Food Security and Diversify Income
Monrovia – Liberian Afropop sensation Jonathan Lee Pratt, popularly known by his stage name JZyNo, is proving that his vision stretches far beyond the music stage. The award-winning hitmaker, whose breakout singles have cemented his place among Liberia’s biggest exports in contemporary African music, has now ventured into agribusiness with the launch of Eggland, a poultry company based in Bomi County.
For JZyNo, the move is both strategic and deeply personal. In a statement on his official Facebook page, the artist revealed that Eggland is not just a side project but a vital investment fueling both his music career and Liberia’s food security.
“This is one of our little investments that helps in putting money on the table for music promotion and other things,” JZyNo wrote. “We are growing gradually but will need your support in order to get bigger. We are Eggland… fully in business and ready to distribute our healthy and organic eggs to consumers far or near.”
The venture has already attracted wide praise, most notably from Cllr. Moriah Yeakula-Korkpor, a prominent Liberian feminist, lawyer, and advocate for youth empowerment. Applauding the young star’s business acumen, she called his decision a model for how African entertainers can secure long-term financial success.
“ZyNo, this is fire. You truly understand the music industry. Make your money and invest it to make more money for you. This is how artists actually get wealthy; not just from music but their investments,” Cllr. Yeakula-Korkpor remarked. “We’re so proud of you. Please make sure you consistently promote Eggland like you promote your music. Keep being a trailblazer. I’ve followed the page and I’ll patronize. Y’all go put in your orders.”
With Liberia’s poultry industry often struggling to meet demand, Eggland is positioning itself as a reliable supplier of fresh, organic eggs, while also contributing to local employment and food sustainability. JZyNo says his goal is not just profit but creating a business that feeds his people and empowers communities.
For fans, Eggland is another side to the artist they know for his Afrobeat rhythms and chart-topping collaborations. For aspiring entrepreneurs, it is a powerful reminder that creative talent, when paired with smart investments, can build a legacy that lasts far beyond the music.
Eggland is located in Bomi County and can be reached at +231 88 811 7761.
As JZyNo continues to thrill on stage, his latest venture proves that he is equally focused on building wealth, inspiring others, and cracking new opportunities—one egg at a time.
