His father, Ephrem Ocalia Sr., sang and was his first inspiration as a child. Ephrem J started his singing try-outs as most children does, participating in local talent shows. He was soon discovered as a talented young singer and started to sing at a very young age in local bands. While attending school he continued singing in local bands like the OK-band and got guidance by experienced singers, although he remains a largely self-taught singer. Than, he dropped out of school, soon quit the OK Band and became the lead singer of the local band Guess, singing mostly "ritmo kombin�¡", a local popular dance music.

Highly inspired by singers as Luther Vandross and other American and Latin American vocalists, Ephrem J quit the band Guess, only to start his solo career early 2007. At that moment, Ephrem J had several compositions- written by him while day dreaming about his future- of ballads, latin R&B and slow groove songs and approached Jazz musicians Gregory Colina and Gedeon Chandler, to arrange the songs musically. He then entered the recording studio and soon released his first album as a soloist. Both the cover song "Speransa" (hope) and "Stimabu So" reached the local radio charts. Meanwhile Ephrem J was the focus during two concerts and got very busy days as singer for many private celebrations. He also entered the world of commercials, singing a local jingle for a popular brand of condom, appearing on a billboard for a jeans pants company and on several advertisement posters. His popularity grew even more among the local community and was again credited as a vocalist at the end of 2007 receiving several awards, one of which was the "Edgar Supriano-prize" by the national association of musicians and artists, AMAK, as singer of the year. In 2008 he started the year again with big impact, participating at the carnival's Tumba Festival with one of the most popular bands Gio Fuertisimo and got recognition again, as the third finalist among more than 60 participants.

No siento tu respirar
Te extraño por dentro aunque veo tus ojos siento que estás lejos de mi
Yo vivo sufriendo porque tu eres otra
No de la que me enamoré
