Gaudencio A. Sillona III, popularly known as Jay-R, was born and raised in Los Angeles, California. He was 2nd year college, taking up Computer Engineering, in Devry University in L.A. when he decided to come here and fulfill his dream... to become a singer.
He was once a part of a group named FI (First Impression). The group consisted of 5 guys namely: Mike Gabriel, Alex Bacani, Jayr Sillona, Jimmy Martinez (who came with Jay-R to Manila) and Owen Amurao. When Mike, Owen and Alex went their separate ways, Jay-R and Jimmy continued the group by adding another talented singer named Kris Cadevida. They would do gigs in Los Angeles, San Francisco, and Michigan.
Jay-R also belonged to a band that was lead by his Uncle, Robert Sillona. The band was called The Howlers. Being part of his uncle’s band was a huge part in Jay-R’s career... it taught him the ways of the stage!
He is currently signed under Universal Records. His first album, aptly titled ‘Game Face’, has 12 tracks on it, containing 2 original Tagalog songs: “Kaibigan”, written by his sister, Jhing Sillona; and “Bakit Pa Ba?” written by Vehnee Saturno. Most of the other songs on the album are RnB. He writes and produces his own songs. His first single “Design for Love” is a hip-hop/ RnB single that exhibits Jay-R’s amazing talent in singing and dancing.

Pagkatapos ng ulan
Bagama't nakalipas na ang mga sandali
Ay nagmumuni kung ako'y nagwagi
Pinipilit mang sabihin na ito'y wala sa akin
Ngunit bakit hanggang ngayon nagdurugo pa rin
Sa kanya pa rin babalik sigaw ng damdamin
Kung buhay pa ang alaala ng ating nakaraan
Ang pagmamahal at panahon alay pa rin sa kanya
Sa kanya
At sa hatinggabi ay nag-iisa na lang
Minamasdan ang larawan mo
At ngayo'y bumabalik nang siya'y kapiling pa
Alaala ng buong magdamag
Kung sakali man isipin na ito'y wala sa akin
Sana'y dinggin ang tinig kong nag-iisa pa rin
Sa kanya pa rin babalik sigaw ng damdamin
Sa kanya pa rin sasaya bulong ng puso ko (sa kanya)
Kung buhay pa ang alaala ng ating nakaraan (nakaraan)
Ang pagmamahal at panahon alay pa rin sa kanya (oh)
Oh sa kanya pa rin babalik sigaw ng damdamin
Sa kanya pa rin sasaya bulong ng puso ko
Kung buhay pa ang alaala
Sa kanya pa rin babalik sigaw ng damdamin
Sa kanya pa rin sasaya bulong ng puso ko
Kung buhay pa ang alaala ng ating nakaraan
Ang pagmamahal at panahon
Ha
Ang pagmamahal at panahon alay pa rin
Sa kanya ah
Sa kanya

Namulat ako at ngayo'y nag-iisa
I have opened my eyes and now I am alone.
Pagkatapos ng ulan
After the rain.
Bagama't nakalipas na ang mga sandali
Although the moments have already passed.
Ay nagmumuni kung ako'y nagwagi
I still wonder if I have won.
Pinipilit mang sabihin na ito'y wala sa akin
Even though I try to say that it's not in me.
Ngunit bakit hanggang ngayon nagdurugo pa rin
But why until now, it's still bleeding.
Sa kanya pa rin babalik sigaw ng damdamin
My emotions will still shout for her.
Sa kanya pa rin sasaya bulong ng puso ko
My heart's whisper will still be for her happiness.
Kung buhay pa ang alaala ng ating nakaraan
If the memories of our past still exist.
Ang pagmamahal at panahon alay pa rin sa kanya
Love and time are still dedicated to her.
At sa hatinggabi ay nag-iisa na lang
And late at night, I am all alone.
Minamasdan ang larawan mo
I am looking at your picture.
At ngayo'y bumabalik nang siya'y kapiling pa
And now it's returning when you were still with me.
Alaala ng buong magdamag
Memories of the whole night.
Kung sakali man isipin na ito'y wala sa akin
If in case I think it's not in me.
Sana'y dinggin ang tinig kong nag-iisa pa rin
I hope you hear my lonely voice.
Oh sa kanya pa rin babalik sigaw ng damdamin
Oh, my emotions will still shout for her.
Ang pagmamahal at panahon alay pa rin
Love and time are still dedicated.
Sa kanya
To her.
Ha
Ha.
Sa kanya ah
To her ah.
Sa kanya
To her.
