Biography

My Real Name is HALLE LIONEL NLONG, Professionally known as MONEIRO (Artist Name).
I was born on the 25th July 1998, in Tombel Kupe Manenguba Division, South West Region Cameroon.
I am off Bakossi origin and both of my parents are teachers. They gave birth to 3 boys, and I am the second of the boys.
As a boy, I was in my church choir YP, (Youth Presbyterians) until I left primary school for a boarding school.
My passion for music led me in creating a group in my secondary school called “Jail Money Gang” with 5 boys as members but we never recorded a song.

Immediately after my A\L (ADVANCE LEVEL), I had my first studio recording session at 17 years old in 2017 in Nkongsamba.
The titled of the song was “Nooh” a downloaded beat from Youtube and was mix and recorded by NVA, (a local producer in my neighborhood).

With just words of mouth, I was sign to ONE MIC MUSIC then based in Buea (Cameroon). We had multiple projects in mind but never dropped a song under them.
I came back to Nkongsamba and recorded “Mama” in late 2018 with my producer being Stermanone Project Studio.
Well acclaimed in my society, the song mama was aired at NKONGSAMBA FM and other local areas.

In 2021, I organised my first show in Nkongsamba under STONER GANG ENTERTAINMENT and alot of people attended,making it a success!! I released “Societal Ills” feat Jobiss, mix and mastered by Spidibom Music shortly after. This song is a mirror of what human beings do just to make their dreams come true.
I have recorded and made verses to some challenges such as MIC MONSTA’S SHOW OFF CHALLENGE, ICE PRINCE’S BORN IN NAIJA.
