Rikki Jai is an Trinidadian chutney-soca artiste born Samraj Jaimungal in Friendship Village, San Fernando. Jai attended St Paul's Anglican Primary school after which he won a scholarship to Naparima College.

His debut hit single, Sumintra (1988), told the tale of an Indo-Trinidadian woman from Debe who informed her boyfriend of her preference for soca over the music of Indian artist Lata Mangeshkar. Jai returned the following year with Pumping, then Bolo and Show Me Yuh Motion.

His 1993 hit Wine on a Bumsee signalled Jai's exit from the soca world, opting for the "chutney soca" arena, in which he currently performs today. Always excelling at the Soca Chutney Monarch competitions, Jai released Chutney Vibrations, a compilation with soca chutney rhythms and his popular re-reading of the Juma.

In 2001 he tied for 1st place (with Bunji Garlin) for the Young King Title.

His most popular hit so far would be his song entitled "Mor Tor" fetauring fellow Trini soca star Machel Montano. In 2007 he released hits such as "Aj Bhi Jeena" and "Bodekidal." His latest hit is Drinkin Rum featuring Mr.Slaughter.
