Of part-Afro-Caribbean ancestry through his father, Jacob moved to London when he turned 17 to pursue his career in music, and in 2006 collaborated with Typesun on Typesun’s song “The PL”, and the following year the two worked together again, this time on the song “Let Me Know”. In 2008, Jacob teamed up with Plan B to record the song “I Need Love”, which was used as the soundtrack for the film “Adulthood”. His musical career continued to develop, and in 2013 he signed a recording contract with Columbia Records. The same year, Jacob released his first solo material, the EP “The Middle Child”, and in 2014 released two more EPs “Black and Blue”, and “Black and Blue Point Two”, while in 2016 he produced his debut studio album “You’re a Man Now, Boy”, which reached No. 32 on the UK chart, considerably boosting his net worth.

Meantime, Jacob’s acting career began with a couple of one-off appearances in such TV series as “Doctors” and “The Bill” in 2007. He then made his film debut in the crime-drama film “Adulthood” in 2008, written and directed by Noel Clarke, and starring Clarke with Alice Johnson and Adam Deacon. He then had the lead role in the television thriller film “Gunrush” in 2009, and the next year, featured in the thriller film “4.3.2.1”, starring Emma Roberts, Tamsin Egerton and Ophelia Lovibond, and again working with Noel Clarke, since he was the writer and director of the film. Jacob then starred in the horror film “Comedown”, next to Sophie Stuckey and Jessica Barden, and in 2013 he came to prominence when he was chosen for the part of Grey Worm, the leader of the Unsullied army in the critically acclaimed TV fantasy drama series “Game of Thrones”, based on the books written by George R. R. Martin. He has appeared in 28 episodes so far, which has earned him three SAG award nominations in the category for the Outstanding Performance by an Ensemble in a Drama Series, and significantly increased his net worth.

Since he started portraying Grey Worm, Jacob’s name became rather sought in the acting world, which resulted in several other successful roles, including as Dean Thomas in the TV crime-drama series “Broadchurch”, then as Steven in the TV comedy series “The Mimic” (2013-2014), and most recently he started working on the film “Overlord”, scheduled for release late in 2018.

Jacob is also known for his stage acting; some of his most successful appearances include in such plays as “Dunsinane”, “War Horse” and “King Lear”, which have also contributed to his net worth.

When it comes to his personal life, Jacob has been in a relationship with British actress Aisling Loftus since 2011. Other aspects of his private life remain unknown in the media.
