Born and raised in Lagos, Nigeria, Eben is the fifth of six children in a Christian family. He attended Orile Primary School and Community Grammar School, both in Lagos.
Eben began his music career in 1997, initially as a rapper under the mentorship of his older brother. However, he later discovered his true calling as a gospel singer. His big break came in 2005 at a youth conference organized by Pastor Chris Oyakhilome, where his song Imarama was introduced to the public.
In 2006, Eben became a member of Christ Embassy, founded by Pastor Chris Oyakhilome. The following year, in 2007, he released his debut album On the Rock, featuring hit songs like Imaranma, God Dey, Iwo Nikan, and I Don Hammer. In 2010, he followed up with the album Phenomenon, which included tracks such as Super Man, Imele Papa, and Siya Nma. In 2013, Eben released Justified, which featured songs like You Alone Are Worthy, Onye Nwem, How I Love You, For Ever, and All The Way.
Eben also founded his record label, Hammer House of Rock, and its business arm, Hammer House Ventures, which specializes in video and music production, event management, and interior decoration. He later released another album, Magnified, with worship songs like Stayed On You, Everything, Idi Nma, and Lifted Hands. Eben gained widespread attention with his hit song Victory.
On September 15, 2019, Eben hosted Joyful Noise 2019, a live concert that featured prominent gospel artists and international musicians such as Bob Fitts and Phil Thompson.
