Born & raised in Queens, NY & currently based in Brooklyn, Akinyemi is a Nigerian-American independent artist who is extremely versatile & often creates music that blurs genre lines. On his debut project, REBORN, he showcases an intimate offering of the human experience in 12 songs.

Akinyemi is a multi-disciplinary artist who instead of looking for excuses, figured out all the aspects of his creative process in-house.
