Akinyemi

Akinyemi (ah-kin-yeh-me) is a 24-year old rapper, voice actor, songwriter, model, and producer. A Queens Village-native, Akinyemi is known for getting vulnerable in his lyrics, his sound often reflects “journey”, and self-reflection, with lyrics that embody introspection and self-care. Akinyemi’s name means “fated to be a warrior” in Yoruba, a Nigerian tribe in which his family originates. His namesake is the basis of his anticipated debut album, it’s about a journey of a Nigerian-American based in Queens trying to break through the mold & do something new and creative while creating a path for those in the future to do the same. Akinyemi is preparing to make waves, with support from Live Nation’s Ones To Watch. He’s been featured on Fresh Finds, Alternative Hip Hop, & Spilled Ink Spotify playlists. He is SoundCloud’s September Focus artist, with an upcoming Tidal music video premiere out alongside a continued push on their Rising campaign, and a continuous influx of support from Playlists on all major DSP’s.
