Who is TolumiDE?

I’m a Nigerian-Canadian Singer-Songwriter Artist. My name TolumiDE translates as “Thank God” in Yorùbá language from Nigeria. I’m grateful for the gift of song and I love to sing, dance, create and share my art. I describe my music as “Suya Soul” a phrase I coined to describe the fusion of Contemporary R&B with African Pop music. Suya, being a popular Spicy Grilled Shish kebab (skewered meat) indigenous to Nigeria represents the alternative music flavour I offer to listeners who love soulful music.

Influenced by acts within R&B, Gospel and Classic Soul genres such as Sade, India Arie, Mary Mary and Africa Pop stars as Angelique Kidjo, Onyeka Owenu and Christy Essien Igokwe. My albums ‘Specialty’, ‘My Love’ and ‘Mama Sunshine’ reflect the cross-cultural blend of Soul Inspiration and Afropop with mainly English lyrics and the touch of African Spice in the form of native language and rhythm.

My music art has received rave reviews and multiple awards including Best R&B Female Artist at the Nigerian Entertainment Awards. My latest single ‘Throwback’ peaked at #3 on the Global Top Independent airplay chart.

Thank you in advance for taking the time to listen to some of my tunes and possibly becoming a fan.
