About Artist

TiMi is a Nigerian Afrobeat artist, producer, and songwriter known for blending Afrobeat with Afropop and contemporary African sounds. A multi-instrumentalist, he began his musical journey as a child in a church choir, where he developed his vocal and instrumental skills. His music combines infectious rhythms with melodic songwriting, helping him build a rapidly growing audience.

TiMi gained wider recognition through songs such as Soldier (featuring Kpee and Priesst), Whenever (with Loye), Detty December, Over Me, and Nuwe Lewe. In 2026, he released Soldier II featuring Rwandan rapper KidFromKigali, further expanding his presence across Africa. He continues to establish himself as one of Nigeria's promising new Afrobeat talents. 

Born in Ghana to a Nigerian father and a Ghanaian mother, Timi was primarily raised by his grandmother in Port Harcourt, south-eastern Nigeria, after his mother died when he was just 13. His love of singing was nurtured by his grandmother.
