Meet Tomi Owó a dynamic songwriter with a distinct vocal tone, Tomi Owó incorporates reality with substance, to make for the musical output she is coming to be known for.
Born in Lagos, Nigeria, she grew up in a musically inclined family, where music from all over the world was appreciated, and where making music was a way to express the many facets of life; and she dreamed of making her contributions through music one day. With the musical brilliance she’s shown so far, Tomi Owo is expected to rattle the Nigerian music industry this year.

We put together 5 reasons why we love Tomi Owó: 

Her personality is likeable:
Tomi Owó has a personality that will make you fall in love. She is sweet, very down to earth and she shows love to everyone — no matter who they are. Tomi embraces her strength and coming into her confidence as a woman, a creator and a healer.

Tomi’s music hits our soul:
Her musical style is mellow, albeit rich with eclectic vocal dynamics. Her genre is unafraid, a musical palette splashed with urban soul, pop, and afro-inspired sounds. She has a soft but sultry voice that when she sings, it sounds like gentle bubbles of love.

Her music is relatable:
Tomi Owó believes music is a gift, and a channel through which we can tell our stories, support ideals, and inspire change. 
Her lyrics are firmly based on everyday experiences – hers and those of others, as she explores relatable human themes: resilience and kindness, affection and courage with many women (and men) being able to relate also.

She’s a creative genius:
When it comes to visual arts Tomi is extremely creative in this area. Growing up, she was also drawn to other forms of art, expressing this through personal poetry and dance. She likes to partake in the artwork for her music, as well as the visuals behind her videos and live performances. She continues to amaze us with her creativity.

She’s an original:
There is no doubt, Tomi Owó is one of the most refreshing artists in today’s music scene. 
Her lyrics and style of vocals are unlike your typical Nigerian artists, and that’s what makes her an original Gem!

Check out her latest song titled “Beautiful”

The song explores beauty in a way you may not expect. Painting both male and female scenarios, she wonders when they will take a step to answer the call to a new kind of life, to begin something life-changing.

“In many ways, “Beautiful” is the soundtrack to my life right now. And how funny, because I was not thinking about myself when I wrote it; I was thinking about everyone else-all the people searching for something, listening for a true voice, taking steps towards something they believe in-I was thinking about all of them.”
