Lord Restore My Joy - Yoruba Prayer

What does it actually take to build a business that lasts 25 years in Nigeria — through recessions, exchange rate crashes, COVID, counterfeit competitors, and a rapidly changing economy? Mrs. Temilola Adepetun has the answer, and it is not what most people expect.This episode of Founders Connect is one of the most layered and honest conversations about what entrepreneurship really looks like over the long term. Temilola breaks down exactly how she validated a business idea in her head before there was internet, how she dragged inventory through the streets of New York in winter with stiff hands and no nails left just to keep the business stocked, and how she survived two major competitors rising up to take her market — not by going to war with them, but by refusing to compromise on quality until her customers came back to her on their own.She talks about the real cost of growing too fast, the discipline of growing organically, and why staying focused on your lane in the early years is one of the most underrated business decisions a founder can make. She walks through what it took to go from being the sole operator of a seasonal business to building a head office, hiring a COO thirteen years in, doubling revenue within two years of that hire, and then using that momentum to attract private equity. She explains what due diligence actually looked like for a brick-and-mortar business and why the most powerful thing she ever did was bank every single naira she made and keep audited records from day one.She also shares her mental model for leaving corporate life, the Yoruba philosophy that shaped her decision to take the leap, how she read the market before anyone else saw it, and the specific mindset shift that helped her see a seasonal business not as a limitation but as a puzzle to solve. And she opens up about succession planning, the deliberate decision to pass operational control to a younger leader whose values aligned with hers, and why she believes that letting other people in — truly in — is the most important thing a founder can do to make their business outlast them.If you have ever wondered whether it is too late to start, whether a simple idea can become something serious, whether a non-tech business can scale, attract capital, and compete globally, this episode is the answer.

It's Day 2 of Shark Week!Today on the show, actress Wunmi Mosaku joins Chioma in the London podcast studio. The two dive into Sinners — from how she landed the role to the powerful lessons she learned while portraying Annie.“My team said, ‘Ryan Coogler wants to meet you for his next film.' And I was like, ‘Ryan Coogler knows who I am?'” she recalls, reflecting on the moment she was first invited to audition. Fast forward to today: Wunmi has earned her first Academy Award nomination and picked up her first BAFTA just last week.Wunmi also opens up about why she chose to announce her second pregnancy at the Golden Globe Awards. “I wanna be present, and if I'm divorcing my head and my body, I'm not really welcoming the baby into this too,” she says, referencing the difficulties of keeping her pregnancy under wraps. “It feels like you're kind of taking them for granted. They're here with you.”Spotting a gap in the maternity fashion industry, Wunmi shares why she decided to launch her own line, Iyadé — meaning “mother has arrived” in Yoruba. She even hints at what she might be wearing to the Academy Awards next weekend. Listen here!The Run-Through with Vogue is your go-to podcast where fashion meets culture.

Zombie (1976) by Fela Anikulapo Kuti & Africa 70 is one of the most ferocious and politically confrontational albums in the history of African music. Built on Fela's signature Afrobeat—long, hypnotic grooves driven by layered percussion, cycling bass lines, stabbing horns, and call-and-response vocals—the album functions as both a musical marathon and a blistering act of protest.The title track, which takes up most of the record, is a biting satire aimed at the Nigerian military. Fela portrays soldiers as mindless “zombies,” trained only to obey commands without thought or conscience. Delivered in a mix of pidgin English and Yoruba-inflected phrasing, the lyrics are simple, repetitive, and intentionally chant-like, allowing the message to hit with relentless force as the groove stretches on. The band locks into a tense, almost militaristic rhythm, while the horns punctuate the song like alarms, underscoring the sense of confrontation and mockery.Musically, Zombie is a masterclass in controlled intensity. Africa 70 plays with absolute precision, maintaining deep-pocket funk while slowly building pressure over extended runtimes. Rather than chasing variation, the music thrives on repetition as resistance, using subtle shifts in rhythm and horn lines to keep the listener engaged while reinforcing the song's political stance.The album's impact went far beyond music. Its release directly provoked Nigeria's military regime, culminating in a violent attack on Fela's Kalakuta Republic compound—a moment that cemented Zombie as a cultural and political flashpoint. Today, the album stands as a towering example of how music can function as protest, satire, and communal rallying cry, embodying Fela Kuti's belief that sound itself could be a weapon against oppression.Website Support the show Contact

Breaking Loose From All Evil Covenant - Yoruba Prayer

En este episodio de Contadores de historias, Santiago Segovia recibe en el estudio a un invitado excepcional: Christian Valerio, mejor conocido como "El Niño de la Luz". En una charla honesta y sin filtros, Christian nos relata cómo sus dones espirituales se manifestaron desde los cinco años, llevándolo de ser un niño sanador en una parroquia de Guadalajara a formarse como seminarista y especialista en liberaciones dentro de la Iglesia Católica.Christian comparte por primera vez los detalles de una de las experiencias más aterradoras de su vida: un encuentro físico con una entidad demoníaca mientras realizaba una vigilia en un convento, precisamente a las 3:33 AM. Además, nos explica el polémico giro que dio su vida al abandonar el clero para adentrarse en la religión Yoruba y el Palo Mayombe, revelando las sorprendentes similitudes entre los altares católicos y la Santería.

For this creative project, my starting point was an archival recording of a Yoruba chant from Nigeria, recorded around 1911. I chose to work with this sound because, living in West Africa, these sonorities immediately resonated in me. They echo my daily environment, my personal history, and my fieldwork, which lies at the intersection of culture, music, and museum practice.In my creative process, I deliberately chose to work with electronic instruments. This choice may appear paradoxical, as I am myself a kora player and am surrounded by traditional artists and musicians. However, this approach was central to my intention: to bring the past and the present into dialogue, to confront archival material with contemporary creation, and to explore the relationship between sonic memory and current technologies.It was essential for me not to alter the sound quality of the original recording, in order to respect its materiality, its texture, and its historical character. The electronic work therefore positions itself around the sound, creating a space of dialogue without ever dominating the recorded voice.This artistic choice is part of a broader reflection on colonial sound archives, their circulation today (repatriation?), and the possibility of giving them a living, sensitive, and contemporary presence without freezing or betraying them. The aim is not to reinterpret the past, but to create an bridge between different temporalities, allowing the archival sound to continue speaking for itself.Igbo vocal group with leader and percussion reimagined by Jerome Evanno.———Part of the project A Century of Sounds, reimagining 100 sounds covering 100 years from the collections of the Pitt Rivers Museum at the University of Oxford.

Power For Success In Our Career - Yoruba Prayer

Lord empower me over bondage - Yoruba Prayer

Ajaabale is a piece of local news in the Yoruba dialect with the duo presentation of Bayo and Abolade.

Recorded live at the Stony Island Arts Bank with the Chicago Architecture Biennial Robert Burnier joins Duncan MacKenzie and Brian Andrews for a wide-ranging conversation that moves between sculpture, drawing, divination systems, urban planning, Mondrian, Agnes Martin, and the politics of place. Known for his bent and torsioned aluminum works—objects that hold gesture, decision, and duration in their skins—Burnier talks about a recent body of drawings made while traveling between Europe and South Africa. Working on translucent washi paper, the pieces attempt to register light, color, and spatial memory rather than image, emerging from time spent in Cape Town's Bo-Kaap and the erased landscape of District Six. The discussion connects these experiences to Burnier's upbringing in Oak Park and to larger questions about how communities are structured, protected, or destroyed through seemingly mundane formal decisions. From there the conversation spirals outward into the role of myth, tarot, and Yoruba divination as models for thinking through chaos, and into the slow time of art as a counterpoint to the speed of contemporary media. Lorezetti's Allegory of Good and Bad Government becomes a touchstone for considering how abstraction can carry ethical or civic attitude without becoming propaganda, and how form itself can function as content. Throughout, Burnier frames sculpture and drawing as "sites of possibility" rather than statements—tuning forks for thought that ask viewers to complete the work through their own duration and attention. The episode closes with talk of new material directions following a recent Pollock-Krasner grant and an ongoing commitment to work that never fully resolves, but keeps adjusting—open, provisional, and in motion.

Yemoja is one of the most revered and powerful mother figures in African spiritual traditions. Known as the Mother of Waters, she governs oceans, rivers, fertility, childbirth, emotional healing, and protection. From the depths of the sea to the hearts of her devotees, Yemoja represents creation, compassion, and unstoppable feminine power.In this episode, we explore Yemoja's origins in Yoruba belief systems, her role as the divine mother of many Orishas, and how her worship traveled across the world through the African diaspora. We also examine her presence in traditions such as Santería and Candomblé, her symbolism in rituals and festivals, and why she continues to be honored in modern spiritual and cultural spaces.This episode is a journey into water as life, motherhood as divinity, and the enduring legacy of one of Africa's greatest goddess figures.Read more at http://mythlok.com/yemoja/Dive into the story of Yemoja — where oceans meet origin, and mythology meets living belief.

Sllash & Doppe vs. Hilary Duff - Yoruba Sparks (Mashup) by Ryan Tiffin

Send us a textWhat if jazz didn't just borrow from culture but stood inside it, breathing in real stories and rhythms from across the Sahara? We sit down with The Salako—musician, festival founder, and fearless improviser—to map the living space between Yoruba folk, Afro jazz, and the kind of stage magic that turns a crowd into an instrument.We talk about identity and clarity—why he embraced “The Salako” to guide listeners to the right artist—and then get into the core of his craft. He shares how Bobby McFerrin's approach unlocked a mindset of freedom: starting from a spark, building songs with the room, and letting rhythm, audience voices, and raw texture find their form. That same spirit led him to create the Abuja International Afro Jazz Festival, a truly global platform where artists bring their culture into jazz, not the other way around. From South African mentors to Norwegian partners and a Senegalese groove, the festival gives Abuja a front-row seat to the world's musical dialects.We challenge assumptions about attention spans and “easy music,” and discuss why depth still wins when presented with honesty. The Salako writes long-form pieces, then crafts radio edits for entry points, trusting listeners to seek the full journey. That faith pays off: Gen Z showed up and stayed to the last note at the most recent festival. He also teases Pirates of the Sahara, dropping alongside his April tour, with themes that look beyond love to real issues—discipline, social strain, traffic impatience—carried by bold meters, brass, and storytelling arcs. A highlight, Dagunro, reframes a Yoruba warning tale as a cinematic, 7/8 surge that feels both ancient and new.Underneath it all sits a generous belief: everyone is musical. The Salako loves turning audiences into choirs because creativity isn't a niche—it's human. If you're curious about African jazz, cultural storytelling, improvisation, and how legacy-minded work can still thrill a modern crowd, this conversation is your map.

Two women with art galleries in Switzerland, London, Nigeria and the US talk about discovering and promoting new artists, building relationships with art collectors and the importance of supporting women in the art world.Maria Varnava is Greek Cypriot and grew up in Lagos. She founded Tiwani Contemporary which has galleries in Lagos and London. It champions artists from Africa and its diaspora to raise their profile to collectors and institutions based both in and beyond the continent. Maria's friend and mentor, the Nigerian curator Bisi Silva, proposed the name Tiwani, which loosely translates as ‘ours' or ‘it belongs to us' from the Yoruba language. The name was chosen to show the gallery's intentions to strive for inclusivity.Kendra Jayne Patrick, from the US founded her gallery of the same name in Bern, Switzerland in 2022 and works in New York too. She likes to show things that are strange or new and that excite her both visually and intellectually.

The viral “6-7” chant has taken over culture—echoing through stadiums, classrooms, TikTok videos, and livestreams—yet almost no one understands where it came from or why it spread so fast. This video traces the trend back to its unlikely source: Philly rapper Skrilla, whose song “Doot Doot” contains the now-famous “6-7” line. What begins as a harmless meme unravels into something far darker as his openly practiced Santería, Palo rituals, animal sacrifices, and spell-casting come to light. With lyrics referencing soul-snatching and songs named for Yoruba deities, the cultural explosion suddenly appears far more intentional than accidental. The episode explores whether the 6-7 chant has spiritual roots, ritualistic energy, or deeper meaning behind the scenes—especially when compared with passages like Ezekiel 13:18 describing those who “hunt human souls." By examining Skrilla's practices, the symbolism behind his music, and the mysterious global spread of “6-7,” this video digs into the spiritual, cultural, and supernatural layers of a trend millions are repeating without knowing its origin.
