Ejire Aditu: How our father’s death affected our music career

Published by

Gospel duo, Taiye and Kehinde Ejire have described their journey into the world of gospel music as testament to their unwavering determination and faith.

The gospel singers who hail from Ogbomosho, Oyo State while speaking about their music career said the journey wasn’t always smooth sailing for them.

According to them, their educational journey began in Kaduna State, but a tragic turn of events altered their path. The untimely demise of their father disrupted their education, prompting them to relocate to Abuja. Faced with challenges, they decided to pursue adult education as a means to continue their learning journey.

For them, music was not a choice but a calling that manifested at a young age. Taiye Ejire John recalled composing songs as early as the age of seven.

“Music became our medium of expression, allowing us to communicate with the world.”

Our music is deeply rooted in gospel, carrying a message that we describe as S.I.E.M: spiritual, inspirational, educative, and motivational.

Choosing gospel music was a conscious decision for the duo. They saw themselves as ministers through song, not merely entertainers.

Their musical journey began in 2002, marking over two decades of dedication to their ministry. “We’ve produced numerous albums and singles that have touched the hearts of many. Some of our notable albums include “Aditu Ogo,” “Let There Be Favour,” “Ile Ogo Timo,” “Famigoke,” and “Rin Ile mi Koja.”

In addition to their albums, they’ve released impactful singles such as “Etun Ona Oluwa Se,” “Yeshua Hamashiach,” “Iyin Ye O,” “Efi Olorun se Akoko,” “Baba Modupe,” and “Ogo fun Olorun.”

Their latest work, released on various digital platforms on September 8, is a testament to their enduring passion for spreading the message of faith and hope through gospel music.
