Biography

Tobi Tokz, born Michael Oluwatobi Bhadmus in London, England, and currently residing there is a British-Nigerian gospel artist whose musical journey reflects a deep spiritual awakening and commitment to God.

His unique sound is characterized by a blend of soulful vocal tones, uplifting gospel messages, and a rich fusion of Afrobeat rhythms, making his music both culturally rooted and spiritually resonant. Raised in a Christian household, Tobi’s early passion for music was shaped by his involvement in his local church choir, where he sang and played drums. Despite his early experiences in gospel music, Tobi initially ventured into the Afrobeat and secular music scene, a period in his life that he now reflects on as a deviation from God’s plan for him.

His early exposure to music legends like Onyeka Onwenu and King Sunny Ade, as well as international influences such as LeAnn Rimes and Seal, helped shape his musical foundation. However, it was in the midst of personal loss and spiritual reflection that his true calling emerged.

Tobi took a break from the music industry to rediscover his spiritual roots, listening more closely to the voice of God and reconnecting with his gospel music origins.

Tobi’s rebirth as a gospel artist represents not just a genre shift but a complete renewal of purpose. He cites Romans 12:2 as a guiding scripture for his transformation: "Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind." This verse encapsulates his decision to turn away from secular music and embrace a path dedicated to spreading the gospel through his musical gifts.

His new music is deeply inspired by the Holy Spirit, drawing from moments of prayer, Bible study, and divine revelation. Unlike his past experiences of creating music based on his environment and external influences, Tobi’s gospel songs are spiritually driven, often coming to him through dreams or while meditating on scripture. His aim is to share God’s word in a way that resonates with people, helping them navigate their own spiritual journeys. Tobi’s transition to gospel music is not only a personal victory but a fulfillment of a long-standing calling that he believes he was meant to pursue from the beginning.

Now fully embracing his role as a vessel for God’s message, Tobi aims to inspire and uplift others through his music. His focus is on glorifying God, and he approaches every song as an opportunity to minister to his listeners, spreading love, hope, and faith. As he embarks on this new chapter, Tobi Tokz is committed to using his platform to make a lasting impact. His mission is rooted in the words of Mark 16:15, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation,” which fuels his desire to reach audiences globally.

With each new song, Tobi hopes to touch hearts, encourage spiritual growth, and foster a deeper connection to God. Tobi’s gospel journey is only beginning, but his message is clear: he is here to serve, sing, and spread the good news of Christ. Through his music, he aspires to lead others toward the peace, love, and purpose that can only be found in God.
