TEMITOPE (Teh-ME-toh-PEH) is a singer/songwriter and activist based out of Nashville, TN. His name “Temitope” means “mine is thanks” and originates from the Yorùbá tribe in Nigeria, where his dad grew up. Through his Nigerian dad and British mom who both immigrated to the United States, TEMITOPE experienced the beauty of diversity within his multicultural household. He has a heart for unity through diversity and believes it is accomplished by standing together with our differences, instead of standing against each other because of our differences. This passion has fueled much of TEMITOPE’s songwriting and has created opportunities to share his music at events such as Worship Together Conferences, Hope Events with Prison Fellowship and Civil Righteousness Rallies. TEMITOPE has also been featured in written and online publications, shared his story on various podcasts, invited to participate in diversity initiatives and developed original educational resources through THE LUMPY COUCH that facilitate uncomfortable conversations about unity.
