She is a University of Lagos economics graduate. She was a member one of Nigeria’s most celebrated urban gospel band- Kush made up of her, Emem and Lara.
Her debut album, Green Land, took over two years to write. The video for Green land has been hailed as one of the best ever from Nigeria. She shot the video herself. She wrote the title track, for her countryfolk to levitate from a place of despair to a place of hope. In Ekundayo, the song narrates a conversation between herself and Mrs. Ekundayo (the proprietress of Ekundayo Children's Home, an orphanage in Isanlu, Kogi State). TY’s album was produced by Mosa Adegboye, a talented young Nigerian with as much hope in our Green Land as TY herself. Green Land was released on North Avenue Records.
