London-born NIJI, gained early acclaim touring as a session musician with Harry Styles, Stormzy, Gregory Porter, Charlie Puth, Michelle Williams and more. He then became the New York Knicks' resident organist at Madison Square Garden.
Oríkì is an album blending jazz, Fuji and Afrobeat in a powerful tribute to Yorùbá heritage. Six years in the making, the album draws inspiration from NIJI’s great-grandmother, Matilda Taiwo (Mata), and serves as his personal statement on identity, history, and homecoming.
Featuring Mercury Prize-shortlisted Moses Boyd, Afronaut Zu (Steam Down, Rudimental) and spoken word artist Adesayo, Oríkì merges ancestral praise with contemporary expression. The album is threaded with the evocative rhythms of the talking drum, grounding each composition in cultural authenticity.
With Oríkì, NIJI invites listeners into his journey of reconnection, presenting a work both timeless and rooted—a musical expression of past, present and future converging.
