With a flow as unique as the message he brings, Mosope “Spoken” Adeyemi seeks to bring “the uncompromising truth of God in the language of the culture.” Being familiar with the Hip Hop culture, Spoken is no stranger to the genre of music, and thus seeks to use the same medium to fulfill the great commission of preaching the gospel and making disciples. Despite his young age, his flow and lyrical ability have been compared to such gospel heavyweights as Da.’ T.R.U.T.H., Lecrae, Flame, and even the secular Lupe Fiasco, to name a few. However, taking cues from these musical and ministerial icons, to him ministry comes first.
Although born and bred in a Christian home, Mosope never made the faith his own. Very rambunctious and adventurous, it’s a testimony that the Lord kept him out of major harm. In God’s providence on October 31, 2003 God snatched Spoken from a life of decadence after having a personal encounter with the Lord. Since then, he’s been continually growing in the grace and anointing of God.
Unlike many destined to make music, Spoken cannot say he always knew he would end up in the industry, nor can he claim he always wanted to make music. Unbeknown to him, this talent for putting words together and presenting the perfect delivery would lie dormant for the first 16 years of his life. “I don’t actually remember specifically how I started making music. It was neither something I had always done, nor was it as though I one day had an epiphany (laughing). At some point around age 14 I just started scribbling little rhymes on offering envelopes here and there. Not sure why really. Then quite randomly at age 16, I decided to perform one of my poems at my youth church, and the response was phenomenal…,” he recounts. But despite the immediate reception he received, Spoken chose to remain unknown for another two years, often refraining from doing shows outside his local church. Only now at age 20 does he feel the LORD has given him the approval to move beyond his local setting. Since his official entrance into the Gospel music industry in 2009, Spoken has already been blessed with opportunities to perform to large crowds.
In 2009, he shared the stage with GRAMMY nominee, and 2X Stellar Award Winner, Da’ T.R.U.T.H in the Cavalry Concert- Da’ T.R.U.T.H’s first appearance in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. Later that same year, he also ministered at Ottawa’s premier music festival, Cisco’s Bluesfest, alongside artists such as Israel and New Breed, Papa San, New World Son, and Spirit & Truth. The entire music festival drew an attendance of 30 000+. This year he had the opportunity to open up for LECRAE during his first visit to Canada. Additionally, he has ministered at numerous local concerts in the GTA, and as far as Ottawa. Despite such success, in God’s providence, Spoken is keeping a level head about everything. Spoken is currently signed to Role Model Records and managed by Red Vision Music Group.
