Journey

Raheem Rilwan Tobiloba, known professionally as Rheed1, is redefining the Afro-fusion landscape with his evocative artistry. Born in the bustling city of Lagos, Nigeria, Rheed1 immerses himself in Afrobeat, soul, and street-hop, crafting sounds that are both intimately personal and culturally resonant. His influences, including iconic figures such as Fela Kuti and contemporary voices like Omah Lay and Seyi Vibez, permeate his work, which navigates themes of struggle, aspiration, and spiritual reflection. Rheed1's breakout single, "Pinnacle," announced his arrival on the music scene with a raw intensity and emotional depth, demonstrating his ability to weave complex narratives with melodic interplay. The vibrant streets of Lagos not only framed his upbringing but also enriched his musical journey with a diversity of sounds and stories. As an independent artist, his dedication to songwriting and production has been pivotal in shaping his distinctive sound. With a growing audience resonating to his authentic storytelling, Rheed1 remains dedicated to producing music that elevates while fostering a deep connection with listeners, embodying both the richness of his geographical roots and the universal themes of human experience.
