Omotomiwa Kehinde Osems, professionally known as Tomzy, is a Nigerian-born Afrofusion artist whose relocation to London has catalyzed both creative growth and tangible contributions to the UK’s cultural and economic sectors. Having spent a few years in the UK, Tomzy has demonstrated not only professional development but also emerging influence within London’s dynamic and globally-connected music scene.

Born in Edo State and initially active in Lagos’s bustling Afrobeats community, Tomzy gained early attention through singles such as “Riddim” (2018) and “Shakara” (2019). These tracks reflected the hallmarks of Nigerian Afrobeats: rich percussion, romantic themes, and vibrant rhythms. Since relocating to the UK, Tomzy has released significant new work, including the Good Boy Gone Bad EP and “That Thing” where he worked with British Instrumentalist, Timur Wilson. These projects illustrate his evolving artistry, marked by genre fusion and deeper lyrical range, aligning with the UK’s hybrid soundscape.

In London, Tomzy has benefited from the city’s world-class creative infrastructure, including programmes like Creative Wick’s Music Incubator, Solitude Studios, and performance platforms such as Stratford Cross and The Roundhouse. His participation in Creative Wick’s 2023 Music Incubator offered him mentorship, studio access, and a public showcase—resources that have demonstrably sharpened his stylistic focus and expanded his professional network. He collaborated with a cohort of emerging UK talent (e.g., Hallie, Kaine, and Timur) and received direct feedback from industry professionals, positioning him as a credible contributor to the British music ecosystem.

Tomzy’s music now exists at the intersection of Afrobeats, UK pop, and R&B, reflecting London’s multicultural vibrancy. His ability to traverse styles (from dancehall-inflected club tracks to introspective, mid-tempo ballads) broadens his audience while contributing to the UK’s cultural hybridity. His recent work has been described by local media as tapping into “romantic and nostalgic moods,” while retaining the braggadocio and charisma emblematic of West African musical traditions.

Crucially, Tomzy adds value to the UK music industry not just artistically but also economically. As a UK-based artist, his streaming revenue, royalties, and performance earnings feed into the country’s booming creative economy—valued at £124 billion in 2023, with the music sector alone generating £7.6 billion. His international performances, such as his 2024 performance the Afro Love Fest in Germany, extend the UK’s cultural influence abroad, functioning as a form of soft power through music diplomacy. This enhances the UK’s global image as a cultural leader and exporter of hybrid genres.

Moreover, Tomzy’s presence contributes to the diversification of the UK music industry, aligning with national efforts to promote inclusion and cultural pluralism. In a London city where nearly half the workforce is foreign-born, his work embodies the strengths of diaspora creativity. While the UK has benefited from his artistic and cultural input, Tomzy has equally advanced as a creator—gaining access to mentorship, exposure, and institutional endorsement that were less readily available in Nigeria.

That said, the trajectory is still unfolding. While he has achieved early recognition, the sustainability of his influence will depend on his ability to refine a unique and coherent sound, leveraging institutional support into long-term artistic autonomy. Yet all signs indicate an artist in active formation—with a growing body of work, collaborative reach, and deepening roots in the UK.
