INTRODUCTION
My name is Timi Phoenix, I am a Contemporary Gospel artist based in Lagos Nigeria. Starting out in 2011, I have remained dedicated to releasing excellent contents that have included five albums, several singles and a catalogue of captivating visuals[videos] to further propagate the gospel. I have also collaborated with an array of gospel artistes contributing to projects in various capacities; from songwriting to singing, and performing at gospel shows. My commitment to contributing a quota in establishing gospel music as a valuable genre for this generation and beyond has remained a driving force. After My first introduction to the Near Protocol in June 2022, I saw a vision of an all-encompassing Decentralized digital platform that will yield an explosive growth. This vision is what led to the decision to execute a debut project under the NxM DAO. and in recent time work on other project in the Blaqk-Stereo DAO Near Tribe and more
So far, the journey has been a very interesting one with growing interests and support from artistes, producers and management executives, as we create this platform for the development of creative arts across Africa.

This will be held at [Kulture Yard] in Ikeja, Lagos, and will bring together 100 gospel artistes and creatives that are actively using their crafts to contribute significantly to the overall growth of the gospel music industry.
