AYOINMOTION

AYOINMOTION is a distinctively potent and dynamic global performing artist primarily based in Harlem, New York. He has been featured by The Grammys, graced the stages of the legendary Essence Festival, and Forbes for his music, profound activism and mindfulness. He has headlined Carnegie Hall's Neighborhood Concert series and recently rocked the Nwali Music Festival in South Africa. Motion's stunning music video catalogue is an mind-blowing artistic portfolio that has also garnered rave reviews, Omí (water) was recently featured at COP28 in Dubai.

No stranger to the main stage, AYOINMOTION has opened for the likes of Davido, Talib Kweli and Teni the Entertainer to name a few. Of Nigerian descent and coming of age in Flint, Michigan, Motion's worldview is shaped by a juxtaposition of experiences and a strong passion for using his artistry and voice for good vibes and social impact. He organized a benefit for the kidnapped Nigerian girls and performed with his band to raise funds for children affected by contaminated lead water in Flint, Michigan.

He was also active in creating safe spaces for mental health, wellness & social justice during the turbulent times of 2020 at the height of the pandemic, an effort that blossomed into a gathering called Good Vibes in the Park (GVIP). GVIP has since been commended with two resolutions from Harlem's Community Board's 9&10 as well as supported by the Manhattan Borough President's Office.

Motion has also honored invitations to speak on panels, forums and performances from Columbia University, Stanford University, NYU and many more, including University of Michigan where he recently headlined a global virtual concert.
