Biography

OSHUN are a neo-soul/hip hop act, created by artists Niambi Sala and Thandiwe and founded in 2013 at NYU. As collaborative partners, the two have created music, visuals, and spaces in honor of the divine feminine, carrying the name and traditions of the primordial West African deity, Ọṣun. Their supporters span across a diaspora of culture, age, and experience, and they’ve been recognized by Billboard, Rolling Stone, The FADER, NPR, Essence, REVOLT, Paper, Vogue and more. The debut album by OSHUN, bittersweet vol. 1 (Deluxe), was named a Best Female Rap Album of 2018 by Vibe and an “Essential Album of 2018” by Vice. Since forming, OSHUN have amassed more than 60M streams across all major DSPs, garnered nearly 3.5M views on their Solar Plexus - A COLORS SHOW performance, and collaborated with a number of artists including Princess Nokia, Jorja Smith & LION BABE. OSHUN have sold out shows across multiple continents; they previously performed at Glastonbury, Afropunk and Melt! Festival, and opened for Lauryn Hill’s 2020 North American tour. OSHUN has amassed a dedicated and passionate following, with more than 500K cumulative fans and followers. Beyond music, OSHUN commit a large portion of their time to their spiritual practice and community work - regularly hosting and performing at local events and workshops around the world. Their highly anticipated sophomore album 'vol. 2' will be released in November 2022, following the singles 100k & Kali.
