“Life is easier than people make it to be.” That’s the mantra Temivibes lives by — and it perfectly captures the energy he brings into every space he enters.
My name is Sogbesan Oluwaseun Adekunle Temidayo, popularly known as Temivibes (TV and Vibes). I’m from Ogun State, and I like to describe myself as a borderless creative — a talent manager and fun-loving individual passionate about making people happy.
From Onikolobo to the World
I grew up in Abeokuta, the capital of Ogun State, in a peaceful neighborhood called Onikolobo. It was calm, slow-paced, and serene — the kind of place that shaped my sense of community.
Growing up in a big compound filled with tenants meant endless childhood adventures. My friends and I played ball, “police and thief,” suwe, and every fun game imaginable. I started my education at St. Bernadette Nursery and Primary School, Oke Ilewo, Abeokuta, before moving on to FUNAAB International School, Alabata — one of the best times of my life.
It was a full boarding school experience that taught me valuable social and life skills. One fond memory that still makes me smile? Playing football in front of the entire boys’ hostel — always intense, always thrilling. Later, I attended Bells University, Ota, where I studied Surveying and Geoinformatics.
The Creative Detour
My career path hasn’t exactly been straightforward, but I’ve always known what I wanted. After my degree, I began my NYSC in 2020 at a GIS firm — but then COVID happened.
During the lockdown, I decided to learn social media marketing and management, which opened doors to online gigs while completing my service year. After NYSC, I worked full-time at Geoinfotech, a GIS firm in Ikeja, where I honed my training and technical skills.
But deep down, I knew my heart leaned toward marketing and fashion. That’s when I joined MaxAudience Limited, a marketing agency where I worked for over three years. While there, I never stopped nurturing my fashion interests — styling, creative direction, and brand collaborations.
Finding My Creative Balance
Striving to be the best version of myself, I began working intentionally as a Creative Director for a fashion brand called Staunchmen. Somehow, I managed to juggle it all — my 9–5, my creative gigs, and my social life.
Outside work, I co-host events with friends who run an app called Vegaz. I also love collaborating with fashion brands to bring bold ideas to life. One of my favorite projects was with Spaks, a fashion brand owner I connected with via Instagram. I helped elevate his brand’s online presence, secured a sponsor, and led an incredible fashion shoot — from models and photographers to logistics and production.
Another highlight was my collaboration with Severe Nature Wears, which I took personally as a portfolio piece to pitch for future creative jobs. Both projects were huge learning experiences and solidified my love for fashion marketing.
Accomplishments & Mentorship
My proudest accomplishments? The projects I’ve completed for my former employers and fashion clients — each one pushing my creative limits and proving the impact of my value.
I draw inspiration from incredible mentors; My Dad and Uncle, Arc. Adeolu Adekoya, whose wisdom guides me daily, Mrs. Bukola Ayodeji, my boss at MaxAudience, whose resilience and growth mindset inspire me. Mr. Michael Omijeh, CEO of Staunchmen, who constantly brings out the best in me.
The Fun Side of Temivibes
When I’m not working, I’m all about good vibes. The Spicy Gang got to experience firsthand at a house party I hosted in Lagos — let’s just say it was nothing short of legendary!
I’m also a huge Afrobeats lover. My top jams? Count Me Out by Joeboy, My Life by BNXN, Olufunmi by Style Plus, and Holla at Your Boy by Wizkid. I don’t have a single favorite artist, but I vibe to BNXN, Wizkid, Joeboy, Pheelz, Ruger, Rema, AEO, Iceblaze, and Oxlade.
All in all, being Nigerian, to me, means resilience and selflessness — embracing challenges with a smile and turning every opportunity into something meaningful.
You can connect with me on Instagram and X (@Temivibes) — because whether it’s music, fashion, or just pure energy, there’s always a little bit of TV and Vibes wherever I go.
