Artiste Spotlight: Anendlessocean

Alli Hakeem Ayobami, professionally known as Anendlessocean (or AEO), emerged in the Nigerian music scene as a singer‑songwriter whose art springs from both personal testimony and a desire to uplift. Though often grouped under “contemporary gospel,” he resists being boxed, preferring to address love, hope, social consciousness, and worship across his evolving soundscape.

Brief History of the Artiste and His Musical Style

Rooted in a childhood split between Christian and Muslim households, Anendlessocean spent formative years in Abuja before relocating to Lagos after losing his mother at age fourteen; a pivotal moment that led him to the guitar and songwriting. Writing from the heart, he began sharing music professionally in the last five years, channeling grief into messages of hope. Described as contemporary gospel with “remarkable sonic range,” his work traverses folk‑pop, Caribbean pop, fuji‑pop, house, and amapiano elements, always undergirded by a soulful, worshipful spirit. He intentionally embraces variety (“because God loves variety”) moving seamlessly from reflective guitar ballads to rhythm‑driven praise.
