Written by JFORTMEDIA | Architects of Africa’s Image Identity
At JFORTMEDIA, our mission is to spotlight the artists and voices shaping the real image of modern Africa — the raw, the bold, the brilliant.
And today, we’re proud to tell the story of a voice that’s redefining Afrobeats from the inside out.
Her name? MODOLA.
Born Temidola Awosika in Lagos, Nigeria.
A name you’re going to keep hearing — because this is more than talent.
This is truth. This is presence. This is the beginning of legacy.
Bold. Bilingual. Unapologetically Herself.
sheisMODOLA is not your typical “rising star.”
She’s intentional, not accidental.
She’s bilingual, not boxed in.
She’s a Lagos-born creative force carrying the sound of the streets, the spirit of her ancestors, and the energy of the global stage all in one breath.
From the hustle-heavy corners of Nigeria to the spotlight of London and Manchester, she’s not just playing the game — she’s rewriting the rules.
Where It All Started — A Voice from the Soil
Modola’s beginnings weren’t polished, and that’s exactly what makes them powerful. Her journey didn’t begin with stage lights or social media buzz — it began with writing late at night, recording rough takes, and using music as a safe place. As a child of Nigeria’s richly layered soundscape — Fuji, Afro-soul, highlife — she didn’t just absorb music, she became a vessel for it.
That duality — of living in the trenches but dreaming globally — shaped her into the artist she is today. Her fluency in both English and Yoruba isn’t just a linguistic skill; it’s a metaphor. Modola speaks to both worlds: the rawness of where she’s from, and the vastness of where she’s headed.
“TALK” — Her First Word to the World
When “Talk” dropped, we felt it immediately. It wasn’t dressed up for radio or watered down for playlists — it was raw, loud, and real. A record that carried both purpose and presence. With airplay already spinning across 45+ radio stations and digital streams growing steadily, the song is doing what real music should do: start conversations and spark connection.
It’s not just a song. It’s an announcement — and the world is listening.
Media Moves that Matter
Since her debut, Modola has been on a mission — not to go viral, but to go deep. She’s shown up on every mic that matters, from Lagos to Ibadan, Abuja to Port Harcourt. And every time, she brings the same thing: authenticity.
Her radio sessions aren’t rehearsed soundbites. They’re real talk, delivered with charm, conviction, and clarity. That’s the difference. She’s not here for the hype — she’s here to build something timeless.
The Moment That Changed Everything — UK Stage, Global Energy
If you were in London or Manchester, you probably still remember it.
Modola, on stage with Diamond Platnumz, under the lights, in front of a charged-up crowd.
She stepped up. She grabbed the mic.
“My name is Modola!”
The crowd exploded.
Then — she somersaulted.
It wasn’t a gimmick. It wasn’t planned for shock value.
It was her. Bold. Electric. Fierce. And from the back of the arena to the front row, one chant echoed:
“Go hard girl! Go hard girl!”
That’s not just stage presence. That’s impact.
“NEW LIGHT” — More Than Music, It’s a Milestone
EP Drops July 31, 2025
This is the evolution.
The “New Light” EP is a six-track body of work that does more than entertain — it unpacks her journey, her mindset, and her message. Every record was built with care, purpose, and truth.
Tracklist
Masun — For those still dreaming while the world moves.
No Stress — A vibe and a boundary in one.
Oro Owo — A reflective deep-dive into loyalty and survival.
Billing — The reality check we didn’t know we needed.
Talk — The fire-starter. The root.
Kontrolla — A record for women who’ve taken their power back.
This EP is a playlist of personal growth. It’s for the broken, the bold, and the ones still figuring it out. It’s for people who need a mirror and a mantra. It’s Modola, without compromise.
Why Modola Matters — And Why We’re Telling Her Story
At JFORTMEDIA, we don’t tell just any story. We tell the ones that shift the culture. Modola’s brand is bigger than music. It’s a reflection of a new kind of African woman: soft but strong, sexy but smart, spiritual but driven, local and global.
She doesn’t perform. She transforms.
She doesn’t release music. She releases truth.
She doesn’t follow trends. She creates identity.
She’s not just building a fanbase.
She’s building a legacy that aligns with the future of African creativity.
Final Word from JFORTMEDIA
When we say “The New Light is here,” we mean it.
We see it. We feel it.
And we’re proud to help tell the story before the world catches up.
So here’s what we know for sure:
Modola is not on the way up — she’s already in the room.
Her name will ring. Her sound will stay.
Her light will reach far beyond borders.
Don’t wait till it’s trending. Tap in now.
