Greatman Ademola Takit, born on March 11, 1992, in Surulere, Lagos State, is a standout voice in Nigeria’s gospel music landscape. Known for his bold fusion of Afrobeats, hip-hop, Afropop, and contemporary worship, he brings a refreshing energy to faith-based music.
Raised in Abuja within a deeply spiritual home—his father a pastor and his mother a church minister—Greatman’s early exposure to both ministry and music helped shape his unique sound. He attended Government Science Secondary School, Pyakasa, and later studied at the Federal University of Technology, Minna, where his passion for music blossomed.
His official music journey began in 2011 with the release of “Ain’t Nobody.” However, it was his 2016 project Wildfire that earned him broader recognition, revealing his knack for combining raw lyrical expression with compelling beats. After parting ways with gospel group The Gratitude in 2020, Greatman embraced a solo path that allowed his artistry to fully flourish.
His catalog includes standout projects like Energy (Afropop Gospel Vol. 1) (2021), Worship SZN (2024), and Ghetto Gospel (2024)—each one pushing the boundaries of what gospel music can sound like. His hit tracks such as “Look What You’ve Done,” “Commando,” “Melody,” and “Holy Spirit” have resonated with a wide audience, offering both groove and grace.
Greatman Takit has worked alongside notable artists like Moses Bliss, TY Bello, Tim Godfrey, and Folabi Nuel, lending his voice to collaborative tracks including “Daddy Wey Dey Pamper (Gbedu Version),” “Fire Fire,” and “Glory.”
With a distinctive style that marries rich African rhythms and spiritual truth, Greatman Takit continues to inspire a new generation—proving that gospel music can be both deeply worshipful and culturally relevant.
