Àrẹ̀mọ Gemini

Yusuf Àlàbí Balógun, going by the stage name ‘Àrẹ̀mọ Gemini’ is an experimental performance poet, with a core focus in Yorùbá arts and culture. Recipient of Horn of Afroclassical Merit Award for excellence in the propagation of arts and culture (2018), his art is guided by so many drives, one of which is to sell out O² Arena, London for Yorùbá oral arts.

Recognised as the First Runner Up of the Grooming Talent Hunt 2020, his craft have received successful acceptance and validation from media houses within Nigeria and outside the shore, including BBC Yorùbá and The Folio Media (Nigerian exclusive affiliate to CNN).

Àrẹ̀mọ Gemini is a self published author of a best-selling Yorùbá novel, Ṣẹ̀gílọlá Arómirẹ́ Ògìdán and he has so many works to his credits, including a collaboration with South African artiste – Willemien Rust (Beginnes & Eindes) and Nigerian musical artiste, Temmie Ovwasa (Space Fuji).
