The Glorious Twins, Taiwo and Kehinde Ekundayo, are Nigerian twin sisters and gospel music artists known for their rich vocal harmonies, uplifting songs, and growing influence in the Christian music scene in Nigeria and beyond. Born into a musically inclined family, they began singing together around age five and gained early recognition for their natural ability to harmonize, a dynamic often attributed to the spiritual and emotional bond shared between twins.
As of 2026, Taiwo and Kehinde are 17 years old, having first entered the professional music scene around age 13 during the COVID‑19 lockdown, a period that became a turning point in their career and online presence. Their emergence during this time helped their music spread widely through social media, livestreams, and digital platforms.
Musical Style & Rise to Recognition
The Glorious Twins’ music blends gospel inspiration with melodic appeal, featuring both Yoruba and English elements that resonate with local and international audiences. They are perhaps best known for their 2011 album T’ogo Bade (When Glory Comes), which includes songs such as “T’ogo Bade,” “Funmilagbara,” “Glorious Praise,” “Oyela,” and “Igbiyanju.” These tracks showcase their ability to create powerful praise music that is spiritually uplifting and musically engaging.
In 2024, they released the album Jubilant Praise, featuring songs such as “Alade Mimo,” “Worthy,” “Ma Je N Sogo Danu,” and “Omo Oba Ni Mi,” further expanding their reach with millions of streams and growing listener engagement. In 2025, they continued with releases like “God of Our Forefathers” (featuring Officialdmajor) and the high life gospel single “Tete Jewo” (featuring BBO), demonstrating their evolving sound and willingness to collaborate with other artists across gospel and urban influences.
Online Presence & Performances
The twins command a strong digital presence that has helped them build a devoted community of listeners. Their live performances, often shared by their mother on social platforms, have drawn significant interaction, demonstrating their ability to connect authentically with fans and viewers through worship, praise, and heartfelt expression. They’ve also collaborated with other gospel artists in live ministrations, broadening their visibility and reinforcing their standing as dynamic young talents within the gospel genre.
Family Influence & Personal Impact
Growing up in a household where both parents were musically inclined, Taiwo and Kehinde were naturally exposed to music from an early age. Their professional breakthrough, however, didn’t just elevate their artistic identity, it transformed their family’s circumstances. Their mother, Tobiloba Ekundayo, has publicly credited the twins with significantly improving the family’s financial stability, noting that their music has become a primary source of income and opened doors to consistent performance opportunities and broader recognition. Their father, also a musician, supports their creative path and contributes to the family’s artistic foundation, shaping a home environment focused on faith, music, and purpose.
Vision, Influence & Future Direction
Despite their young age, Taiwo and Kehinde carry a mature perspective toward ministry through music. They are deeply motivated by faith, sibling synergy, and a desire to inspire others. Through worship, praise, collaboration, and community engagement, their goal remains to minister to hearts, uplift listeners spiritually, and build a sustainable legacy in gospel music. With a growing catalogue of songs, increasing collaborations, and an expanding digital footprint, The Glorious Twins are poised for continued growth, reaching further audiences and creating music that celebrates both praise and purpose.
