We are a podcast company launched to bless the world with the stories African's tell.
The Oriki, after which were named, is the oral praise poetry found amongst the Yoruba of West Africa and other communities throughout much of Africa. These invocations which have been passed down from generations, praise and describe the innate qualities of a particular man, clan, animal, place or god, and inherently hold the ethos of how Africans have told their stories throughout the ages.
Enjoy Listening.
