The secret of success is to be ready when your opportunity comes. - Benjamin Disraeli,

here are a collection of sounds I made on my laptop :) enjoy

Formerly known as AkinG Kalld Pedro, Akinola Pedro was born in Washington D.C. Being of West African and Afro-Brazilian descent, he was raised by Nigerian parents on the outskirts of the nation’s capital. In 2019, he released his demo album, SURREALISM, and later that year, found himself amongst 10 other emerging artists that won the inaugural 2Kbeats Contest created by Steve Stoute’s UnitedMasters. Pedro’s breakout single, Traffic.jam {BARGAIN} was hand-picked by Kevin Durant and Stoute himself for NBA 2K20 Soundtrack.

​

In 2020, during the COVID-19 pandemic, Pedro released his single Fancy; the single featured the R&B act, Alex Vaughn, off his 2021 debut album, Children of Immigrants!. The album also boasted features from Innanet James, Lord Afrixana, and his single "INTERNACIONAL! (Plan B)” which earned him a placement on NBA 2K21 Next Gen Soundtrack, marking Pedro with back-to-back placements with 2KSports. After an artist name change, Akinola released his 3rd EP titled Tatooine: the world that never was in 2022, and in the same year, created the genre-fusing musical band, “The Genre That Never Was”, while also securing a brand ambassador for the Oregon clothing company, Pendleton Woolen Mills. In 2025, Pedro released his sophomore album, POMEGRANATE?. The album’s tracks were each released in the span of 10 days as a countdown leading up to its release date on February 10th
