Discover the groundbreaking influence of Anike, formerly known as Wande, a pioneer in Christian music and the first Christian female rapper with major commercial success. Formerly known as Wande, she has embraced a new chapter, dedicating her life to glorifying Yahweh and letting go of her birth names "Mutiat" and "Yewande" that reflected Muslim practices & African spirituality roots.

Anike, the first female Christian rapper to tour with icons like Lecrae and collaborate with artists like TobyMac, has a unique blend of hip-hop, R&B, and pop. She was the first female artist signed to Reach Records and has been featured on GRAMMY-nominated projects and Billboard's #1 album "The Mav Way." Influential figures like Michelle Obama and Kirk Franklin have recognized her contributions on their playlists as well.

Anike's versatility extends to appearances in ESPN and Apple commercials, performances at the Essence Festival, and hosting "Girl Talk" on TBNx, focusing on women's spiritual empowerment. Her engaging comedic content and life talks, like "Hallelujah Roll Call," have amassed millions of views. Anike—a visionary with millions of streams on Spotify alone—continuing to shape how Christians engage with culture.

In summer 2024, Anike changed her legal and artist name from Wande, noting "This change is deeply meaningful to me, reflecting a departure from my old legal names, Mutiat and Yewande, which carried meaning not aligned with my faith such as reincarnation, and devotion to other gods. The name Anike means "someone you cherish, care for, love, and don’t take for granted." It serves as a reminder of my inherent worth, cherished by my Creator, and this affirmation is something I wish to echo through my music.”

Throughout his life, Tedashii has been vocal about the various trials and tribulations he's endured, from losing his 1-year-old son, Chase, to more recently, the serious fall he took backstage on the We Are Unashamed Tour. He has always felt attacked by the enemy in a spiritual and literal way, but throughout that journey, he has learned to survive. The surprising combo release of Christmas songs at the end of 2023 showcased his amazing vocals and the diverse new styles we can look forward to in 2024. Anticipation is high for the release of his upcoming EP, where the message will continue to be a beacon of hope for those going through tough times.
