Born Oloruntobi M Olushola, ESHIN Teeblinks is an artist whose work is shaped by personal resilience. He creates a dynamic blend of Afro Hip Hop and Afrobeat, connecting the pulse of African rhythms with the cadence of rap and modern storytelling.

Through motivational lyrics and bold, melodious arrangements, you can hear the heartbeat of someone who has overcome challenges and now wants to empower others.

As a Nigerian artist based in Scotland, ESHIN brings a unique cross-cultural perspective to his work that naturally bridges continents. He is also a motivational speaker with “The Unstoppable Club,” and that mission finds its way into his music. His songs echo the same themes of perseverance and purpose that he shares in his speeches.
His newest project, “The BEST of ME,” is a direct reflection of who he is. The album chronicles what he has been through, his love for music, and his desire to inspire people with his talent. It also serves as a thank you to the fans who have supported him along the way.
Across 16 tracks, ESHIN showcases his versatility and vision. Each song feels like an anthem, with every word carrying a spark.
The album opens with “ESHIN LOMO,” a vibrant, upbeat Afrobeats track full of catchy melodies and infectious, playful energy. It’s a celebratory song that encourages confidence and living life to the fullest. The polished production, with its pulsating beats and danceable groove, makes it a perfect fit for any African pop playlist. The track truly captures the fun, extravagant spirit that Africans are known for.
“BOUNCE (So Wa Pa)” takes an interesting turn, revealing ESHIN’s more versatile side. It’s a trap-infused banger that feels like the beat of the moment. This is the kind of song you turn up loud with the windows down.
With “MY CHANCE” and “STEP CORRECT,” ESHIN dives into the energy of Amapiano. These vibrant tracks fuse Afrobeats with the South African sound, full of swagger and streetwise confidence. “MY CHANCE” is particularly captivating and inspirational, with its memorable, chant-like flows.
From its first moments, “STEP CORRECT” rides an infectious log drum pattern, a signature of Amapiano. ESHIN puts his own Nigerian street-pop flair on it, making the track feel both fresh and familiar. His vocals shift between sing-rap cadences and anthemic, call-and-response hooks. Featuring Lato d Hype Guru and Tutu, the jam is smooth, celebratory, and endlessly replayable. The artists work together seamlessly, delivering a track that works in the clubs and proves the power of African music on the global stage.
“REPPING” is a straight-up hip-hop anthem, pulsing with raw determination and grit. ESHIN’s intensity is at its peak here. Each verse is packed with bravado and a survival mentality. The beat is dark and aggressive, driven by pounding 808s and menacing synths, which is the perfect backdrop for his relentless bars and clever wordplay.
There is a lot to explore in “The BEST of ME.” ESHIN is open and honest, sharing the core of his life. The project represents his journey through many trials, his spiritual beliefs, and the never-say-die attitude that defines him.
