Early Life & Education
Morihanfen Oluwaseun Oluwabamidele, known professionally as Sean Tizzle, was born on December 15, 1989, in Ikeja, Lagos State, Nigeria, which makes his zodiac sign Sagittarius.
He is Yoruba, with origins in Ilaje, Ondo State, and was raised in a Christian household.
His parents, Mr. and Mrs. Oluwabamidele, raised him alongside four siblings, as he is the fourth of five children. Although he was born in Ikeja, he grew up in Ikorodu, and a gospel-singing uncle introduced him to music.
He began his education at Community Grammar School in Majidun, where he earned his First School Leaving Certificate, before moving on to Command Secondary School in Ibadan.
He later studied theatre arts at the University of Ibadan. During this period, he was a rapping member of the 3-Way Band, an amateur group, which marked the start of his path into music.
Career
Sean Tizzle began his career as a rapper with the 3-Way Band before moving into singing and songwriting. He rose to stardom in 2013 with the single “Sho Lee” and worked with Unlimited L.A. on its music video. Produced by D’Tunes, the song topped the charts in only two months.
At the 2013 Headies, he won Next Rated, while D’Tunes took Producer of the Year, and he also won International Act of the Year at the African Social Awards. In 2014, he added Best New Musician of the Year at the Caribbean African American Nations Award, Next Rated Artiste at the Nigeria Media Award and Best New Music Video for “Sho Lee” at the Nigerian Music Video Awards.
His momentum carried into 2014 with commercial deals and his debut album. MTN Nigeria signed him to a ₦20 million (approximately $120,000) endorsement deal, and he became a Bacardi Breezer ambassador in August 2014. His debut album, The Journey, produced radio favourites including “Perfect Gentleman” and “Loke Loke” featuring 9ice.
In contrast, “Igi Orombo” featuring Tiwa Savage and the “Kilogbe” remix with Olamide and Reminisce widened his reach. He also took on supporting acting roles in the films Dazzling Mirage (2014) and Astray (2015).
He toured the UK in 2014, 2015 and 2016, covering 6, 7 and 10 cities respectively, and performed at events including Felabration and the Coko Bar Music Festival in London. His international collaborations include “Hit and Run” with Canadian rapper Tory Lanez, produced by Dr Frabz, and a “Kpro Kpro” remix with Davido in 2018. He also featured on “Kpata Kpata” (2016) and worked with Daxmpire on “Latin Lover”.
He released the Moving Forward EP in 2017, followed by Loud Beach Party (2018) and The Sean Tizzle Experience (2019), before the Where You Been EP arrived in 2021.
After a noticeable break from the spotlight, he returned with the album Dues in 2023. The project has no features, a choice he made on purpose, and it closes with “Paid My Dues”. He is currently signed to Wind Vane Music.
