This week on Black Genius, we’re excited to introduce you to Oluwaseye Olusa! Oluwaseye is a Hip Hop and Afrobeats visual documentarian and celebrity photographer, who has captured some of the most important moments in Black cultural production over the last 20 years.
While working on set with Hype Williams, Def Jam and others on some of the most iconic music videos in Hip Hop history, he found a love for photography that enabled him to capture the power, essence and beauty of Black subjects in the music industry and creative world.
He’s photographed Jay Z, Common, Yvonne Orji, Jidenna and every last one of your faves; as well as on visual campaigns for Nike, Adidas, and And One.
Through his consistent documentation of African Diaspora events, artists and cultural producers over the last 20 years, he’s amassed the most notable intersectional collection of Black entertainment photography.
