Joey Akan

Welcome!  I’m Joey Akan — award-winning journalist and culture commentator. For years I’ve been asking questions, chasing stories, and trying to understand what really makes people tick. Because the most interesting thing about any person is how they think, what they believe, and what shaped them.

This channel is home to honest, unhurried, long-form conversations with creatives, thinkers, builders, and storytellers who are living intentionally and have something real to say. 

The Joey Akan Experience — full episodes drop here featuring guest like Layi Wasabi, Tunde Onakoya, Taaoma and more.

The full archive of Afrobeats Intelligence interviews is here with conversations — from Don Jazzy to Joeboy & more. For the latest Afrobeats Intelligence episodes, head over to YouTube.com/@okayafrica

If you’re genuinely curious about people — how they think, how they build, and how they see the world — then you’re in the right place.
