Kunle Oluleye marks Gospel milestone as Concert LOUD turns 20

Renowned gospel minister and worship leader, Kunle Oluleye, popularly known as “Jesus Pikin,” is set to celebrate a major milestone in his music and ministry journey as preparations intensify for the 20th edition of his annual worship concert, Concert LOUD, scheduled for November 22, 2026.

Born into a family of seven, Oluleye’s spiritual journey began in earnest after he gave his life to Christ in 1987—an experience he describes as transformative and foundational to his calling in gospel music. Since then, he has remained actively involved in church ministry, serving as a choir member and steadily building a reputation as a passionate worshipper.

His music career officially took off in 2000 with the release of his debut album, Jesus Pikin, a project that introduced him to gospel audiences and inspired the stage name by which he is now widely known.

Following the success of his debut, Oluleye released another album, Choice, and has since built an impressive catalogue of spirit-filled songs, including popular singles such as KOYIPADA, ORE OFE, PRAISE ALOUD, ANU, and ALL MY LIFE, among others.

Driven by a deep passion for worship and thanksgiving, he launched Concert LOUD in November 2007 as a personal celebration to honour God on the occasion of his birthday and wedding anniversary. What began as a modest praise gathering has grown into a widely anticipated annual gospel event, attracting worshippers and gospel music lovers from across the country.

Over the years, Concert LOUD has featured several prominent Nigerian gospel artists and has continued to expand in both scale and spiritual impact, earning recognition as a significant platform for worship and ministry.

With the landmark 20th edition on the horizon, expectations are high among attendees and supporters, many of whom believe this year’s event will surpass previous editions in both attendance and spiritual significance.

Speaking on his journey and ministry vision, Oluleye reaffirmed his commitment to advancing in worship and using his platform to inspire lives. According to him, his ultimate priority remains “touching the heart of God,” while also ensuring that lives are transformed and this generation is blessed through his ministry.

As anticipation builds for the November event, many within the gospel music community are looking forward to another powerful expression of worship from an artist whose ministry has remained steadfast for nearly three decades.
