It can be recalled that Ayomide, in the summer of 2024, wrote what he called his official first global poem, titled “Who is Ayomide D’Great?” that later premiered in Liverpool. The Spotlight poem gained much attention across London, Manchester, Birmingham, and Sheffield cities of the United Kingdom. His creative consistency will later earn him a Poetry Award in London later in the winter of 2025.


Ayomide is known for his modern-day poetry that addresses societal issues, real-life situations, culture, and community trends, particularly those relevant to the African and Nigerian experience. He has written several poetry collections, with his work often featured in libraries and at events, including a "Poetry Corner" in Manchester libraries. Furthermore, he was a supporting headliner at the UK’s first Poetry Expo held in Liverpool, United Kingdom. Furthermore, he is regarded as a “Spotlight Poetry Showman” at Utopia Theatre  a Sheffield-based art hub that celebrates creativity. He is a Postgraduate of the University of Salford, Greater Manchester, United Kingdom, where he earned a Master’s degree in Creative Writing, Innovation and Experiment.


The show remains a phenomenal experience for many who attended, it has been described as an amazing time that was had, each and every performing artist brought their A-games to the arena that has left a lasting impression on what Poetry means in Liverpool.


With exceptionally talented artists who graced the event, Late Notes records a memorable debut with Ayomide D’Great as its Headliner. The audience were left astonished by the mesmerising performance by Ayomide; with Spotlight poems about self, home, love, global unity, peace and harmony. Later that night, Merseyside-based musical band Finite Experience performed alongside poets by random selection from a pick in the hat hosted by Lu as an extended part of the Event.


Late Notes in particular with The Kazimier Garden applauded the exceptional global talent of Ayomide which is a promising leading voice in the UK creative scene and potentially other parts of the world.


The UK Creative Space looks forward to having more of this initiative that empowers and allows young talented emerging promising Global Talent leaders such as Ayomide D’Great to express their gift and abilities for the betterment of the British community and the world at large.
