8 Days To Go: It's Time to Meet Aiwan!
Meet Rigour & Flow's first host, Aiwan Obinyan
There’s now just 8 days to go till we launch Rigour & Flow…!
So it feel’s like a great time to introduce you to the first of our hosts, !
For the last two decades, Aiwan has worked in the media and entertainment industry - mostly behind the scenes, amplifying voices and stories that need to be heard.
But she wasn’t always been behind the scenes. She started as an MC, unapologetic and unafraid to challenge the system. From her rapping days, Aiwan stepped even deeper into the entertainment space, mastering a full gamut of technical skills working across music, sound, TV, film, and eventually podcasting!
That led her to set up her own media production company, AiAi Studios, which has now been going strong for over eleven years!
As an Exec Producer, Aiwan’s worked with some of the biggest shows and collaborated with some of the biggest names in the industry! Channel 4, Gay Times, and Audible, to name just a few…!
Outside of work, Aiwan loves any opportunity to nerd out on anything audio-related, and constantly comes up with amazing ideas for shows (usually at 3am in the morning!).
In Tamanda’s words she’s also the ‘best date-night arranger’, a ‘professional hottie’ (....no, for real, she was actually a model for a while, but quit because she hated it!), a non-stop joker, and an all-round beautiful human!
Now, she’s going back to her roots - or her time as a ‘whipper snapper rapper’, as she likes to call it! That means stepping back in front of the mic again to bring you Rigour & Flow with her partner in crime,
!We hope you’ll enjoy what we have to offer!
