Chief Commander Ebenezer Obey

Ebenezer Remilekun Aremu Olasupo Obey-Fabiyi

Nigeria, 1942

Obey se unió a su primera banda profesional, los Fatai Rolling Dollars en 1958. En 1963 había formado su propio grupo (International Brothers). En 1971 cambió el nombre a su orquesta (Inter-Reformers Band) y a su estilo (Miliki) en una ingeniosa jugada de marketing, cuando todo seguía siendo lo mismo.

Obey llama a su personal estilo Miliki (disfrute), elaborándolo con elementos occidentales como guitarras múltiples y una guitarra hawaina solista, añadiéndolos al fundamento rítmico tradicional. Sus canciones tienden a reflejar una fuerte creencia cristiana y de problemas comunes (con frecuencia económicos) de cada día de la vida.

En los años 1970, Obey rivalizaba con King Sunny Ade en la salida de álbumes y ventas. Los seguidores del juju estaban divididos en dos bandos: los que seguían a Ade y los partidarios de la dulzura de la voz de Obey y la naturaleza filosófica de sus letras.
De religión cristiana desde pequeño (mientras que Sunny Ade refleja su creencia en la religión tradicional Yoruba). predicó los valores ortodoxos del amor, la familia y la paz en el hogar.

Disfrutó de su primer éxito con "Omo Lami" en 1965, seguido de un éxito aún mayor al año siguiente con "Olo Mi Gbo Temi".
