- Kayode Ewumi explains his journey and how he discovered his own courage to pursue his ambitions.
Whilst in his final year at Coventry University, Kayode decided to create a vine account and start making videos. After graduating from Coventry University in 2015, Kayode and his childhood friend (Tyrell Williams) bought a camera, developed a character from his vine account and decided to shoot a mockumentary.
With a grand budget of £3, they made two episodes of #HoodDocumentary, released them on CZcams, and shortly thereafter found themselves with over two million viewers. This attracted BBC Three, who commissioned #HoodDocumentary onto their platform (which is to date the highest viewed series on BBC 3 Online). Since then, Kayode has been busy appearing as a lead in the BBC’s remake of Are You Being Served? shooting White Gold (BBC 2), Crackanory (Dave) and becoming a BAFTABreakthroughBrit of 2016. Kayode is currently developing a few scripts that he can’t wait to share with those who have supported his journey so far!
This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx
Man said "your mum" on a ted talk. Only greats like this, can pull that off.
I had to weel that back 4 times 🤣🤣🥇
Can't believe I actually went university with this guy. Great to see people succeeding. He is so talented and deserves it all.
Were you the insecure lady or the confident lady?
Didi Mouradova me too I remember u as well 😏 🍑
I wish I was in the same uni as you, but I didn't even go uni.
You went to university with him when he developed that meme.
I wish your name was Chantelle
The actual courage it took to defy his parents Wow, going against the grain and then prooving everyone wrong...Beautiful
Marli Marl
"prooving" you know
Daaamn... I see a lot of ppl here bashing ppl for not knowing that hes more than the 'meme guy' 😂.
Not everyone is from ends and not everyone will know him.
For all those who dnt know him, go peep 'Hood Documentary' then obviously check out his other stuff. Shine 💯

If you want to be a leader you need to be by yourself. Getting your ideas down either in your own way-it's all inside you. Jump! Believe in what you want to do
People will always respect you for it.
1.
+Freddy Brainy Have some respect for yourself.
I actually love him 😂😂😂😂😂
What an inspiring gift he is. I don’t care about comments insulting the Americans here. He is recognized for his work and that’s all that matters! Most of all he loves God and has a relationship with Christ! You can see his beautiful spirit!
Fam, all this time I was indecisive about what occupation I should proceed in the future, because I was trying to draw myself towards the money. This has made me continue my desire for engineering and being a leader in what I do. Roll safe.
I really liked his energy and points. He conveyed a good message while being funny and captivating. He seems like an open minded guy with a great ability to learn and observe the things around him.
Nigerian parents are awesome.Kay,your story just woke me up from sleep
Chinyere Osuafor amen 😃

MBTE if you only know him for fire in the booth you’re missing out
So, here is it. COURAGE : The ability of doing what frightens people. Coooool !!!
Looks like he is a triple threat after all - funny, inspirational and Nigerian

Sara Al Hamad i cen motivate u beby
Respect to this guy! He deserves every bit of Whats coming to him💪
Yeah most Americans know him as "the meme guy" but for those of us from the UK, he's known as RS (Roll safe). Go check out his hood documentary, and his fire in the booth. That's where the meme came from. It's hilariousss
confidence is the hopeful, grateful and accepted to self and others,
courage is the ability to face the discomfort and in the highest level of it be comfort with discomfort and understand fear.
I would have never taken this brother serious until i saw this video, very nice and he is still funny BIG UP.
Think this guy is so cool, talented and humble...love him.x Wish him well in everything he does.x
this ted talks should be in the millions
RS is doing big things while you guys are just sitting watching his memes
I can't wait to see where God takes him ❤️
Love you my guy ❤👊
Loved him from HOOD DOCOUMETRY
Kayode, this is amazing! Really made me think, definitely more to you than just banter. Real man of substance. 👏🏾 👏🏾 👏🏾
Great Talk! He is so eloquent in his speech. I really enjoyed watching him tell his story.
Spend time alone. Oluwa blessings upon you Kayode
Kinda looks like Eddie Murphy
Joshua Lincoln 'was gonna say the same'
First thing I thought too! Much nicer guy that Eddie though,
If you see the 50 Cent movie Get Rich or Die Tryin then you’ll see his true doppelgänger
Yes Kayode! You continue to make us proud. Very inspiring talk and bloody hilarious. Well done!
Your mum

That was masterfully set up improv damn...
I don't get it
"You like that" 😭😂😂😂😂

Why he hasn’t been to the us yet is beyond me. He’s a little of every comedian I love. From Oliver Samuel’s to Bernie Mack. He’s brilliant
Met this guy in person and he's actually a great role model to me, I look up to this guy I really do
I am so glad I stumbled on this video. This was very inspirational. Thank you Kayode.
Amazing words, and delivery.
Last part about courage got me thinking. I really enjoyed this talk, thank you
This was amazing ! Bless up Kayode 👌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
This man is a legend
still one of my favorite TED talks
I went to Cov Uni with you! Kay this is amazing work! I’ve just watched it twice! I am so proud of you! You are smashing it! Seriously! I was on Music Composition at the same time as you and worked with Harrison, Aizah, Ayisha and Effe on ‘Thando’ (version of Woyczeck) as our final project. Yours was a work based on Long Way Down and the work of the Samaritans. Your work was shockingly touching and you wouldn’t have known this but Cov Uni was a hard time for me - I just had a lot going on. And your work was very moving and helpful! Thank you Kay! And the work you have done since has been amazing! You are a beast! You were always kind and honest! And I am very happy to see you are smashing it!!!😁👏
