Lolade Olayokun is the second to last of five children in her family. She is a first generation Nigerian American from her parents Kamorudeen and Abiola Olayokun. As fate would have it, the pressure for her to become a doctor or a lawyer had faded away by the time her parents were ready to raise her because they realized there is more to life than the professions that promises security.
 
Through her journey as a speaker, Lolade embraced her skill to entertain while on the mic, from there MC Lolahstic was born. Having a versatile resume to both tell stories and entertain; has allowed Lolade to speak at Columbia University, host Afrochella in Accra Ghana, Trapkaraoke with OKAYAFRICA, featured in THRILLEST Ramadan special and even hosted SHE.E.O in Lagos Nigeria, along with many other events. In the spring and Fall semesters, Lolade curates the MC Lolahstic College Tour, where she entertains students at their annual fashion shows and moderates’ professional development panels around the country.
 
When Lolade is passionate about something, she goes the extra mile to spread the good word with those within her community. It is her pride and joy to push the African culture forward while placing smiles on people’s faces. These milestones have provided unimaginable spaces for her to be a creative who produces humor driven news. Lolade is a motor mouth junkie that will not stop until she has fulfilled her level of success and self-fulfillment.
