After initiating a dance group called Xtreme dancers while in the University and featuring in music videos like D’banj's Why Me and Same Ni by Dj Zeez, Dotun came to wider importance as a TV and radio personality, hosting shows and concerts
Oladotun started his career in broadcasting in 2004 as an intern with Cool FM where he served for about five years before he began to host radio shows. He has since hosted numerous shows on Cool FM as well as on TV
He is the first child of a nuclear family of three children. He attended Kemeesther Nursery and Primary school in Surulere, Lagos, and then to the Mayflower School, Ikenne, Ogun State. He then proceeded to the Lagos State University earning a Bachelor of Arts degree in Mass Communication (with a specialty in Advertising and Public Relations).
He became popular on campus as a result. Shortly after school, he joined (now P-Square's official choreographer), Nonso Asobe's (a.k.a. Don Flexxx) dance group Ignite and performed in many events. Then in 2006, he featured on popular African act, D’banj's smashing hit, Why Me video as a dancer, and on DJ Zeez's, Same Ni video. His dancing career was steady-rising towards a peak when busy radio schedules among other activities choked out the time he made out for professional dancing
Oladotun was set on his way to continue as a professional dancer when his University lecturer Mr. Nzeribe thought his spontaneity and wittiness is a holy grail in broadcasting, and so offered him options of internship with three top radio stations at the time. Dotun chooses Cool FM and hasn't looked back since.
DO2TUN is the Chief Executive Officer of a record label, Eclectic Entertainment, which has on its books, Nigerian music star, Pepenazi. He is a social influencer who handles social media and creates content for the Bank of Industry. He is also the creative director for Ile Ila and Angeli Stores. Oladotun has done social media activations for various brands such as Guinness, Coca-Cola, Martell, Castle Lite, and a lot more.
Dotun hails from Odigbo in Ondo State. He is the firstborn and has two siblings, one of whom is a Nigerian Musical act, Pepenazi. Dotun is married to the sister of d'banj and has two daughters.
May you receive the greatest of joys and everlasting bliss.
