Akinyele Adams (born April 23, 1971), better known by the mononym Akinyele, is an American rapper known for his sexually explicit lyrics, including his 1996 song "Put It in Your Mouth".[2] He appeared on "Live at the Barbeque" off of Main Source's 1991 album Breaking Atoms.[3] His first album, Vagina Diner, was released in 1993.[4] In 2001, he released Anakonda.[4]

In 2010, Akinyele retired from the rap circuit. In 2016, he opened V-Live, a Miami Beach club. It garnered controversy for its similarities to strip clubs, which are prohibited in Miami Beach, and for having overly loud music that disturbed local residents. Due to these and other issues, V-Live was forced to close down in 2019.[5]

Akinyele is of Panamanian and Costa Rican descent.[6]
