She attended the University of Lagos, and graduated with a degree in Economics. After graduation, she changed track and ventured into journalism shortly, before she later developed interest in photography, and started a career as a photographer.

Ty Bello ventured into the Nigerian gospel music scene through the group “KUSH”.
This was a music group she co-created with her friends Lara George, Dapo Torimiro, and Emem Ema (Rapper), who were all members of the Campus Fellowship choir in the University of Lagos.
KUSH was short for Kinetically Ushering Salvation into Hearts and Homes.

This group quickly gained fame back in the 2000s with the help of their hit “Let’s Live Together”, which was part of the one and only album the group was able to release “Experience Album” before it closed down. It was said that the group grew apart due to financial uncertainties, and individual careers.
Today, all members of the group are doing fine individually. All thanks to the wonderful foundation set by this group.
