Olamide has done more for the Nigerian music industry than your top 3 artistes – Shade Ladipo
Media personality, Shade Ladipo has opined that singer Olamide has done more for the Nigerian music industry than your top 3 artistes.
She disclosed this via her Instagram page on Saturday evening.
Shade Ladipo wrote:
“I wonder if we give Olamide enough kudos for his impact in the industry. Since he attained stardom he has probably done more than any of your top 3 artistes (combined). He deserves a lot of praise for his contribution.”
The Daily Page recalls that singer Asake had revealed how Olamide helped him.
He said, “I was not at home. Something happened between me and my guys. I left the house and was very sad. On the third day, I came back to the house. My guy called me saying Baddo had jumped on my song,” Asake said.
“I didn’t even think Olamide was going to sign me. It occurred to me that 2022 was sealed [as a stellar career year for me] with the collaboration alone. A week after I dropped the song, Olamide called, asking that we meet.
“I tried out multiple outfits looking for something he would like to see on me. This was because Olamide was someone I respected. Before he signed me, I’d been begging Baddo since 2020 to do so.
“I got to his head and he asked if I would like to join YBNL. I said I’m ready but he asked me to go look for a lawyer and think about it. I asked him to sign me immediately. I didn’t need a lawyer because I so much loved the family.”
Asake, born Ahmed Ololade, had earlier in February released a critically acclaimed eponymous four-track EP.
He ventured into music at a young age. He also showcased his talent through freestyle videos on social media.
His big break came with the release of his hit ‘Lady’ which became popular among music lovers and celebrities.
Olamide announced the signing of Asake in February 2022.
David Adeleke, the Afrobeats performer known as Davido, said he is Igbo by blood. The singer shot back at someone who warned him about being friendly with Igbo people, saying he could worry about betrayal as a Yoruba man.
The X user, Yakbel, said: “Davido just dey carry Ibo full body, until when dem betray am before e rest. Yoruba boy dey frolick with Ibos in 2025, they want your head and everything you have to belong to them. You can never satisfy Ibos. Ibos are not people you surround yourself with as a Yoruba man.”
Davido overlooked the criticism and just replied:
“Lol. My ancestors are from the Igbo people.”
Nigerian online streamer, Habeeb Hamzat popularly known as Peller has revealed he convinced his girlfriend, Jarvis, to turn down a ₦3 billion offer from Netflix since it required her to kiss someone during the show.
Peller mentioned this during a livestream with Peter Okoye from P-Square.
Peller said, “Netflix offered 3 billion Naira my girlfriend, Jarvis to do a kissing scene, but I turned it down.”
Peter asked, “Do you mean N3 million or N3 billion?”
Peller replied, “N3 billion! I know you might not believe me, but I have the record of the video call. I warned them never to contemplate such ever again. I love my baby. I don’t joke with my baby. She is my life.”
Peter added, “Always look out for her.”
