[color=green]Olamide is set to release his sixth solo studio album in
December….[/color]
[b]The Nigerian rapper who has released released a studio album
every year since his debut in 2011, is working on maintaining
his figures and keeping his momentum going, by dropping a
studio album in 2016.
The new album will be released in December, as songs on the
album have already been recorded. It will feature hit song
‘Who you epp’, along with other singles. No official title,
artwork, and tracklist has been released.
This will be Olamide’s 7 album. In 2011, he launched his career
with “Rapsodi”, and went further to release a string of albums
every year including “YBNL” (2012), “Baddest Guy Ever
Liveth” (2013), “Street OT” (2014), “2 Kings” (joint album with
Phyno, 2015), and “Eyan Mayweather” (2015).
2016 has been a big year for the rapper. Under his leadership
and guidance, his record label, YBNL, has released an album
(“YAGI”) for rapper Lil Kesh, who have subsequently left the
company, to found his personal imprint.
It is currently still promoting Adekunle Gold’s “Gold” album. He
has also began work on another of his signed rappers, Chinko
Ekun, who is releasing singles.
Olamide recently said he will never pay money to have an
international collaboration.
Speaking with HipTV, the ‘Shakiti bobo’ rapper made it quite
clear that he won’t go down the route of parting away with
cash for an international collaboration.
The rapper is of the belief that if he puts in the right amount of
work, together with the grace of God, his music will speak for
him and take him so far, giving him the deserved international
recognition.
He made reference to Fela Kuti who didn’t have to do any
international collaboration to penetrate the international market.
“Fela no do any international collaboration before they
recognise Fela for international market,” the rapper said.
The ‘baddo’ rapper attributes the street as what makes him tick
as an artist “We rep the streets and the street is the majority”,[/b]
