OLAMIDE
Musician
(Founder, YBNL)
Crowning Olamide the King of street music is not debatable. Olamide is one of the most influential artistes of the decade. Since his breakout single “Eni Duro” in 2010, the super star has released a plethora of records and his consistency cannot be over emphasized.
Owning one of the most successful record labels in Nigeria YBNL, Olamide has served as a launchpad for the career of artistes like Lil Kesh, Adekunle Gold, Chinko Ekun, and Fireboy DML who have become excellent markers for genre evolution.
The success of his Olamide Live In Concert (OLIC) since he started in 2014 has been a blueprint for his peers in the industry who have also now begun to hold end of year concerts for their fans. Olamide’s sound and artistry has inspired the new wave street newbies. The likes of Naira Marley, Zlatan, Lil frosh and the likes fall under this category.
