Believe it or not, many of your favourite Nigerian artistes owe their introduction into the very cut throat music industry to Olamide. The last one might shock you.
1. Asake
Olamide jumped on Asake’s Omo Ope in 2022, shortly before signing him to his label, YBNL. The rest as they say, is history.
Still a student in Lasu (Lagos state university) and chasing a music career, Bella Shmurda’s life changed all of a sudden when Baddo graced him with a verse on his street anthem “Vision 2020”.
Bella Shmurda who is popularly known as OLAMIDE’S first SON is an AFRO beat artist who has been doing music from a very early stage in life,but came into limelight sometime around December 2018 after a successful release of his debut HIT single titled VISION2020.
3. Ycee
Ycee was a buzzing rapper in the music scene but it wasn’t until Olamide jumped on the remix of his song “Jagaban” that everyone knew he was a force to be reckoned with.
Never in anyone’s wildest dreams did they think Portable would have a highly ranked song on the charts, at least that was before Olamide dropped an iconic verse to Portable chaotic street banger “Zazoo Zeh”.

5. T.I Blaze
T.I Blaze’s “Sometimes” was already being accepted in the streets before Baddo jumped on the song and made it a certified banger on arrival.
Without a doubt, Badboytimz was already making a name for himself with his song “MJ” and a remix featuring Mayorkun. But it took his very catchy hook on Olamide’s “Loading” to solidify his name in the industry.

7. Zlatan
A little while before the Zanku crooner hooked the entire nation with his dance moves and his lamba, Olamide actually gave him a comfortable sitting in the industry with their 2017 street banger “My Body”.
Coded Records Entertainment recording artist, Zlatan who can also be referred to as Zlatan Ibile is here with this masterpiece work of art video for his track titled “My Body” Zlatan did a good one here by calling on Olamide to put his magic on this track.
