Nigerian Singer Praises YBNL Boss, Sparking Conversations on Loyalty and Influence in Music

In a surprising turn of events, Nigerian singer Ahmed Ololade, popularly known as Asake, has made headlines with his newest release, “Military”. The track, which surfaced just hours ago, features a heartfelt tribute to his former label head, Olamide, amidst a backdrop of industry drama.

The day started with Olamide trending on social media after singer Habeeb Okikiola Badmus, known as Portable, publicly accused him of using Asake to undermine him in the music industry. Portable’s accusations quickly spread across social media, sparking a wave of discussions among fans and followers.

However, Asake responded not with words but with music. In “Military”, particularly in the second verse, he gives a shout-out to Olamide, sing-rapping in Yoruba. He dismisses his critics with a nonchalant attitude, expressing his discomfort with speaking English but proudly boasting about his wealth and influence, suggesting he could drop a surprise album at any moment just because he feels like it.

The lyrics where Asake honors Olamide have captured the attention of many Nigerians, drawing comparisons between Asake and Portable. Both artists have seen their careers significantly shaped by Olamide’s mentorship and support through his label, YBNL Nation. This tribute has sparked a conversation about loyalty, gratitude, and the impact of mentorship in the music world.

Social media platforms have been abuzz with fans lauding Asake’s gesture, while others reflect on the complex dynamics of artist-label relationships in Nigeria’s vibrant music scene. This incident not only highlights Asake’s respect for Olamide but also underscores the ongoing narrative of how personal and professional ties can play out publicly in the entertainment industry.
