He said, “Olamide was 13 years old when I met him. He came to my studio with a friend who wanted to feature him on a song. His friend was not good musically. Olamide was quiet and unassuming. I gave him a beat, and he did 16 bars that changed everything. Olamide became more like a son to me.
“When he was about to leave my record label, we sat down to discuss it. It was painful to me. It wasn’t the pain of not wanting him to progress; it was the pain of seeing someone you love leave. I cried.
“I said, ‘Olamide, you should’ve waited o!’ He said, ‘Bros, I want to do something, and I’m sure, by your code, we might not be able to do some of them.’ We didn’t have a fight. I gave him my full blessings.”

You did well ID Cabasa.
ReplyDeleteAs it should be 👍
ReplyDeleteNice one ID, you did a good job with 9ice too in those days, churning out hit after hit.
I love Don Jazzy for this reason. All his signees that left, did so peacefully. It was recently that I knew Korede Bello had left too. We will not hear pim. He must be a nice boss.
Yes Asia, Don Jazzy is good. Non of his former signees has any bad thing to say about him. They even come together to make music after leaving
DeleteThe way it should be. Baddo is super talented.
