Olamide had a lot riding on him and he set out to prove himself after parting ways with ID Cabasa's Coded Tunez, he set up his label he calls Yahoo Boy No Laptop (YBNL), and under the imprint, he released an album of the same name on November 12, 2022. And the rest, as they say, is history.
The album showcased his rap credentials as he delivered timeless rap records such as the swaggering 'Voice of the Street', 'Ilefo Illuminati', and 'Emotional Blackmail' feat Kida Kudz. Olamide displayed his penmanship and ability to convey his thoughts smoothly and relatably while effortlessly switching between Yoruba, English, and Pidgin.
While he gained mainstream attention and some level of success with his debut album, 'YBNL' was his ascension into superstar status that earned him a cult followership that will ride for him come rain or shine. The album also set him on the path of becoming Afrobeats' most reliable hitmaker a status he shares with perhaps only Davido.
3. Serious investors will remain sceptical as a result of unpalatable news such as this. If a record label is spending as much as N30 Million Naira ($110,000) to build an artist, how feasible is making profit, if a two-year-and-one-album arrangement is what they agreed on?
common, this is Olamide, a one-time street lord. This album has a slim chance of taking its place in the legendary or classic list of Nigerian albums. Olamide relied heavily on Amapiano. Remove that genre from this album, you find a watered-down project. The number of tracks and the time frame are kept short, this is a smart move.
Nigerian rapper, Olamide, scarcely needs any introduction. He is one of Nigeria's most successful rappers. He has also given others a helping hand. In the last five years, he has been in a semi-retirement stage\u2014, just like his mentor Jay-Z\u2014 while helping Fireboy and Asake navigate the industry. After months of anticipation, his new album, possibly, the much-fantasized parting gift, Unruly has been released. Truly, it's unruly. The release date was quite unusual. Wednesday, August 9, 2023. That's not the unofficial date of album release in the world. Artists hardly release an album on that day of the week.
Olamide\u2019s, (also called King Baddoo) album releases have always been a moment the fans anticipate. I still remember where I was, and how he felt when Olamide released his last two projects, Carpe Diem and UY Scuti. I was unaware of the release date of Unruly, not until I woke up four hours into August 9, 2023, and my inbox was filled with messages from Olamide\u2019s fans.
2022 was a mild year for Olamide. His two solo singles \u201CHate Me,\u201D and \u201CWe Outside,\u201D failed to boost his brand. This year, things seem to change for the better as two singles \u201CTrumpet,\u201D and \u201CNew Religion,\u201D made some waves in the music space. The songs became the torch bearer for the new album. A brilliant teaser for what to expect in Unruly, also, the timing between these singles was right.
Olamide featured just five artists on this album. The other ten tracks are standalone. Ezkeez and Magicstics, Asake\u2019s longtime producers, worked on the majority of the songs. With over a decade in the music industry, Olamide attempted to satisfy diverse demographics with this album. There is the Gen Z generation, there\u2019s also Olamide's early fans, as well as, the people in their 50s and 60s who are familiar with some of his songs. Simply put, there were many mouths to feed with this album. It's always hard to satisfy different fans, yet, Olamide made some brilliant attempts.
\u201CCelebrate,\u201D which kicks off the album, takes the fans through some of Olamide\u2019s musical journey. It's a song for a victory lap, the type you sing after a major accomplishment. Olamide has nothing to prove. For him, the accomplishment he has made is enough, and he's thankful to the highest for this. The intro of \u201CJinja,\u201D taps from \u201CRock,\u201D off UY Scuti's album. The Amapiano elements in the track brighten the song. Olamide\u2019s flow in the song takes a cue from the Galala music genre. On \u201CProblem,\u201D Olamide finds it hard to be the motivational speaker he aspires to be. He hardly stays on topic. He allows the log drum to dance around the song.
Olamide has claimed to be from the streets. He makes music for that demography, as well as the elite. Some songs on this album are created for the street. It shows in the lyric compositions, choice of beat, flow, etc. The street emblems are written all over these tracks. For example, a track like \u201CGaza,\u201D is for the street. The lyrics are filthy and sound like a freestyle. Olamide returns to this template on \u201CDoom,\u201D only this time around, with the production slowed down. This allows Olamide to manipulate his vocals to give him the desired result of giving the street a jam.
The featured artists on this album take tracks six to ten. The previously released \u201CTrumpet,\\\" finds Olamide and Ckay singing about ballads and living a good life, as Ckay tries to win a girl over with his voice while Baddo delivers his verses about living an easy and private life. The track is a fusion of pop and Hip-Hop. Bnxn's legendary status as the go-to guy for hooks remains unshaken, If there was ever a doubt, a spin on \u201CCome Alive,\\\" will change your mind. His brilliantly written hook lays the foundation for Olamide\u2019s braggadocious two verses.
Rema, the Mavin Record signed artiste effort on \u201CMukulu,\u201D is so forgettable, that one wonders why the track was not taken off this album. It's a dreary attempt at making a hook. It's even a disrespect to the fans for Rema to have laid this blather hook. \u201CHardcore,\u201D sounds like something created for Hip-Hop fans. The ones who love Baddoo raps. Nothing is hardcore about this track, it's just Olamide having fun in the studio, perhaps after some puffing. \u201CSupplier,\u201D is a return to making a street jam. A freestyle that takes inspiration from UK Grime. \u201CLife Goes On,\u201D is arguably the most personal track on this album. Olamide sings about life changes. The message of this song seems to be reserved for old friends and enemies alike.
\u201CNo Worries,\u201D and \u201CStreet Jam,\u201D are the final two tracks on the album. On the former, Olamide makes peace with life's challenges while he's full of hope for what life will bring. \u201CStreet Jam,\u201D reminds one of \u201CVoice of the Street\u201D of the YBNL album (2012). This track is significant, it's a way of paying homage to the street and appreciating them for their support.
He had become the spokesman for street culture, often recycling inner-city trends and watering them down for the mass audience. This sense of greater responsibility came through on the album in spurts.
