When you hear Olamide since 2017 and you think you know his music. I’ve been listening to Olamide since 2011 how old were most of you then?

Some people will just come here and spew thrash and talk as if they know a lot about African Rappers…most don't know Casper Nyovest, A-Reece, Khaligraph Jones, Stanley Enow but they'll comfortably say Olamide is the Best Rapper in Africa… are you people mad or something?!🤦🏼♂️

Olamide is better lyrically. He is also better in every aspect despite his 'yorubaness'. You just need emancipation from colonial mentality that has indoctrinated you to think rapping in English is better lyrically. Olamide raps in a fusion of at least 3 languages.
