Olamide Badoo, a Nigerian artist and rapper, has claimed that his next album may be his last.
Olamide Adedeji, better known as Olamide, a Nigerian musician and rapper, has stated that his long-awaited upcoming album may be his last.
“My next album, Unruly, is 95 percent ready,” the singer/rapper posted in a tweet on Saturday evening.
However, I have no idea when it will be released because I am taking my time to make it the best it can possibly be.
It would most likely be my final album, though I might release singles every now and then if the mood strikes me.
It’s been a fantastic run, as I’ve been giving out albums one after the other.”
Recall that when Olamide came into the industry, he was initially releasing albums on a yearly basis until 2016.
Olamide, who is regarded as one of the most influential artistes in the country, had in 2011, released his debut studio album titled, Rapsodi, while signed to Coded Tunes.
In 2012, he followed it up with Yahoo Boy No Laptop (YBNL), on the imprint of his own record label, YBNL Nation.
The album contained songs such as First of All, Voice of the Street, Stupid Love and Ilefo Illuminati.
On November 7, 2013, he released his third studio album, Baddest Guy Ever Liveth. Some of the songs included Durosoke and Yemi My Lover.
The following year, he released another album titled, Street OT; and in 2015, he released another album with long-time collaborator, Phyno, titled, 2 Kings. This was followed by a solo album titled, Eyan Mayweather.
The following year, he released The Glory before taking a break until 2020 when he released 999, an Extended Play album, which was a joint venture deal between YBNL Nation and United States of America-based Empire Distribution.
The same year, he released Carpe Diem.
In 2021, he released another album titled, UY Scuti.
The singer had been a force to reckon with in the entertainment industry for over a decade, and his decision to stop releasing albums is seen by some as the likely end of an era.
