Renowned rapper and music executive, Olamide Adedeji aka Olamide Baddo, has explained why he did not sign his junior colleague, Omah Lay to YBNL Nation label.

Olamide stated this in an interview with British-Nigerian media personality Adesope Olajide, aka Shopsydoo.

Olamide said: “Somebody sent me Omah Lay’s song, ‘Bad Influence,’ I had to like search for him on Instagram. I messaged him that I want to sign him but he told me that he got a [recording] deal already.”

The rapper also revealed that he was depressed for about four years after running out of hit songs.
