Olamide Details Why He Signed Fireboy, Asake And Others

Olamide Baddo has given an explanation of his reasoning behind signing artists like Fireboy DML, Asake, and others to his record company.

The YBNL boss claimed that when he discovered he had accumulated so much wealth that he didn’t know what to do with it, he made the decision to sign fresh musicians.

The rapper claimed it was his way of giving back to the community by deciding to support up-and-coming musicians in realising their aspirations of becoming household names.

Baddo said, “I just started stacking up money and the money was becoming too much for me. I was like, ‘Yo, I don’t have anything to do with this money. I need to sign new guys.

Let me spend money on people. You know it is just like my own way of giving back to society.”
