When Olamide started getting too much money and didn’t know what to do with it, he decided to sign new artists. He wanted to give back to society by helping new artists achieve their goals.
In his words,
“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.”
This decision has proven to be a successful one. Fireboy DML and Asake have become household names in the Nigerian music industry and beyond.
