I lov his music b4, bt now his voice bug. Jst listen 2 konkonbilty n compare it 2 rubish. No diffa. Babe thumbs up, u don mk me fall in love wit u

EmmyDe25:

The guy lost it when i saw "He doesnt dress corporate" how can you be that stupid? such that you are attributing International recognition to dressing in a certain way. Please tell me if Diamond sings in English. Ojuelegba and Gongo Aso are songs that were widely accepted across continents. Were they composed in English ? We just have bunch of muppets on here. This explains why i only come here once a week these days.

Iamsynord:


see as you dey chyke buharisbae...buhari will pight u for kworruption foi

caracas:

Honestly I don't know what u ladies see in that wiz of a kid
Apart from ojuelegba n perhaps on top ur matter I fail to see any reasonable song by him .
Unlike olamide dat releases hits back to back.
Lyrically,vocal wise,street wise, rap wise
Just name it ,plus badoo has bin so consistent unlike ur whistle kido .

kingDELE:
habaha i knw say wizkid get talent die. I respect dat dude wella. But na pple like huna dey make us insult am (wizkid). Olamide is wel o.k in both monetry and fame aspects along side others, der bot have their lane. If wiskid try what ola is doing, den ola try what wiz is doing, u should knw what else will happen.... Most of dis artist are cheats. Der will collect 500k outside Nigeria but will demand for 5mill and above..... I belive music is not 4 only educating. Music should either entertain, educate, inform among odas. So if Ola music doesn't educate u, try d entertainment. It has a function......



Peace.

c i neva hated olamide. Wah m tryin 2 say x dat, he neva oneday wnt 2 stop sayin rubish, n he allowed d rubbish too much. Always releasin music at d wrong tym. Doin d ryt tinx@d wrong time. Buh i lov him wen he decide 2 sing not rap. Like stry 4 d gos, ele dami, and rest. Jst dt his music x too much.

Iamsynord:

so he has not conquered Nigeria yet.....

kingDELE:
let me tell u smtin. What make olamide to b standing dis tall is because of d tracks he drops always.
M.I gave up 4 years in order to give ice Prince a chance in d industry. What happen to his comming back.?? His fans already moved on. ..


Olamide shakiti bobo is blowing, Ola didnt wait 4 dat track to expire, he droped Abule Sowo. U will accept dat Abule Sowo is still hot in d make but he still go futher to drop Konkobility. Broda, if any artist slip in dis industry, he/she will b forgotten 4 good.
Ola drop a free style, more dan 10 different artist have to jump on dis track.

If u are really tired of his tym to tym song, just stop listening to his tracks. If u c it online, dont download. If u are watching television and der put ola video, change d station of of d television.

If Ola decides to start dropping tracks daily, beiv me or not i will download it. And i knw of thousands of pple who will also do so....

We are Nigerians. We knw how we suffer hustling to make make. Dis guy his hustling. He his making us smile.
Smpple say he his singin rubbish. I advice yuh go to studio and sing rubbish.. ..


Der hustle day by day to get d Lala ( money ).. ..

girl4rmspace:

kingDELE:

Iamsynord:


why is everyone shouting america; america: am talking about intl recognition; you are talking about america rappers: is it only when you are known in america that you have intl recognition ??

Iamsynord:
Note - Doing indigenous music is not an excuse for lack of intl recognition. 9ice was invited to nelson mandela and MOB0 and Yousuf won a grammy with his local songs.. So doing local or indigenous song is never an excuse..



1) Quantity Over Quality - Olamide has made quantity is main goal..Flood the scene with songs and songs till you reach a point of equilibrum and then start to decline...

Olamide has failed to allow the people thirst for his songs and his releases are not up to expectations too...

It gets to a point listeners are no longer gingered to listen to what the artist will say as artist becomes monotous and repititive.

The rapper is even gearing up to release a sixth studio album.

2) Branding - Branding is also very much .... The Kind of brand Olamide potrays is of the not too internationally minded artist. He hardly dresses corporate and potray his versatility in his brand..

He has even gone ahead to Brand himself a Local Rapper. This type of image projected is the way he is addressed..

He has even refused to meet up with more influential managers and more serious minded and music experts ..... The lack of Expertise on the side of the management and consisting of influential managers does bear its mark.


3) Appeal - While deviation from indigenous music is not the point. Appeal is very paramount..... Olamide style is not appealing to the outside world.. Sometimes balancing works.. I wonder if Hausas listen to olamide songs ? But i bet more listen to 9ice ? Why

A little of more mature songs and english lyrics might do the trick....Do something appealing to every one and yet dont forget the minority. You dont waste international features with Wale on songs like papilo you go make us proud....

Give them what they love.. Trap,pop. Feature more of their artistes and seek for international features....


Olamide is a Legend and will remain one... However , breaking into the international market Like Wizkid is not an easy job......

Olamide has too much talent than to be labelled a local rapper... We want to see him topping the billboard chart and copping his own BET award soon too... Enough of the Headies and NEA awards.

A wise Artist who struggled to blow will rather remain local, making millions and be relevant for long than to go international and make millions within a very short while and become flop after collaborating with 2Pac and Mohamed Ali . This is the reason why Dagrin rejected shooting his video in UK instead, rejected idea of int.collabo, made up is himd to remain local within 9ja.

IN ettaetta's VOICE, Its better to be a king at home than to be a boi boi internationally.

IN Davido's VOICE, owo ni koko [/size]
