Olamide Adedeji popularly known as Olamide is no doubt a household name when it comes to the Nigerian Music scene.
‘The baddest guy ever liveth’ was the guest of another episode of The
Truth with Olisa and it was mind-blowing. Olamide talked about the true
story behind his popular hit track ‘story for the gods’, his
relationship status, how he started music as a career, how he produces
songs and more.
The Ogun state born who is of an Ijebu origin studied Mass
Communication at Tai Solarin University of Education. When asked about
his relationship, the singer who recently welcomed a baby boy from his
longtime girlfriend said he is not ready for marriage right now. He said
when everything is set, he will definitely get married.
Olamide acknowledged the likes of Don Jazzy, Phyno and Vector, saying
their works have been helping the music industry to move forward. When
asked if he is a member of a particular political party he performed for
during 2015 election rallies, the singer did not give an answer as he
obviously succeeded in avoiding the question.
There has been so many reactions about Olamide’s popular hit, ‘Story
for the gods’. When Olisa asked the sensational singer what he thinks
about people’s reaction to the song as a song which glorifies r*pe,
Olamide said:
”For me, I know the way people get things twisted sometimes.
People don’t leave in your head, they don’t understand the idea behind
everything. I’ve been just cool with all the reactions. It is not from a
real life experience but it is a rather just a party song, a ‘lamba’
music and something everyone can go to. That’s the genera idea all the
time when i’m making music. I just wanna do something people can groove
to. If i wanna pass a message with a song, I will know I wanna pass a
message but if I want a proper ‘lamba’ song, I will do it. So story for
the gods is a proper lamba song.”
