Olamide Has Been Responsible For 3 Top Ten Hits For Three Different Artistes With No Previous Chart Entry In The Last 8 Weeks

For unto us a king is given and his name shall be called Olamide Baddo and the keys to the street shall be in his court. And whosoever finds favor in the eyes of the King shall be granted a verse that will bestow good fortune. His song and name shall travel far and wide to all corners of the streets and everyone who hears his song shall say: indeed, this is a man that bears the mark of the King.

Olamide is a super talented hitmaker with the ability to effortlessly churn out hits and a veteran with over a decade of enviable success under his belt. Keeping tabs of Olamide’s hits is akin to standing by the Third Mainland Bridge with the intention of counting the number of Danfos in Lagos. In the course of his illustrious career, Olamide has generously lent his stellar services to his peers and delivered impeccably for numerous artists, across different genres, and different sounds.

With his eleventh studio album Carpe Diem, Olamide reinforced his position as a veteran with his eyes on the future. He gave fast-rising talents the chance to shine on his album and they didn’t disappoint. Olamide continued in this trend with UY Scuti which served as a spring board for a handful of emerging talents and producers.

In 2022, even as King Olamide Baddo evolves into a successful label boss and businessman, the doors to his court have remained wide open and emerging talents have continued to find favor in his eyes.

The presence of Olamide on “Zazoo Zehh” remix brought life into a track that a large section of listeners previously believe to be unbearable. With Baddo’s assistance, “Zazoo Zehh”, became a street hit that enjoyed a wide success that propelled it to a NO.6 peak on TurnTable Top 50. Before the Olamide remix, Portable was a rough-around-the-edges street artist with a dream. The road to success was tedious and filled with daunting challenges until the petite-sized, blonde-haired artist met the King. And in the short while since the release of “Zazoo Zehh” remix, Portable has achieved a major career makeover that has made him into an artist with a reasonable following and set him on the path to success.

Fresh off breathing life into “Zazoo Zehh” remix, Olamide was tapped by emerging artist TI Blaze for the remix of his single “Sometimes”. Once again, Olamide blessed the track with his presence and the single has since risen to new heights. In “Sometimes,” TI Blaze contended that Canadian Loud (Canadian Cannabis) brought a different type of feeling that even the best delicacies can’t give. However, after linking up with the King for the remix and seeing his single reach NO.7 on Nigeria’s number one music chart, it can be expected that the youngster would bear testimony that nothing compares to having the King on your single. And a Baddo remix is far greater than the combined effects of a million Kilos of Canadian Loud.

To complete an effortlessly 3peat of hit collaborations in the first 7 weeks of 2022, Olamide delivered a sizzling verse on Asake’s captivating medley “Omo Ope”. The single has emerged as one of the biggest singles of 2022 rising to N0.3 on TurnTable Top 50. Olamide has since signed Asake to his label YBNL and the union is undoubtedly expected to bear healthy fruits for both parties.

In 2022, King Baddo has been able to mark his presence on the high end of the charts while simultaneously lifting emerging talents into a bigger market. This week, King Baddo has two songs in the top ten and both songs didn’t even need music videos to reach that height.

Recently, Olamide announced that his forthcoming album might be his last and the moment was a bitter-sweet one for the industry and for fans who for years have been thrilled by his music. As Olamide continues to establish himself a model label boss and businessman, fans and artists will be hoping that the King will find the time to continue to extend his grace to established and emerging artists, and also continue to occasionally drop new materials.

As far as successful songs go, Portable, TI Blaze, and Asake join the list of artists who have sought the kingdom of King Baddo and have every other thing added on to them. For artists out there hoping to seek the Kingdom of Baddo, this writer hopes you find favor in the eyes of the King.
