My collaboration with Wizkid made things easier for me – Olamide

Olamide talks about the benefits of working with Wizkid.
Olamide Adedeji has acknowledged that his collaboration with Wizkid was beneficial to him at the beginning of his career.
The YBNL boss made the statement during an interview on Apple Music Africa when he reflected on their friendly connection.
Olamide stated that at the time he cooperated with Wizkid, he had left his record company, Coded Tunes, therefore it was Wiz and his previous boss, Banky W, founder of EME, who were backing him.
According to the ‘Wo‘ singer, the collaboration gave him an advantage and made things easier for him in the industry.
Between 2009 and 2010, when Wizkid and Olamide first began to see success in their individual music careers, there existed a particular bond that made the two artists the pinnacle of the perfect “friendship” in the industry.
It may be recalled that Big Wiz and Baddo worked together on the song “Omo Toh Shan” when he just left Coded Tunes to stand alone.
They would later collaborate on the 2018 song, “Kana” and again in 2019 for ID Cabasa’s “Totori“. They also have other collaborations that weren’t released officially like “Confam” released in 2015, and “Ebelebe” among others.
