    T.I. Blaze recounts his life both before and after meeting Olamide.

    Nigerian street hop singer, T.I Blaze has opened up on his life before and after he met with YBNL founder, Olamide.

    The singer who came to light thanks to his hit song “Sometimes‘ was a guest on the music podcast show, Echo Room where he shared details about his career and the sacrifice he made before fame.

    Talking about how his life was pre-Olamide meeting, Blaze said that the original version of “Sometimes” made one million streams on Audiomack which made him the first person from his hood to achieve this feat.

    He said that however, the rise in streams did not change anything about his situation as he was still in the same level.

    “I was basically the first artist from that hood to make 500k streams on Audiomack and the first person to make one million streams. So immediately I hit that one million stream, I was checking my Whatsapp and everybody was just posting that you are the first person to make it out of the hood, that one million, and me I don’t even have anything, so when the song nw hot like 3, 4 Million, people are already knowing the song and me I like basically didn’t change…”

    Things started getting better for the singer around November 2021 when he started getting shows and the song’s stream was almost at 10 Million.

    His fated meeting with Olamide took place after the YBNL CEO had posted the artwork of “Sometimes‘ on his Instagram story prompting Blaze to take to Baddo’s DM to beg him for help.

    He said that Olamide responded to his message by inviting him to his home where they collaborated on the remix. According to him, Olamide was the one who requested that the song be published the following day.

    Blaze disclosed that he cried when he heard that Olamide posted his artwork on his IG page.
