2 Reasons Olamide Will Never Be On The Same Level As Wizkid And Davido by mighty2: 7:49am On Dec 21, 2017

2017 saw Davido and Wizkid not only doing a
tremendous job in their careers, they did a
beautiful job in exporting the Nigerian sound.
So let’s start this way, if you were asked to mention
top 3 artistes in Nigeria today, am certain Olamide’s
name will find a way to sneak in there right, right
Okay, now, for every person working in one field or
the other, let’s take the entertainment industry, for
instance, their goal or as they claim is export the
sound abroad and make themselves known to other
acts around the globe particularly the US.
I already know some people are set to compose
curses aimed at me…calm down…am not done, you
will get your chance.
Davido, Wizkid have both done fantastic jobs doing
just the above, getting their names out there [in the
abroad] and ensuring the big dogs there, get a taste
of our tasteful sound.
Now for Wizkid, he did this; create the Afro-
Caribbean medley enabling the likes of Drake,
Jidenna amongst others take a dip into this ever
filling ocean and creating even more delicious sound
with it.
Davido, on his end made sure several top foreign
ears take a listen to the sound, he did that so well,
OG in the game R-Kelly walked the path of a remix
to his song.
Now Olamide, what excactly is holding this Nigerian
big dog from exporting our sound or even making a
name for himself outside the shores of the land, you
ask him, he will probably say this; I represent the
street, the street is where I belong, I make music for
the people,’ but WO, isn’t Wikzid and Davido doing
just about this and still ensuring the African sound is
being exported? What exactly is stopping you from
let’s even agree you are the king of the street, taking
that street sound you are so certain you own down
there and making them take a listen, work with you
and bring even more awareness to your brand and
the same street you are fighting tooth and nail to
entertain, my answer;
LAZINESS
let’s face it, Olamide is lazy.still hold your unintentionally ripped jean and
sweaty discolored shirt by the only thread it has and
let me finish. Ya man is lazy! He knows just about
how much work it takes to get the above done and
would rather remain in his already falling about
comfort zone as he knows the street will remain the
street, the intellectually challenged zone, hard-drugs
and objectification of a woman’s body does the trick.
Okay, you have to do both to make music, how
about doing it in ways where when the learned ones
who enjoy WOBE sounds listen [as if these people
can understand am certain the foreigners can] they
won’t start trembling and taking a dash a
psychologist to determine their true state of mind,
how about that sir?
FEAR
This one actually baffles me as this is the same man
that has single handlely done wonders for the career
of many who swam in the river of uncertainty of this
aggressive industry. However, I can understand as
this could cause a big challenge when you have to go
to a much more learned setting to ply your trade.
Olamide is simply scared of the unknown. Scared
that the foreigners will reject his sound and this may
take a swing at his emotions, but again isn’t that
what life is about, picking yourself up when it deals
you a huge blow? This is a man who has quite a
number of young ones looking up to him, same ones
who if given just a minute chance to get their sound
heard abroad, they would grab it. So, I ask, what
exactly are you teaching them? You have all it takes,
what exactly is stopping you, if fear isn’t one of it?
I know some of you will come on here saying; as
long as he is making money, repping the street blah
to the effing bla…it’s cool, but ask yourselves, if you
get a chance to be better, to show the world just
how amazing the WOBE sound CAN and should be
with just the right lyrics or even the codeine-based,
illegal money making ventures and body shaming/
objectification ones, done with the right words is, will
you not go for it?
Got thoughts about these reasons, drop your
comments below.

Olamide doesn't do music, he's just a noisemaker
