Nigerian rapper and artist Olamide Adedeji [Baddo) has revealed why he founded a record label.
The YBNL boss stated that he founded a record label in order to spend his “becoming too much” money on the careers of budding artists.
He revealed this in an interview with Ebro Darden of Apple Music.
He said, “I just started stacking up money and the money was becoming too much for me. I’m like, yo, I don’t have anything to do with all this money, mehn, I need to sign new guys. Let me spend money on people, you know.
“It is just like my own little way of giving back to the community.”
Olamide’s YBNL Nation is home to two of the country’s hottest new generational afrobeats performers, Fireboy DML and Asake.
The label previously signed Adekunle Gold, Lil Kesh, Chinko Ekun, Young Jonn, and Pheelz.
