Who is Olamide?...

This dude Olamide has always being my person from inception, but getting him down for an interview hasn’t been easy for his strong love for the studio. This dude is very hard working and energetic. At last,
I got him for a couple of hours to talk to me about a few issues which I am sure his 'friends' as he calls them want to know. This dude is a very humble individual and I enjoyed every bit of time spent with him on this day. Here are a few of the excerpts of our discussion. Interview by Wale Applause.
