Olamidé is back — and he’s not coming quietly. The YBNL boss is set to drop his 11th studio album titled ‘Olamidé’ on June 18, 2025, and it’s already causing a stir in the Afrobeats world.
The 17-track album brings together a powerful mix of voices and vibes, featuring the likes of Young Jonn, Seyi Vibez, and British singer Daecolm. It also includes fan-favorite singles like ‘Hello Habibi’, ‘Metaverse’, and ‘Uptown Disco’, which boasts star collaborations with Asake and Fireboy DML.
Produced by the ever-talented Willis, one of the most talked-about songs, ‘99’, stands out for more than just its sound. It marks the return of Asake, who left YBNL to launch his own label, Giran Republic, earlier this year. His surprise appearance has sparked speculation that there’s no bad blood between him and Olamidé after all.
Could this be a sign that the bond between mentor and protégé still holds strong? We’ll let the music speak.
Meanwhile, the visuals for ‘99’ are expected to drop soon — and if the tracklist is anything to go by, it’s going to be worth the wait.
Just two months ago, Olamidé linked up with Wizkid for ‘Kai’, their first collaboration since 2011’s ‘Omo To Shan’. Talk about a full-circle moment.
With ‘Olamidé’, the rap icon continues to prove he’s not just a pioneer in the game — he’s still shaping it.
