Afrobeats sensation Asake has addressed ongoing speculation about his relationship with his former label boss, Olamide, insisting that their bond remains intact.
The rumours gained traction after Asake removed YBNL from his Instagram bio and unfollowed Olamide in December 2024, sparking talk of a possible fallout between the two.
However, speaking in a recent interview with Korty EO, the singer dismissed any notion of bad blood. He stressed that his respect and admiration for Olamide have not changed over time.
According to him, his perception of the rapper, popularly known as “Baddo”, has remained consistent and will continue to do so regardless of his own achievements in the future.
The speculation comes amid reports that Asake’s contract with YBNL may have reached its end, with the artist choosing not to renew and instead pursue an independent path.
While neither Asake nor Olamide has officially confirmed details of the contract situation, sources within the industry suggest that any separation between the two was handled amicably.
Asake has repeatedly acknowledged Olamide’s role in shaping his career, and his latest remarks reinforce the narrative of a lasting professional and personal connection between the pair.
