Olamide Adedeji, the CEO of YBNL has apologised to his fans
over his infamous outburst at the 2015 Headies awards ceremony in Lagos.
The event which took place at the Landmark events centre, Oniru,
Lagos, was characterised by controversies following the failure of
Olamide’s boy, Lil Kesh to win the coveted ‘Next Rated Award’, losing to
Mavin Record’s Reekado Banks.
Olamide expressed his disappointment when he went on stage and thinking he was on the receiving end of the ‘Melo Melo’ crooner, Don Jazzy of the Marvin Records went up stage to throw a tirade at the former.
“Lil Kesh is our own Next Rated artist. F**k that sh*t! The
streets ti take over. Every f**king single was a hit back to back. From
lyrically, to Shoki to Efejoku. Ko ni dafun Iya anybody,” Olamide had ranted on stage.
This has since generated a lot of buzz on the social media with more Nigerians siding with Olamide over his outburst.
The singer who prides himself as being the only Nigerian rap artiste
to hold ‘Sold Out’ concerts at four different venues has now apologized
to his fans over his reaction.
He took to his Instagram handle to issue a statement.
“I want to apologise to my fans for my conduct, including
swearing on Live TV, at the Headies event some hours ago. I recognise
that you all are the most important part of my work and my journey so
far, and I would not have come this far without you. Therefore, you
deserve better from me. I promised to conduct myself in a more
respectable manner in future,” he wrote.
