While appearing on the Honest Bunch Podcast alongside legendary producer and Coded Tunez boss ID Cabasa, Sexy Steel recalled the first time he met Olamide and the reasons he holds the YBNL boss in high esteem.

Echoing Sexy Steel's sentiments, ID Cabasa who mentored Olamide and under whose record label he released his debut album 'Rhapsody' stated that Olamide learned from the mistakes of the stars ahead of him and this helped him to avoid making the same mistake.

After gaining mainstream attention with his single 'Eni Duro' in 2010, Olamide Baddo would go on to become one of Afrobeats' most decorated and illustrious music stars. The rapper reached the peak of the industry as an artist while also replicating the same as a label boss.

As a rapper, Olamide is the only artist to have won the Headies Album of the Year on three consecutive occasions while also churning out hit songs every year from 2010 to date.

As a label boss, Olamide has churned out many talents from his YBNL record label. Lil Kesh, Adekunle Gold, Pheelz, Young Jonn, Fireboy, and Asake are artists and producers whom Olamide signed and propelled to stardom.
