Tiwa Savage recently shared a touching story about rapper Olamide’s kindness. She revealed that Olamide’s management initially requested ₦100 million for a verse on her song.

However, Olamide declined to charge her due to their close relationship and his understanding of the challenges female artists face. Tiwa expressed her gratitude, highlighting Olamide’s generosity:

“I was talking to his management, I didn’t want to talk to him directly cus he will want to do it for free. Spoke to his team and they charged N100m.

I was willing to pay. When Olamide asked them who the artiste was, they said me and he just said NO.

He won’t take it. He said I am his sister and he knows how difficult it is to make it in the industry as a woman.

That’s how he denied and guess what? He gave me the verse for Free. Good people exist and Baddo is one.”

Ghanaian-American singer Amaarae goes viral after sharing her thoughts on the current state of Afrobeats, stating that the genre has stalled.

She expressed concern about how Afrobeats is becoming too repetitive and urged artists to experiment with new sounds.

“Afrobeats and African music need to evolve. It needs to evolve in a direction that is fearless, and I think right now artists have made so much money from a certain type of sound that they are afraid to step out of the boundaries because they are probably more focused on the financial aspect of it. And as a result, I think Afrobeats has stalled.”

The singer then gave an example, commenting on how Rema did just that with his recent album “HEIS”.
