This dude “Olamide” has always been my person from inception, but getting him down for an interview hasn’t been easy for his strong love for the studio. This dude is very hard-working and energetic. At last, I got him for a couple hours to talk to me about a few issues which I am sure his “friends” [fans] as he calls them want to know. This dude is a very humble individual and I enjoyed every bit of time spent with him on this day. Here are a few of the excerpts of our discussion.

– Tell me more about your relationship with “I.D Cabasa” and how it all started?
More like a father and son thingy, I met “I.D Cabasa” long ago when I was 16 and he developed instrumentals in my zeal, because I told him how much I was willing to learn if he would give me room. We picked it up from there.
