Olamide inspired me – Singer, Mayorkun
Adewale Mayowa Emmanuel, better known as Mayorkun, a Nigerian singer, has revealed that iconic singer and rapper Olamide inspired him.
In a recent Snapchat video of himself freestyling, the ‘Cheche’ crooner said Olamide inspired how he writes his music.
While acknowledging the YBNL boss’ influence on his penmanship, the former DMW signee stated that Baddo taught him that good songwriting does not have to be in English.
He captioned the video: “Na Baddo [Olamide] make me know say pen game no be by English o! IYKVK.”

He won the highly coveted Next Rated category at The Headies two years later, solidifying his stardom.
