Olamide of YBNL fame speaks on the source of his consistency and how he has so much music in his arsenal that he can’t run out of songs.
Speaking with The Punch Sunday Scoop, the ‘Shakiti bobo’ crooner addresses people who feel he will soon run out of songs, saying:
“Whenever people say things like that, I just laugh. Talent comes from God and if you have it, then you have it. Even as I’m chatting with you, I can get inspiration for a song and I would immediately note it in my mind. As long as life exists and things happen on earth, I will always have the inspiration to sing.
“Music is life and life is music. If I were to release all the songs I have ever recorded, they would scatter the whole place. I work in the studio everyday and there are many songs I have recorded that I am yet to release as singles or in albums.”
The rapper attributes the Grace of God and also keeping his ears to the ground about trending issues, and creatively finding a way to input it into his music in a way that would resonate with his listeners.
“Most importantly the Grace of God that has kept me. I don’t do this by my power or might. I also go with the flow and keep my ears on the ground. I know about the new slangs that are spoken on the streets and sometimes, I turn them into songs, which resonate with people because they can identify with the content of the song.”
