I want to go back to YBNL – Lyta begs Olamide to accept him

Nigerian music sensation, Lyta, has indicated interest in returning to his former record label, YBNL Nation, owned by Olamide.

He appealed to the YBNL boss to accept him back four years after exiting the label due to personal differences.

Lyta return to YBNL

Lyta featured as guest on Ginger Yourself Podcast, where he explained that he didn’t leave YBNL “intentionally.”

He said; “I want to be back with YBNL, what I did back then [leaving YBNL Nation] wasn’t intentional. I didn’t hear from Olamide before leaving and after I left, he just locked up.

“But I’ve spoken to him since leaving. I chatted with him via Instagram on his birthday and he responded.”

Asked if Olamide is following him on Instagram, the ‘Monalisa’ crooner said; “No. He is not following anybody on Instagram.”

Nigerian singer and actor, Idowu Adeyemi also known as Yhemo Lee has recollected how he helped Afrobeats sensation, Asake to meet Olamide.

The nightlife promoter said he and the ‘Joha’ crooner have been friends for about 13 years and when Olamide signed him it was an unbelievable moment.

He said that he recorded a song which featured DanDizzy and YKB, so when Baddo heard the track, he liked it and reached out.

According to him, Olamide first asked for DanDizzy’s contact, saying that he wants them to collaborate and it was in the middle of their online conversation that he advocated for Asake.

Yhemo Lee said he was only hoping for the ‘Shakiti Bobo’ hit maker to bless Asake with a verse and not expecting a record deal.

He said that after a few chats, Olamide asked him to send an audio file of Omo Ope and he recorded on it without delay, afterwhich he sent it back to Yhemo.

He said Olamide started talking about promotion and about two days later, he revealed that he was interested in signig Asake to YBNL.

The promoter said he went straight to Olamide’s house where the contract was ready and waiting for them. Yhemo Lee added that it was that same day Asake signed the documents.
