The famous critic stated that it is upsetting how people belittle his impact.
His words: “Olamide has impacted on many artistes career, then want ahead to elevate, mentor, & inspire some new-generation artistes; When it comes to paving the way for his colleagues, no-one from his set comes close, but he’s barely given due credit. The rate at which people belittle his impact is upsetting.”
