Olamide Adedeji, the CEO of YBNL has apologised to his
fans over his infamous outburst at the 2015 Headies
awards ceremony in Lagos.
The event which took place at the Landmark events
centre, Oniru, Lagos, was characterised by controversies
following the failure of Olamide’s boy, Lil Kesh to win the
coveted ‘Next Rated Award’, losing to Mavin Record’s
Reekado Banks.

Olamide expressed his disappointment when he went on
stage and thinking he was on the receiving end of the
‘Melo Melo’ crooner, Don Jazzy of the Mavin Records went
up stage to throw a tirade at the former.
“Lil Kesh is our own Next Rated artist. F**k that sh*t! The
streets ti take over. Every f**king single was a hit back to
back. From lyrically, to Shoki to Efejoku. Ko ni dafun Iya
anybody,” Olamide had ranted on stage.
This has since generated a lot of buzz on the social media
with more Nigerians siding with Olamide over his outburst.
The singer who prides himself as being the only Nigerian
rap artiste to hold ‘Sold Out’ concerts at four different
venues has now apologised to his fans over his reaction.

He took to his Instagram handle to issue a statement.
“I want to apologise to my fans for my conduct, including
swearing on Live TV, at the Headies event some hours
ago. I recognise that you all are the most important part
of my work and my journey so far, and I would not have
come this far without you. Therefore, you deserve better
from me. I promised to conduct myself in a more
respectable manner in future,” he wrote.
In spite of t he apology, the Shakitibobo hit singer did not
spare Don Jazzy, as he threw series of jibes at the
ingenious beat maker.
