Olamide Adedeji popularly called Olamide Baddo

YBNL label owner, Olamide Baddo has apologized for the disrespect and bad way he reacted on stage during the just concluded 2015 Headies Awards.

Multi-award winning Nigerian singer, Olamide Adedeji (born 15 March 1989), popularly known by his stage name Olamide has tendered an apology to all of his fans for the fracas that happened during the 2015 Headies Awards between him and Don Jazzy.

He said as a public figure it was rude and childish. The singer has promised not to misbehave in public again. He took to instagram to tender the apology and wrote:

“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,” 

Olamide apologises via Instagram

It would be recalled that Olamide blasted the organisers of the awards for not recognising his protege, Lil Kesh as the Next Rated Artiste. The category was won by Reekado Banks of Don Jazzy’s Mavins.

“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 ranted on stage after the presentation of  the award for Best Alternative act, won by his artist, Adekunle Gold for the song, Shade.

However, the incident took a huge twist when Don Jazzy called out Olamide on stage and said: “Egbon Olamide, if you want the car, come and take it.” (Next Rated win comes with a car). 

The drama was continued on twitter where Olamide heaped barrage on invective after the other at the Mavin label owner.
