I’m Not Desperate for International Recognition – Olamide

Nigerian indigenous rapper Olamide Adedeji, popularly known as Olamide has revealed he’s not desperate to go international.

According to him, he is comfortable being an indigenous artist.

Speaking in a recent interview with BBC Radio 1Xtra, Olamide stated that he would not change his sound or switch his style to appeal to a Western audience.

“You have to identify your audience. Once you identify your audience, the rest of the world will catch up eventually. So, I have to stay true to myself and no mater where it is, what it is, I mean, in this world, I have to stay true to myself.

“I’m comfortable in my skin. I’m a Naija guy, Yoruba boy, I have H-Factor and all that, and I’m proud about it. You just have to stay true to yourself,” he said.
