Lil Kesh Has Left YBNL Records But We Have Questions

|
April 27, 2016
Lil Kesh has served Nigerians a few great hits and we thank him for that. He is so talented, he caused a fight between Olamide and Don Jazzy during the 2016 Headies but let’s leave trash for LAWMA and continue.

His songs Shoki, Gbese and Efejoku which were released under YBNL were the turn up anthems of 2014 and 2015.

After dropping his first album, YAGI, he announced his departure from Olamide’s YBNL records via Instagram. He also revealed he was starting his own record label also named YAGI records.

Good for him sha, because no Nigerian wants to say “yes sir” to anybody.

Because Olamide shared this tweet back in 2015.

Did he learn how to run a music business after releasing one album and a few singles?

Because last time we checked, it takes more than dropping hits “back to back” to properly run a record label.

Do these musicians actually believe their successes lies only in running their own record label?

How many million record labels are we going to have in Nigeria?

We sha hope Olamide schooled him properly in the business of music.
