Asake Sparks Speculation of Departure from YBNL After Unfollowing Olamide
Nigerian singer Asake has fueled rumours of a split from his record label, YBNL, after notable changes on his social media accounts.
Fans noticed that the artist, known for hits like Sungba, had removed “YBNL” from his Instagram bio, replacing it with the title “creative director.” Additionally, Asake unfollowed YBNL founder Olamide, further intensifying speculation about a possible departure.
Despite these developments, YBNL’s Instagram account continues to follow Asake, suggesting the relationship might not be entirely severed.

The rumoured split has sparked conversations among fans and industry observers, though neither Asake nor YBNL has issued an official statement about the situation.
Asake’s affiliation with YBNL has been pivotal to his success, making his next steps in the music industry a subject of keen interest.
