Olamide Sets June 11 for Release of Self-Titled Album
Nigerian rap heavyweight and music executive Olamide is gearing up to release his highly anticipated self-titled album, Olamide, on June 11, 2025. The project follows the success of his last body of work Ikigai, which marked a reflective era in his sound. This time, fans are eager to see how the YBNL boss reinvents himself with fresh energy and direction.
The buzz around the new album intensified after Olamide dropped a pre-release single titled Kai, featuring Wizkid. The track, which has quickly climbed charts and sparked online discussions, has heightened expectations for the full album rollout.
While the official tracklist remains under wraps, fans have speculated that the album may include collaborations with BOJ and potentially feature work with legendary American producer Dr. Dre. Olamide was spotted in a studio session with Dre earlier this year, fueling rumors of an international collaboration.
No other singles have been announced ahead of the release date, making Kai the sole teaser so far. This has led many to believe Olamide may be saving the surprises for the album drop.
As one of the most consistent and influential figures in Nigerian music, Olamide’s upcoming project is widely expected to deliver genre-blending sounds and high-profile features, once again affirming his place at the top of the game.
