sucessfull entertaining, whose uniqueness is rapping in his

People Magazine where he explains his reasons for not
rapping in English. . Olamide said:
Se Ema San Wo Mi (will you pay me for that)
(laughs). Like I have always said, if I want to listen to
an English rap, I will rather buy a Jay Z CD, because
