Popular reviewer and online influencer, Geh Geh, has caused a stir on social media following his controversial take on Olamide’s newly released self-titled album, Olamide.
In a viral video shared via Instagram, Geh Geh openly criticized former YBNL signee Asake, alleging that he contributed to slowing down Olamide’s career.
According to Geh Geh, the impressive quality of Olamide’s latest body of work highlights how the rapper had been holding back creatively for years.
He said:
“This new Olamide album showed who Asake is. He was a hindrance to Olamide’s career. Olamide was giving his energy, resources and time to build Fireboy and Asake. But now that Asake has left the label, Olamide has used that same energy to deliver this masterpiece.”
Though he commended the overall sound of the album, Geh Geh didn’t shy away from pointing out what he believed were flaws in the release strategy.
He added:
“This album should have dropped in December. It would have made a bigger impact. Also, why include Wizkid and Seyi Vibez in a self-titled album? This was supposed to be about Olamide, not features. He should’ve even used this opportunity to help Fireboy bounce back. Fireboy is lagging behind compared to Rema.”
Geh Geh’s opinion has sparked intense conversation online, with fans debating the accuracy and impact of his statements.

@sirleocarter:“You’re new to this industry and you’re schooling a man who’s delivered back-to-back albums for over a decade? Olamide doesn’t do clout. He’s still making billions silently.”
@swizzmayor:“You can’t compare YBNL’s promo to Mavin’s. Don Jazzy has more resources. Fireboy makes more reasonable music.”
@i_am_liskc:“He needed to drop it now because of Grammy recognition. December might be too late.”
