In the dynamic realm of Nigerian entertainment, few tales better capture the strength of skill and guidance than the partnership between Kwara-born performer Jimoh Lateef Agbalaya, better known by his stage name Jiron, and one of Africa’s greatest musical legends, Olamide Badoo.
This collaboration was, for Jiron, nothing less than a dream come true. Known for his unparalleled musical ability, Olamide welcomed Jiron’s gift without question or request. Olamide demonstrated that he was a true kingmaker in a field where partnerships are frequently expensive, providing his backing only out of respect for Jiron’s talent.
āI didnāt even have the whole day to sit with Olamide in the studio,ā Jiron recalls. āI dropped my verse, and he handled the rest with ease. When I heard his verse, it was magic. He killed it.ā
