In other news, Bella Shmurda has sparked a fresh debate among Afrobeats fans after naming Olamide the greatest Afrobeats artist, but sources suggest the endorsement may not have been entirely voluntary.

The singer, who rose to fame with the 2019 hit "Vision 2020" after a remix with Olamide, recently went on a praise spree, hailing the YBNL boss as "number one above everyone else." According to Bella, Olamide's decision to stay back and build from home rather than chasing international fame is what sets him apart. "He chose to stay back and build from home instead of going international, using his platform to uplift and put many underground artists on," he said.

The statement has opened up a major debate among music fans, with many weighing Olamide's influence against the achievements of other Afrobeats heavyweights.

But here is what the blogs did not tell you.
The real reason Bella Shmurda is being so vocal about Olamide's greatness is not because he has suddenly become a music historian, it is because he heard that Olamide recently bought a new house in Canada, and he wants Olamide to buy him one too. He has been subtly dropping hints in interviews and voice notes, hoping the YBNL boss will catch on. He is not just giving praise, he is pitching for property.
Edgar doesn't lie.
