Olamide Shows Why He’s the King in Sold Out London Concert

Nigerian hip hop icon Olamide made history Sunday night as the first African rapper to sell out the 12,500-capacity OVO Wembley Arena.

Fans packed the venue to celebrate a milestone in Nigerian music, and the rapper received a plaque onstage to celebrate the achievement. The atmosphere was electric, as if Lagos had been transported to London, with most of the arena buzzing with energy and excitement.

The concert was also livestreamed on his YouTube page and was watched by thousands who experienced the rapper's first London headline concert since 2016.

Highlights from the Show

Olamide kicked off the night by performing some of his most popular hits, including ‘The Money’, ‘Don’t Stop’, ‘Infinity’, and ‘Eleda Mi O’. 

The night was also a true reflection of his superstar status, as he delivered hit after hit while thousands of fans sang along to the lyrics.

One of the concert’s viral moments came when the rapper performed his single ‘Lambebe’, released 11 years ago, and the crowd sang every word. The staying power of his music and the sheer love from the fans led him to remind everyone that no one captures the culture’s pulse better. 

Baddo had to remind them he’s bigger than the Big 3 convo.
