Afro-fusion star Ahmed Ololade better known as Ololade Mi Asake or Mr Money has officially left Olamide’s Yahoo Boy No Laptop (YBNL) after two years.

Asake recently dropped his first song Why Love as an independent artiste under his imprint label Giran Republic.

A look at the new music video showed Asake’s imprint name as Giran Republic which used to be YBNL.

However, the singer remains a part of Empire Music, an international distributor which also collaborates with Olamide’s label.

OSG recalls reporting when Asake left YBNL after unfollowing Olamide on IG and deleted his bio that stated his relationship with his former record label.

Asake’s new song under Giran Republic put ends end to his two-year era under YBNL.

During his stay at Olamide’s label, Asake, emerged as the most popular YBNL star on the international scene, witnessing tremendous growth in his career after Olamide signed him in 2022.

Asake while with YBNL dropped hit songs Omo Ope, Sungba, Joha, Terminator, 2:30 and Yoga. He also shut down the prestigious O2 Arena twice.

In related news, Asake had also debunked any form of disagreement between him and his former boss as he hailed Olamide in one of his songs.

“I hope he is safe out there I think it’s too early for him to run his labels on his own he should have at least still been with Empire or Dominical they can push him forward for some years.”

@michealjoshh_ :
“Why are y’all acting like you don’t understand what a contract is? His contract has already expired, and he left, so what exactly is he being ungrateful about? Just because Fireboy chose to renew his contract doesn’t mean Asake should feel obligated to do the same. It’s simple!”
