YBNL, established in 2012, is a record label owned by popular Nigerian rapper-cum-singer Olamide. In 2020, it signed a distribution deal with international music distribution and publishing company Empire.
Olamide has brought out a number of talented artists in Nigeria—some he officially signed, some he only helped. Popular Nigerian singer Adekunle Gold, among others, was formerly signed to YBNL.
The purpose of this article, therefore, is to show you a list of all the artists presently signed to YBNL.
1. Olamide
Olamide, 32, is the honcho of YBNL, as already established. He’s a successful businessman and outstanding rapper whose consistency over the years has cemented his validity in the hearts of millions of music lovers in Nigeria and aboard.
His positions at YBNL, as both the honcho and an artist, are akin to American rapper Jay Z’s positions (chairman and artist) at Roc Nation.
2. Fireboy DML
Adedamola Adefolahan, better known by the name of Fireboy DML, is a talented 26-year-old Nigerian singer and songwriter. He got his breakthrough when he signed a recording deal with YBNL in 2018 and his first official song ‘Jealous’ appeared on YBNL’s 2018 compilation album, ‘YBNL Mafia Family’. The song would later be rereleased as a single in March 2019.
Few months after that, his debut album, ‘Laughter, Tears & Goosebumps’, released. He fast followed the successful album with another critically acclaimed album, ‘Apollo’ released in 2020.
Speaking of crossing boundaries, Fireboy is a genius. The remix of his outstanding single of 2021, ‘Peru’ with British singer Ed Sheeran won him a UK platinum, an entry in the US Billboard Top 100, and a collaboration with the legend Madonna.
3. Asake
Born Ahmed Ololade Asake in late 1990s, Asake’s ride to YBNL actually began in the year 2020 when he released a freestyle, ‘Lady’, that went so viral that Nigerian inflencers, like Tunde Ednut, reposted it.
Olamide announced Asake’s signing to YBNL in February 2022. Before then, they had worked together on the remix of ‘Omo Ope’.
In an interview, Asake revealed that he begged Olamide for 2 years before he got signed. Read the post here.
3. JayBoi
JayBoi first appeared on Olamide’s album titled ‘999’ released in 2020. Olamide in a Twitter post telling how he met JayBoi wrote:
‘People should watch out for jayboi 😈 met him in abeokuta IBD hotel. he served me drinks and started free styling for hours,he didn’t wanna leave 😂 I just had to put him on .. Cant wait to see him shine 🌟’.JayBoi was signed alongside Asake in February 2022.
JayBoi has released a single ‘Yeobaye’ under YBNL featuring Olamide.
4. Senth Music
On November 17, 2022, Olamide announced the signing of Senth Music to YBNL via his social media handles. Senth was unveiled with his first official song ‘Dagger’ under YBNL. The music video was shot by Nigeria’s hottest video director TG Omori, and has been viewed over 1 million times on YouTube.

Sup ppl
I’m a girl living in secular world. In as much I have an ambitious and God backing then success is sure. I might not be rich or have the money to sponsor myself to become a successful musical but if I get sign into YBNL. I will be most happiest person on earth to be able to fulfil my dream of becoming a musical. Some people might be thinking WHY I wish to get sign into YBNL. Because it has the potential, creativity and original too. I’d love to join YBNL not for anything else because they bring your natural voice out more strongly and intune and also the training from that label is enough to make a lame guy or girl become a music expert and also have good experience in grooming young talents which is 100%. I ain’t the best and I know there were some better and good musical young artist out there hoping to get sign into some label record just like me but if I get sign into YBNL label. I will try all my best not to let you down and also not disappoint you too. Thank you. A real lady will never change her name Muhammed Kafayat Adetoun but my stage name on Instagram is Slimy_Tounex
