Reports suggest that Asake's contract with YBNL recently expired. Despite Olamide's efforts to renew the deal, Asake opted against signing a new one. 

This decision, made approximately two weeks ago, marks a definitive end to his association with the label. Asake is now pursuing his career independently, leaving Olamide to search for new talent to fill the void.

Asake's decision to unfollow everyone on social media and remove all mentions of YBNL from his Instagram bio underscores the finality of his departure. 

This bold move signals a clear break from his past and a commitment to forging his own path. The news has sparked a range of reactions, with some praising Asake's ambition and others expressing disappointment in Olamide's handling of the situation. 

Many fans are excited for Asake's future, believing he has the potential to achieve even greater success on his own. However, some critics argue that Olamide should have simply given Asake his blessings as he embarks on his solo journey.

Asake's departure from YBNL marks a significant moment in his career and the broader landscape of the Nigerian music industry. The split highlights the evolving dynamics between artists and labels in today's music scene. 

Despite the split, Asake has openly acknowledged the significant impact Olamide has had on his career. A widely shared video captures the emotional moment when Olamide signed Asake to YBNL.
