These two yoruba icon rappers are well known for their zest in rapping using their mother-tongue. Although, there seems to be many yoruba rappers out there, but the most accomplished of them all seems to b these two (with the later being late presently), with Lord-of-Ajasa closely following by.
As a fan of rap music, whom do you think has hit the ground running the most between the two, knowing fully that one of em is late presently?

♓☺w can you make such an irrelevant conclusion. Dagrin passed on 2010 or so, with his song reigning all over nigeria. Where was Olamide then? 2012 Olamide came out and now he is making waves. Don't you think in this space of two years, there have been much improvement all thanks to improvement in technology quality. Now he is making waves. Then Ɣøû sit there and just conclude that Olamide has outpaced dagrin. May i ask you on what basis has olamide outpaced dagrin?
Have you forgotten that dagrin is no longer making music and rap?
Have you forgotten that dagrin cannot improve on his lyrics again? or have you forgotten that dagrin cannot even hear anybody sing again? Please show some respect for the dead and the living. Stop comparing two uncomparables all in the name of starting a post. There is no comparison here. May dagrin soul rest in peace.

@op. Next if you want to compare, then compare two similar things and not two un-similar things

Olamide came out with eniduro and omo toshan that year. And in 09/10 dagrin was making wave all over nigeria even in the east where i was then, his album was so hot to extent that you will see an ibo guy that doesn't even understand the language rushing the cd and singing the song then. May FYI, olamide has not started making waves in the east he has only made impact here in west. From your previous post, one can deduce that you are a big fan of Olamide. I honestly don't have a problem with that. But where i have problem with, is you saying that Olamide has outpaced dagrin when we all know that dagrin is dead long ago. May i also inform you that dagrin succeeded in chasing Lord of Ajasa inside when he came out. Dagrin was the hottest then cos all the artist wanted to do collabo with him and even till his death, they were still using some of his songs to do collabo. So why compare dagrin with olamide? Answer these questions pls. Has olamide not improved since he released his first album?
Do you dagrin will release any album again to know if he had improved?
These two questions will tell you not to compare two wrong things again. Rather compare olamide with other living artist and let them better him. Otherwise, if you keep comparing both, Olamide will be stagnant because he has no competition from dagrin again. Period.

I tink I lyk ur argument bro. Dis topic is an issue of debate n every 1 dat comments is titled to his opinion; hence, u dropd urs which is a very point 4 anybody to counter argue.

Ola and Dagrin are both the best.
