Olamzzy Set To Release New Single ‘Aza’
Idowu Solomon Olamilekan, known by his stage name Olamzzy, is carving a unique space in Nigeria’s hip-hop scene. Raised in Ilorin, he discovered his love for music in his teenage years, drawing inspiration from some of Nigeria’s biggest icons like Olamide, Burna Boy, and Wizkid. These artists, each with their own struggles and triumphs, serve as a roadmap for Olamzzy, showing him that even those from humble beginnings can reach the global stage. With his distinctive sound that blends street authenticity with hip-hop’s mainstream appeal, Olamzzy has quickly become a voice to watch in the Nigerian music industry.
Olamzzy’s journey has been marked by challenges, from financial limitations to limited access to studios. Yet, much like his role models, he has found ways to channel these obstacles into his art. His story mirrors that of Olamide, who rose to fame by staying true to his street roots, and Burna Boy, who took years to perfect his Afro-fusion sound before achieving international recognition. Inspired by their resilience, Olamzzy has made it his mission to turn his own struggles into songs that reflect his journey and connect with fans who relate to his background and ambition.
In 2024, Olamzzy released his EP titled *Milestone*, a project that captures his growth and dedication. The EP features six tracks that showcase his versatility and vision, including “Gbedu,” “More Celebration,” “No Competition,” “E Go Be” (featuring TDOLLAR), “Emilokan,” and “Anyway.” Each song tells a story of resilience, hope, and the desire for success in a challenging environment. The lead track, “Gbedu,” has already garnered significant attention, reflecting his ability to create music that resonates with the realities of Nigerian youth. This project not only solidifies his presence in the industry but also establishes his commitment to building a legacy.
Beyond *Milestone*, Olamzzy continues to push boundaries with new music. He is set to release a highly anticipated single titled “Aza” in November 2024, further expanding his growing catalog. This upcoming track promises to deliver his signature style while exploring themes that resonate with his audience. With each release, Olamzzy aims to reach more listeners, using his music as a platform to inspire and uplift others who are navigating similar struggles.
As Olamzzy’s career unfolds, he remains committed to representing his generation, telling stories that highlight the experiences of Nigerian youth. His vision is to become more than just a successful artist; he wants to be a symbol of resilience and ambition for those who aspire to make it against the odds. Through his music, Olamzzy hopes to leave a lasting impact on the Nigerian music scene and, ultimately, to make his mark on the world stage.
