Nigerian music fans are buzzing after award-winning rapper and YBNL boss, Olamide, showed support for Wizkid’s son, Boluwatife Balogun, popularly known as Champz, on Instagram.
The young star, who has been building a reputation in fashion, music, and entertainment content, caught Olamide’s attention with his recent posts showcasing his growing brand. In a move that shocked many, Olamide interacted directly with Champz’s content — seen as a major co-sign from one of Afrobeats’ biggest icons.
The gesture has sparked widespread excitement online, with many fans praising Olamide for encouraging the young talent. Social media users also applauded the cordial relationship between the families of two of Nigeria’s most influential music figures — despite past fan-driven rivalries between Wizkid and Olamide’s camps.
Boluwatife, now a teen influencer, has been consistent with fashion brand promotion, lifestyle content and hints of possible future ventures in music. With this new spotlight from Olamide, supporters believe it may mark the beginning of a bigger industry journey for the young star.
As one fan put it:
“From Starboy to YBNL support — the future of Afrobeats is secured.”
Neither Wizkid nor Olamide has publicly made further comments, but fans are watching closely to see if this online support turns into full-blown collaboration opportunities for the rising Champ.
