YBNL boss, Olamide, has reacted to the criticisms that trailed his latest song titled “Logo Benz” with Lil Kesh.

The award-winning music star defended the music on his Twitter handle stating that “Logo Benz” is for the third party to have a glimpse into the current state of youths in our society.

The controversial track from the former labelmates was produced by Rexxie and dropped on Thursday.

He further stated that the song is too bring awareness to runs boys and girls adding that It’s all over the news and has always been in movies.

“Logo Benz is for the 3rd party to have a glimpse into the current state of youths in our society.

“(Runs girls x runs boys)” I’m not sure if there’s anything like 2 much awareness, but pardon me if there is.

“It’s all over the news, it’s always been in movies, don’t box musicians,” Olamide wrote.

This is coming after Nigerians took to their social media handles to express their displeasure over the morale behind the song.

The song has vulgar lyrics like “If money no enter I go do blood money” which many perceived is glorifying and promoting “Yahoo Yahoo”, ritual killings, and other illegal ways of making money.

In the song, Olamide said: “I dey pray to Jesu, k’owo wọ lé o, if money no enter I go do blood money o.” Which means “I am praying to Jesus that money should enter if money doesn’t enter I will do blood money.

Lil Kesh came on next to sing, “pata ni logo Benz, a fẹ́ wa Benz,” meaning a pair of panties is the logo of Benz, we want to buy Benz. He went on singing about how he will enjoy the money of the panties in different ways.

Apparently, most Nigerians think the new song is filthy and deliberately misleading the youths

Recall that that Olamide’s hit single, “Science Student” was also banned by National Broadcasting Corporation because of its unhealthy lyrics.

Many stated that Olmide and Lil Kesh song has no depth and passes no credible message.

One @Ayò Bánkólé @AyoBankole, empathetically stated that the song, “Logo Benz” is “just a shameless promotion of ritual killings and desperation for money at all costs, including human blood.”

See more reactions below;

Logo Benz.

No melody. No depth. No message.

Just a shameless PROMOTION of ritual killings & desperation for money at all costs, including HUMAN BLOOD.

This is filth.

Olamide & Lil Kesh didn’t just go beyond the line, they landed in the dustbin of history’s trashiest artists.

I will suggest @ dis time instead of making the song garner more publicity, we shld start an awareness PR dat will preach about the potential damage the song and other related ones may cause on young pple and sensitize ’em to desist from listening to all kinds of dangerous songs

Because, this actually what they do. We must never forget, that “out if the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks” blood money, money ritual is what they know, care about, and do. From which reserve do we want them to write, sing from, promote? Man gives what he has…

Olamide is a cancer to the Nigerian music industry and youths in general

This new song with lil kesh is just rubbish

What kinda lyrics is this ?

“If money no enter i go do blood money”

Are you freaking kidding me ? ? ?

Super wow !

Nah! Olamide is canceled!

— Terry (@Terrybrainz) December 20, 2018

This Olamide and Lil Kesh song is painful to listen to. A song that glorifies rituals, internet fraud and blood money. What does “If money no enter, I go do blood money” mean? That song will get across to millions of youth, that’s the worst part. There is no excuse for this.

— Isima Odeh (@IsimaOdeh) December 20, 2018

Why is the new Lil Kesh and Olamide song promoting/glorifying ritual killings/blood money?? Why must you use terrible lyrics like this??
“If money no enter i go do blood money”

There needs to be a line that you can’t cross when it comes to lyrics in music. This is one of them.

Yes I want Money but not blood money??

I want to drive tinted car but not blood one??

I want to flex but not in bad way??

We call ourselves leaders and we are the one influencing people badly

“Logo Benz” by Lil Kesh and Olamide is the worst song of the year

— ABDURRAHMAN ? ✨✨ (@AAAnationDr) December 20, 2018

We already know Lil Kesh music career was over long ago. We are only going to talk about Olamide glorifying yahoo boys and that’s a classless act.
We expected better Baddo

— Ugly Professor (@Triumphantell) December 20, 2018

Y’all that are condenming and criticizing Olamide and Lil kesh
It’s still most of you that listens to trap music that talks about coke selling and murder??
and y’all didn’t say anything about that

— JIZZY ? (@jizzyblog) December 20, 2018

This Lil Kesh and Olamide’s Logo Benz is really painful to listen to.

We might’ve given excuses for some of their previous songs but they nah this one is way over the line and deserves all the criticism it’s getting.

Here’s what my boss had to say about Lil Kesh and Olamide’s “LOGO BENZ”

What do you think?? pic.twitter.com/s48K7ZFdp9

— Micheal (@BAD_M4) December 20, 2018

So you mean it is BLOOD MONEY that lil kesh and olamide said in that ” logo Benz ” song. Wow. I thought it was EBUKA. My daze pic.twitter.com/5Vee74agd5

— Oriire (@Orire_) December 20, 2018

Thread. Pls read

1. So curiosity led me to listen to this song bcs I was keen to know what Olamide and LilKesh had to say about the blood-money-Benz trend. Sadly, they confidently promoted money rituals and the using of unsuspecting ladies’ panties for money-that is to buy Benz pic.twitter.com/K4WBicURQH

— THE DAMILOLA AKINSANYA ™️?? (@the_damilolar) December 20, 2018

2. In the song, Olamide said: “I dey pray to Jesu, k’owo wọ lé o, if money no enter I go do blood money o.”
Translated to mean: “I am praying to Jesus that money should enter, if money doesn’t enter I will do blood money.
Now this is the height!

— THE DAMILOLA AKINSANYA ™️?? (@the_damilolar) December 20, 2018

3. Lil Kesh came on next to sing: “pata ni logo Benz, a fẹ́ wa Benz,” meaning a pair of panties is the logo of Benz, we want to buy Benz.
He went on singing about how he will enjoy the money of the panties in different ways.

— THE DAMILOLA AKINSANYA ™️?? (@the_damilolar) December 20, 2018

4. Why am I concerned?

Olamide & lilkesh are big figures capable of swaying silly youths with their distorted notions. If this song gains nationwide attention, as it will, it will go a long way in giving young boys all the reasons to try get their own Benz by any means possible

The End

This is not the first time Olamide has negatively sensitized Nigerians. His song ‘Wo’ is an example. These guys ‘ve d chance 2 influence their teeming fan base with positivities but what ‘ve they done? The exact opposite! NBC shud do more than banning this song. Pls RT

Lol all this Twitter woke dummies always looking for things to be mad about, they arr just fucking entertainers music has no rules or guidelines! Music is a reflection of it’s immediate environment if you looking for role models look to your thieving and ritualist ‘Pastors’

— Lamba(lies) Police! stop ? the Lamba (@G00dandbadkarma) December 20, 2018

The people who will be influenced by Olamide and Lil Kesh will also be influenced by Nathaniel Bassey and Tope Alabi. So, if they choose to commit crime instead of serving Jesus Christ, guess whose fault it is.

— Faisal (@JajaPhD) December 21, 2018

Olamide will soon come and tell us that the aim behind the Logo Benz song with Lil kesh is to dissuade young boys from involving in rituals, same thing after being bashed by the media for releasing a song like science student that promotes drug use!

Me on twitter: Lil Kesh Ft Olamide latest song is so diabolic and demonic, they are promoting Yahoo and blood money

So this is what lil kesh meant by saying pata ni logo Benz

~ Reason why likes of Reminisce, Jhybo & Seriki will come first for me before any rapper that claims to be king of street.

Being street doesn’t make you insensitive via lyrics –

“If money no enter, I go do blood money” – Lyrics from new lil kesh & Olamide song.

TRASH!

I just listened to that Lil Kesh and Olamide song and tbh they ain’t really promoting ritual fah.
It’s just same thing we do here by jumping off radar of words without thorough comprehension… Olamide verse was talking from third person point of view of ritualist… Mini thread
