New video: Olusho - Lati Ebute Metta

Olusho, whose real name is Lanre Bakare was born in Lagos, Nigeria. As a young lad born and raised in Ebute Metta, Olusho played the piano as a child, but didn’t take music seriously until he was in his teenage years. He later joined a band and began performing at churches and other music shows.

Olusho has cited successful rappers like late Dagrin, Kendrick Lamar as musical influences. He also has an extensive library of different rap and hip hop songs where he learns both classic and latest styles.
