The rapper used his new track, Iba Paris 26, to openly admit he was wrong and to express regret over how their journey ended.
Nigerian rapper Oladips has finally made peace with his former label boss, Reminisce, after years of public disputes, harsh lyrics and strained relations in the music industry.
The rapper used his new track, Iba Paris 26, to openly admit he was wrong and to express regret over how their journey ended.
He revealed that he had tried several times in the past to reach Reminisce in private but was not able to get through, so he decided to use music as the only way to express himself and seek peace.
“I tried to make contact severally but it didn’t work. This is me saying it openly,” Oladips said in the track.
Recall that Oladips started his early career under LRR/EDGE Records, owned by Reminisce.
Things appeared smooth at first, but the relationship later broke down.
In 2019, Oladips went public with complaints that life was tough for him while still signed to the label, despite having songs that were doing well.
He said attempts to leave the label were blocked, and from there, the fallout grew worse.
The situation soon moved into the open through interviews, music, and social media posts.
Oladips removed all traces of the label from his online pages and released songs that many listeners saw as messages aimed at Reminisce.
Meanwhile, Reminisce avoided public drama, but fans still sensed tension.
In 2022, fresh interest in the matter returned after some lyrics from Reminisce were believed to be aimed at former signees.
Oladips then replied through music, and the matter continued to drag on, becoming one of the longest-running disputes in Nigerian hip-hop.
Oladips has also said over the years that the feud affected his place in the industry and shaped how other artistes related with him.
However, in his new release, Oladips appears calmer and more reflective.
He shared that growth, life lessons and personal battles have changed how he sees the past, and he now prefers peace over ongoing conflict.
