After enlisting “All Talk” lyricist and fellow DMV native 3ohBlack for “New Keys,” Riverdale (PG County) rapper Olumide connects with in-house producer Dizzee Beats for “Element” via PGN Records / United Masters. The kind of song you’d hear right after a Power cut scene, when Ghost is soaking in the spoils of his hustle; “Element” is the soundtrack to a righteous return.
“This is that record you play when you need to get back in THAT MODE. That feeling. Motivational, it’s outside, it’s a chant. When I listen to this single I think elegance, leveling up, boss can’t tell me nothing mode,” the now Brooklyn resident reveals in a press statement.
Olumide grew up in Maryland, where he casually began to make music with his brother as a high school student. His talent blossomed quickly, and soon, it became apparent that he was destined for bigger things. Olumide began performing in front of any audience that would have him, rapidly upgrading to multiple appearances at Baltimore Soundstage.
Easily one of the most promising artists to emerge from the DMV, Olumide officially secured his spot sonically with the release of #BeenDope (Mixtape), which currently boasts millions of streams. Solidifying himself on the stage alongside Hip-Hop heavyweights like Curren$y and A Boogie wit da Hoodie as well as in the booth with other local entertainers like WillThaRapper and Ciscero, Olumide is a man on a mission, refining his craft and further developing his impressive lyrical abilities.
