A few hours after the release of ‘Logo Benz,’ by Lil Kesh featuring Olamide, some fans were displeased and some outright disgusted at the innuendo that money ritual is actually part of ‘hustling.’

Accusations have been made at the artist for glorifying this absurd and bizarre form of money making and are of the opinion that it has become some sort of trademark for Olamide especially.

With his track “Story for the Gods” which seems to justify rape and then his track “Science Student” which glamourised the use of drugs although he made an attempt to save face by making an inspiration video.

And now with his feature in “Logo Benz” which seems to count ritual killing as a somewhat legitimate form of earning a living.

“For Olamide it seems to be a pattern of promoting perversity under the guise of “creating awareness.” He has responded to the accusation via Twitter: “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.”

This attention comes at a very bad time when he is set to headline a concert in a few days and some people are already crying for the show’s boycott.

If he continues in this pattern, only time will tell what other vice he will ‘create awareness’ about.
