Nigerian rap star, Olamide has finally addressed one of the most common assumptions about him — that he’s shy.
Speaking in a recent chat on Ada’s Room, Olamide said people often misunderstand his personality.
“One thing I wish people could understand about me is I am not shy, I am just laid back,” he explained.
When the host asked what the difference was, Olamide broke it down clearly:
“Shy is when you don’t have the confidence or charisma to stand people, look them in the eye or hold conversations. But being laid back is you just don’t want to be bothered. People think I am shy but I am not.”
The rapper made it clear that he simply prefers his space — not because he lacks confidence, but because he doesn’t like unnecessary noise around him.
