After years of tension, Nigerian rap sensation Oladips has extended an olive branch to his former mentor, Reminisce, marking a turning point in their once-bitter feud.
The reconciliation came through Oladips’ latest single, Iba Paris 26, where he publicly acknowledged his past mistakes and sought closure on their fractured relationship.
Admitting previous attempts to reconnect privately had failed, the artist chose music as his final avenue for peacemaking.
“I reached out multiple times without success—now I’m saying it for the world to hear,” he confessed in the emotional track.

Their professional bond began when Oladips signed with Reminisce’s LRR/EDGE Records early in his career.
What started as a promising partnership gradually deteriorated, culminating in Oladips’ 2019 public outcry about restrictive contract terms despite his charting singles.
When exit negotiations stalled, the rift deepened through diss tracks, deleted label affiliations from social media, and perceived lyrical jabs from both sides.
While Reminisce maintained his signature stoicism, industry observers noted the prolonged tension—especially after 2022 verses interpreted as targeting former protégés.
Oladips later acknowledged the feud’s collateral damage, admitting it impacted his industry relationships and career trajectory.
The rapper’s latest musical offering signals personal evolution, framing their conflict through the lens of maturity and hard-won wisdom.
His introspective lyrics suggest newfound clarity, prioritizing reconciliation over lingering resentment in Nigeria’s hip-hop history books.
