Olamide Announces YBNL Reunion Concert as Fans Anticipate Star-Studded Night

Nigerian rapper and music executive Olamide is bringing back the YBNL family, and fans have a major reason to get excited. The music star has announced a reunion concert featuring some of the biggest artistes associated with his record label, YBNL Nation.

Tagged YBNL: The Reunion, the concert is scheduled for December 18, 2026, at Oasis Ground, Coastal Road, Victoria Island, Lagos, as part of Future Fest 2026.

The announced lineup features Olamide alongside Adekunle Gold, Lil Kesh, Fireboy DML, Young Jonn, music producer Pheelz and DJ Enimoney.

The announcement, shared in a video on Olamide’s Instagram page, has generated excitement among fans eager to see the artistes reunite on one stage.

Why YBNL’s Reunion Matters

Founded by Olamide in 2012, YBNL Nation, meaning Yahoo Boy No Laptop, has played an important role in shaping contemporary Nigerian music.

Over the years, the label has provided a platform for emerging talents who have gone on to establish successful careers in Afrobeats and beyond.

Adekunle Gold gained recognition through songs such as Sade, while Lil Kesh became popular with hit records including Shoki and Efejoku.

Fireboy DML also rose to prominence through YBNL with songs such as Jealous, while Young Jonn and Pheelz contributed significantly to the label’s sound through their production work before building careers as recording artistes.

The reunion therefore represents more than another concert. It celebrates the music, collaborations and careers that helped establish YBNL as one of Nigeria’s influential music labels.

Fans Hope for More Surprises

Although the announced lineup already features several familiar faces, fans may also be hoping for surprise appearances from other former YBNL stars.

One name that could generate particular excitement is Asake, who previously enjoyed major success under the label before pursuing an independent career. However, he has not been included in the announced lineup, and no surprise appearance has been confirmed.

For longtime YBNL supporters, the opportunity to hear some of the label’s memorable songs performed live again is part of the excitement.

With different generations of artistes expected to share the stage, YBNL: The Reunion could become one of the memorable Nigerian music events of December 2026.

As the concert date approaches, fans will be watching for further announcements about performances and ticket arrangements.
