Recall that the singer fooled the whole internet after pretending to have passed away from an undisclosed ailment in a bid to promote his new album.
On November 14, a video of the rapper being rushed to the hospital was shared online and stirred panic among music lovers on social media.
Few hours later, his management went online to release a statement where they announced the sad news of his ‘passing’.
The statement reads,
“We are saddened to inform the general public that Oladipupo Olabode Oladimeji aka OLADIPS has passed away yesterday
Nov’14th Tuesday evening, at exactly 10:14pm.We are still in shock as we speak!

However, things took an unexpected twist when it was later discovered that the singer was not dead, and it was all a ploy to promote his new project.
This stirred an uproar on social media, with many criticizing him for going to that length and falsifying his own death to trend.
Well, a week after the drama, the rapper has gone online to share a video of himself to confirm that he is indeed still alive and not dead.
In the video, the 28-year-old rapper, who had evidently shaved off his dreadlocks, was seen sitting outside his house while his mother was pacing around.
“Orisha bi iya osi. Proof of life,” he wrote.

The video has sparked mixed reactions on social media, with some lambasting him for his action, while others empathized with him.
