From laying bricks to dropping hits, Oloba Larry is building a musical empire on a foundation of pure, unshakable grit.
In the heart of Osun State, amidst the rhythmic scraping of trowels against stone, a new sound is rising. Meet Oloba Larry, a man who understands that building a dream requires the same precision and patience as laying a brick wall. By day, he is a dedicated mason, following in the footsteps of his father. By night, he is a visionary artist crafting lyrics that he hopes will one day echo across global stadiums.
Larry’s journey hasn’t been a walk down a red carpet; it’s been a climb up a steep ladder. Growing up in a humble home, he learned the value of hard work early. “My story is long and hard”, Larry shares with a grounded sincerity. “My father was a brick mason; I also do the same work. I am getting more experience, trying to make a better way”.
This “better way” found a catalyst when his friend, Zumaboy, introduced him to BLEUBOARD Entertainment. It was the spark that turned his private poetry into public performance. However, the universe tested his resolve immediately. On the very day he released his debut single—a track he describes as a “banger”—disaster struck. He was robbed of his phone, his primary connection to his burgeoning fanbase. The loss was devastating, leading to a period of struggle before he could find his footing again. But like the structures he builds, Larry is reinforced with steel.
The transition from the quiet labor of masonry to the blinding lights of the stage wasn’t easy. Larry recalls his first performance with a laugh, remembering the paralyzing stage fright.
“I was so shy. I thought, How can I stand in front of all these people?” But as the music started, the fear faded. He didn’t just perform; he “wowed” the crowd, proving to himself that he belonged under the lights just as much as he belonged on a construction site.
Inspired by the rise of Balloranking, Larry sees his current struggle as the necessary “curing” process of a masterpiece. He has folders full of lyrics—stories of poverty, hope, and ambition—waiting for the financial breakthrough needed to bring them to life in the studio.
Larry’s vision of the future is crystal clear: he sees himself traveling the world, a global celebrity representing the strength of his Osun roots. His advice to those still standing in the shadows of their own dreams is simple yet profound: Ignore the noise.
“Don’t hear what people are saying about you or your dreams”, he insists. To Oloba Larry, people’s opinions are just dust on the construction site—you brush them off and keep building.
With God on his side and a trowel in one hand and a microphone in the other, Larry is proof that it doesn’t matter where you start; what matters is the height of the vision you’re building toward.
