This week, my team and I are finally wrapping up my 4th studio project, titled “Yeah, ight.” Not too much on the title. We all belly-laughed at first, but now that we are almost complete, the title is only right. This album is such a flex.
It is the first piece of work I have made since becoming a mother. It is the first piece of art that I can stand by and say “Wow. this healed me just as much as it broke me.”
People forget that artists are humans too. We have kids, we get our hearts broken, we lose faith in our gifts, we try to navigate life through the lenses of our own pain and others in order to create “something that sticks.” It’s pretty exhausting.
Olawumi never went anywhere. I just needed space, time, and grace. This is also, most importantly, the first album dedicated to my Son, Cameron.
This stuff takes time guys. And I am absolutely taking mine.
Content, singles, photoshoots, soon. I promise.
Just know that I am alive. Thriving. Singing. Praying.

What is motherhood?

Is it being able to do a million things in one day while still keeping a smile on your face? Or is it the nights where you finally fall apart once your little one is asleep because you’re exhausted?

Last Mother’s Day was my first one ever. My baby couldn’t even walk yet. My heart and mind were all over the place, but I’ll never forget how we spent it. I rented us a nice car, got us a hotel room, ordered us some pounded yam and stew (sorry mom 😭), and held him close all night. He was so little, but so happy to be there. It felt like he somehow knew I needed it to just be us. Somehow he knew I needed him more than anything.

I remember thinking, “I never want this to end.”

Now I sit here thinking about how strong motherhood has forced me to become. This beautiful little boy is my everything. The way he runs into my arms after school, jumps into cuddles first thing in the morning, or how we bed-rot on Saturdays watching his favorite shows — every moment with him feels meaningful. He’s silly, strong, observant, kind, and always making sure that I am okay. I couldn’t ask for more.

Watching him grow into this little person with big feelings and such a gentle heart has been the most rewarding part of my life. I’m still in awe that I created him. I am proud of him every single day and I’m so honored to be his mommy.

Motherhood is strength. It’s patience. It’s messy, exhausting, spiritual, hilarious, and deeply personal. Some days you genuinely don’t know if you have anything left in you, and other days you surprise yourself with everything you managed to carry in just 24 hours.

Blessed is an understatement. Love is an understatement.

I didn’t choose you, Cameron Adebayo. Thank you for choosing me. And thank you God for trusting me with you. You blessed me with the bestest friend I have ever had. My twin. 🥹

I, am motherhood. 💎

Happy Mother’s Day to all the incredible mothers doing their best every single day. May God continue to bless you all. 💐 by @olawumiii

I turn 33 today. Long, boring captions are outdated, right? So let’s cut the fluff. I am strong, thankful, grateful, thriving, beautiful and blessed. I birthed a healthy, happy baby boy - so I am riddled in PURPOSE now and my mind has never been clearer, my body has never looked better, my voice has never sounded stronger, and my faith has never been more powerful. My heart is whole, and protected, as everything I do flows from it. My spirit is intact. My feet, grounded. God promised me mercy and grace. He promised me a peace I had never seen before. The mask came off this year. I can breathe easy, finally. To God be the glory. Trust me, y’all haven’t seen anything yet. Warmed up is an understatement. 😏💎 #happybirthdayola #happybdaytome #aquarius #morelife #givethanks 🎈 by @olawumiii

I want to start this off by saying thank you to the Most High. He held my hand throughout my pregnancy after doctors told me I couldn’t go full term. God had different plans — He knew I needed you, because I do. On October 21, 2024 at 2:19am, I gave birth to the most beautiful baby boy I’ve ever laid eyes on. I remember how scared I was, even throwing up, thinking I wasn’t ready. But I got ready. And I stayed ready. Ọmọ mi kùnrin, you are the embodiment of my heart and peace in human form.

As an artist, I thought giving myself a year to write this caption would give me more words to describe how you’ve saved and completed my life… how motherhood was my way out of the darkness. But words simply aren’t enough. “A year, already?” It doesn’t feel real. You’re walking, running, talking, laughing at my silly jokes, dancing and clapping when I sing. The love I sought from the world all this time has been coming straight from me.

Those nine months rocked my world, and it is something only the two of us will ever truly remember. Every kick, every jump, every moment reminded me you were right there with me. You’ve been bringing me joy for so long. You hold me close at night because you remember — mommy is your safe place. Our hearts beat rhythmically and in sync, and it never stops. You will always be protected, supported, and loved by me. Your Ìyá.

Who would’ve guessed I’d meet my absolute best friend on that cold October morning? My pumpkin pie. My twin. My bubba. My light. My reason to be. You’ve made motherhood the most beautiful thing about me. You are smart, kind, funny, beautiful, powerful — all at just 1 year old. You will move mountains. You are a King already.

Happy 1st Birthday, Cameron Adebayo. 💙 To many more years filled with love and joy. Mommy loves you with every fiber of her being.

Thank you to everyone for your love and support this year — the most memorable year of my life. Thank you God for getting us this far, this good, this amazing. Sí ìfẹ́ àti ayé rere! by @olawumiii

We had to celebrate my baby’s birthday the right way! Surrounded with love, family, food and of course Peppa pig! We had a blast! Community is so important. Having the right people in our lives has made this first year as beautiful as it has been. I’m so proud of everyone involved in my son’s life. I am so proud of my beautiful son. I love you all so so much. Everyone is so dedicated to making sure he is always happy and safe. 💙 I also want to thank the Most High for making this happen. Happy Birthday Cammy! Many more to come! 🎂 Mommy loves you! 💙 taken in Majestic Smoothie and Juice Bar by @olawumiii

Today, my heart in human form, my purpose, my passion, the true completion of my life turns 1 year old. 1 whole year as a mommy! 1 whole year of feeling unconditional love ❤️
The party hasn’t even begun yet, so stand by! Y’all know how I do it up for the people I love and need the most. 🥰

Happy Birthday, Cameron. My moody baby boy. My everything. I love you more than I could ever imagine or express.
Just some dope art for you all until the REAL magic happens ☺️
All love to the artist for this thoughtful and inspiring piece of art. My first piece of published art in collaboration with the most beautiful piece of art I ever made. Ain’t that something? (The photos we used for this are LMFAO) 😂
Thank you, Lord. I owe you a lot. by @olawumiii
