In a bold statement on Facebook, DJ Kandeke, manager of Zambian music sensation Yo Maps, made it clear that disrespect toward the artist or his brand Olios will not be tolerated.
Kandeke emphasized the significant investment of both money and effort that has gone into developing Olios, calling it a brand that demands respect. He warned that anyone seeking attention by targeting the brand or Yo Maps personally will face consequences.
“Let me make one thing clear❗️If you attack my family or my brand, ‘Olios’, I will respond. Age is irrelevant, old man 👴. I will defend what matters most to me,” DJ Kandeke wrote, emphasizing the seriousness of his warning.
The post reflects the modern era of personal branding in the music industry, where public figures are increasingly protective of their image and intellectual property. Kandeke’s statement serves as a reminder that attacks on artists or their brands are not just online provocations—they are taken seriously and defended aggressively.
With Olios representing years of work and strategic growth, DJ Kandeke’s warning underscores the stakes involved in building a music brand in 2025, highlighting the necessity of respect and professionalism in Zambian music.
As Yo Maps continues to expand his influence and Olios strengthens its footprint, fans and critics alike are reminded: disrespect is not an option
