Oladapo Olaitan Olaonipekun also known as Dagrin aka Baracko Grin was a hardcore Rapper and Entertainer that would be remembered for long in the Industry. His songs touch upon pride, ethnicity, club mix tapes and rhymes that distinguished him from other rappers in the country.
In 2010 he was nominated for the Nigerian Entertainment Awards for Best Album (C.E.O.), Hottest Single "Kondo", Best Rap Act and Best Collaboration with vocals. His album C.E.O. (Chief executive Omota English: Chief Executive Gangster) won the Hip hop World Award 2010 for best rap album. From it came the singles "Pon Pon Pon", and "Kondo"
He died at 6:00pm on Thursday April 22 – exactly eight days after he was involved in a ghastly accident in front of Alakara Police station, off Agege motor road, Mushin, Lagos.
He survived a serious head injury, as a result of the crash.
