‘Nobody paved the way for Wizkid or Burna Boy’ – Odumodublvck
Nigerian rapper Tochukwu Ojogwu, popularly known as Odumodublvck, has asserted that no musician paved the way for Wizkid, Burna Boy, or any artist.
Recall that veteran singer Eedris Abdulkareem had claimed in a recent podcast interview that he paved the way for Davido, Burna Boy, Wizkid, and other Nigerian artists.
However, reacting, Odumodublvck said such a statement is an attempt to claim “God’s glory.”
He said it was the hard work and determination of Wizkid and Burna Boy that took them to where they are today.
The ‘Declan Rice’ crooner said artists can only inspire each other, but maintained that only God can pave the way to success.
On his X handle, he wrote: “Everybody dey claim pave the way. Everybody trynna claim God’s glory. None of you n*ggas paved the way for no one.
“Nobody paved the way for Wizkid or Burna [Boy]. They hustled. All of us get our individual struggles and realities.
“Inspired? Yes. Paved the way? That’s God.
No human being in the history of music has paved the way for Odumodublvck. That’s God. So tomorrow make no OG come dey talk say e paved way for me, cause bros, you were not there when I was in the deng! So keep quiet sir.”
Popular skit maker and singer, Lawal Michael Nasiru Bolaji, aka Nasboi, has faulted Wizkid for shading ace music executive, Don Jazzy.
Appearing on the Bahd And Boujee Podcast, co-hosted by reality star Tolanibaj and actress Moet Abebe, the skit maker berated Wizkid for throwing a jab at Don Jazzy during his recent social media outburst.
Nasboi said, “Wizkid was wrong for talking to Don Jazzy that way. Before now, Wizkid used to respect Don Jazzy… You remember Wizkid vs Linda Ikeji?”
Tolanibaj inferred: “He [Wizkid] is a troll. We know that.”
Wizkid set social media platform, X on fire recently after shading Don Jazzy and engaging in a heated exchange with Davido.
The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that album featured some heavyweights across different countries in the world like Nigeria’s Asake and Seyi Vibes, America’s Giveon and Coco Jones, and Brazil’s Anitta, amongst others.
Starr is a Nigerian singer and songwriter, who began a fashion career at the age of 16 with Quove Model Management before deciding to pursue a career in music.
After covering several songs by popular artists on Instagram, she posted her first original song on her page in December 2019.
The posting brought her to the attention of record executive Don Jazzy, who later signed her to his record label Marvin Record.
The singer later achieved mainstream international recognition in 2022, with the released of her song “Rush”.
The song charted in several territories, including Switzerland, Ireland and the United Kingdom, where it peaked at number 24.
The song earned Starr her first nomination at the 66th Annual Grammy Awards for Best African Music Performance.
With the song, Starr became the youngest African Female Artist to surpass 100 Million views on a single video on YouTube, and also the first to do so within five months.
Nigerian actor and singer, Adams Kehinde, popularly known as Lege Miami, has said the president’s son, Seyi Tinubu, has offered warring Afrobeats stars, Wizkid and Davido.
Wizkid and Davido were recently engaged in a fierce social media war on X.
Reacting, Lege Miami cautioned the duo to put themselves in order, saying he has reported the issue to Seyi Tinubu.
Speaking in a video message shared via his Instagram account, the actor said Tinubu has offered to reconcile Wizkid and Davido in the United Kingdom.
He said, “Wizkid and Davido both of you need to take time. I have reported you guys to Seyi Tinubu, he said he’ll fly to UK in three days to settle the fight.”
Efforts to reconcile Wizkid and Davido over the years have proved abortive, as the duo always rekindles their beef after every reconciliation.
