Odumodublvck has surprised many Nigerians by revealing the reason behind his decision to turn down an offer to meet with singer Davido. He clarified that his decision was driven by the observation that Davido’s fanbase primarily consists of Afrobeats enthusiasts, and he believed that his music might not resonate with them.
Instead, Odumodublvck opted to concentrate on collaborating with artists who shared his artistic vision. He underscored the importance of figures like Teezee, BOJ, and Sholzy in gaining access to the UK music market, which closely aligned with his sound and style.
Recognizing the potential for international success, Odumodublvck made a deliberate choice to work with these artists and pursue his career in the UK music scene, where he believed his music would find a more receptive audience.
He said; “In 2019, someone said we should go to Lagos and meet Davido. But I was like, ‘What will Davido do for me?’ Even if Davido takes me to America and puts me on stage and I am rapping my stuff, his fans will not understand because they are Afrobeats fans.
“But these guys: Teezee, BOJ, and Sholz, are the pipeline to the UK market. And those are the closest guys I sound like internationally. So why do not I follow that route to get to wherever I want to get to?
“I was like, I do not need Davido for anything now. Let me follow people who align with my vision. And that was how we just came together and we are here now. Number one in the country against all odds.”
