According to reports, Odumodublvck claimed on a recent podcast that Tems and Ayra Starr had done more for the Nigerian music industry than Afrobeat pioneer Fela Anikulapo-Kuti and Afrobeats megastars Wizkid and Burna Boy.
According to him, becoming a successful female artist is the most difficult profession in the world. His claim sparked outrage.
Reacting to the backlash, Odumodublvck wrote via X: “[laughing and rocket emojis] Kalaaaa [his nickname] – Industry machine,” eulogising himself and seemingly mocking his trolls.
Quoting the post, Wizkid wrote, “Kala no lie [suggesting Odumodublvck’s claims on the podcast weren’t false].”
An X user then wrote under Wizkid’s post: “So Ayra Starr and Tems are better than you. I’m glad you used your mouth to say Odumodu is not lying.”
Wizkid replied, “I see u weren’t raised by a good woman and love at home. Ayra Star and Tems are amazing.”
