Rapper Odumodublvck sparks controversy with a social media post about Davido’s upcoming album, leading to mixed reactions from fans.
His remark, meant as sarcasm, was misunderstood by some fans, leading to mixed reactions online.
Odumodublvck’s post causes a stir
On his X (formerly Twitter) handle, Odumodublvck made a statement directed at Davido, the leader of the 30 Billion Gang (30BG). He suggested that Davido should not release his upcoming album, 5ive, under his own record label, Davido Music Worldwide (DMW). Instead, he jokingly proposed that it should be released under 5ive Star Music, the label owned by Kcee and E-Money.
He wrote:
“Davido, I trust your vision and all. But this album is not meant to be released under 30BG. This album is meant to drop under Kcee and E-Money. I rest my case.”
His comment was meant as a playful way of praising the album, implying it was a “five-star” project. However, some fans did not catch the sarcasm and reacted negatively.
Fans react: Sarcasm or insult?
Odumodublvck’s post quickly went viral, sparking debates among fans. Some saw it as an insult to Davido, suggesting that the rapper was downplaying his achievements. Others, however, understood the humor and defended him.
One fan tweeted, “Odumodublvck was obviously joking. People love to overreact.” Another responded, “Whether he was joking or not, it sounded disrespectful.”
Despite the backlash, Odumodublvck has not responded to the criticism. He has neither clarified his statement nor engaged with fans on the matter.
Davido’s 5ive album set for April release
While the debate continues, anticipation for Davido’s fifth studio album, 5ive, is growing. The project is set for release in April under DMW and Sony Music.
So far, three singles from the album have been released:
- Awuke – featuring YG Marley, grandson of reggae icon Bob Marley.
- Funds – featuring Odumodublvck and Chike.
- Be There Still – a song that showcases Davido’s signature emotional style.
Each track has been well received, further increasing excitement for the full album.
Davido remains silent on controversy
Despite the online drama, Davido has not addressed Odumodublvck’s post. He continues to focus on promoting 5ive and engaging with fans ahead of the album’s release.
This is not the first time a social media post has caused a misunderstanding among music lovers. Sarcasm can often be misinterpreted in text, especially in an industry where words carry significant weight.
The hype around 5ive continues
With or without controversy, Davido’s upcoming album is already one of the most talked-about projects of the year. The social media buzz surrounding 5ive—whether positive or negative—has only added to the hype.
As fans wait for the album’s release, one thing is clear: Davido remains a dominant force in the Nigerian music industry. Whether through music or social media debates, he continues to capture the spotlight.
