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.
Tochukwu Ojogwu, the Nigerian rapper, 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.”
