Wizkid (Ayodeji Balogun) says he agrees with Odumodublvck that female Afrobeats purveyors Tems and Ayra Starr have done better their male counterparts, including himself.
Odumodublvck claimed on a recent podcast that Tems and Ayra Starr have done more for the Nigerian music industry than Afrobeat pioneer, Fela Anikulapo-Kuti, and Afrobeats stars Wizkid and Burna Boy, even though both are Grammy winners.
In his view, being a successful female artiste is the hardest job in the world.
Odumodublvck’s assertion earned him backlash from some netizens on X (Twitter).
Reacting to the bashing, Odumodublvck wrote on X: “[laughing and rocket emojis] Kalaaaa [his nickname] – Industry machine,” eulogising himself and mocking his trolls.
Quoting the post, Wizkid wrote: “Kala no lie [meaning Odumodublvck’s claims on the podcast weren’t false].”
Another X user 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.”
