In other news, OdumoduBlvck, a Nigerian rapper, has made public his intention to become the Wizkid of rap in Nigeria.He added that, while he has the potential to perform core hip-hop similar to American icon Eminem, he has decided not to.
He believes that Nigerians do not comprehend hip-hop. OdumoduBlvck presented his thoughts during a recent podcast interview. He feels that Nigerians like melodious music, therefore he opted to dumb down his rap for commercial success.
He mentioned that his ambition is to make Nigerian rap entertaining, in the same way that Wizkid transformed R&B in Nigeria.
According to him, while some Nigerian singers have explored pure rap, they have failed to generate essential enthusiasm among fans.
He stated:
“Some Nigerians did pure rap but they didn’t make it exciting for people to gravitate towards it.
“People said my rap sounds like nursery school rhymes. I dumbed it down so I can sell these records, so you don’t have to think twice. When you listen to my rap, if you understand the lingo you get it once. You don’t have to go to any dictionary.
“It’s not hard core rap. It’s easy. I’ve made it exciting. Just like Wizkid, I want to make my rap sweet and exciting.
“I can rap like Eminem and all these guys but bro where I come from nobody is gonna listen to that stuff. They don’t understand it.”
