I’m Nigerian rapper Odumodublvck continues to shine as he bags the prestigious 2024 Leadership ‘Artiste of the Year’ award — a well-deserved recognition of his phenomenal run over the past year.
The rapper accepted the honor in style, showing up with his mother by his side, a powerful nod to the role family has played in his rise to stardom.
Odumodublvck’s breakout moment came in March 2023 with the release of “Declan Rice”, a smash hit that instantly resonated across Nigeria and beyond. The track didn’t just dominate the charts — it made history.
In September 2023, “Declan Rice” won Best Rap Single at the 16th Headies Awards, further solidifying his place as a powerhouse in Nigerian rap. But the accolades didn’t stop there. Global streaming giant Spotify ranked the song as the second biggest global rap track of 2023, making it one of the most impactful African rap songs ever released.
The track’s influence crossed into sports when Premier League club Arsenal used it to unveil their signing of English midfielder Declan Rice, turning the song into a global pop culture moment.
With his unique blend of gritty storytelling and genre-bending sound, Odumodublvck is not just making music — he’s rewriting the narrative for Nigerian rap on a global scale.
