Odumodublvck Biography
Born in Lagos and raised in Abuja, Nigeria, ODUMODUBLVCK is one of the most exciting voices out of the country’s capital in the last decade. Whilst being a pioneering voice of Drill music in Nigeria, he operates under a self-defined genre he calls Okporoko Rhythms: a form of Hip-Hop that takes influences from Grime, Fela Kuti’s Afrobeat, and Progressive R&B. This musical core informs his deep, thoughtful lyricism which takes centre-stage on every track and stage he graces.
“A sweet misery, a beautiful melody,” ODUMODUBLVCK says of his emotional, autobiographical mood music. Initially only getting into music after his dreams of being a footballer were cut short by an untimely injury, he quickly realised he had a natural magnetism whenever he picked up a microphone, and hasn’t put one down since.
Since the release of his first single in 2017, ODUMODUBLVCK has been on a one-man-mission to be the author of his own story. As a proud African, and more specifically a Nigerian repping Abuja, ODUMODUBLVCK is determined to prove that artists from Africa can be whatever they want to be. Leader of his own Anti-World Gangsters & Blvck Sheep Music collectives, ODUMODUBLVCK has been a seminal voice in the growing music movement out of Nigeria’s capital, and he is now reaping the rewards for years of groundwork.
