Odumodublvck Speaks on Friendship With Rema Burna Boy and Seyi Tinubu
Nigerian rapper Tochukwu Ojogwu, better known as Odumodublvck, has opened up about his friendships in the music industry and beyond. During a chat on the Afrobeats Podcast with Adesope, he shared details about the people he considers close, including Rema, Burna Boy, and Seyi Tinubu.
According to Odumodublvck, Rema is one of his realest friends in the industry. He also addressed his friendship with Seyi Tinubu, the son of Nigeria’s president, explaining that their bond has nothing to do with politics. He made it clear that Seyi supports him purely as a fan of his music, not for any political reason.
“Seyi Tinubu is my friend, regardless of his father being the president or people criticizing him,” he said. “When he invited me over for dinner, it wasn’t because he wanted me to support his dad.
It was because he genuinely likes my music. I’m a street boy—Seyi has nothing to gain from me. He’s just my guy, no matter what society says.”
The rapper also spoke about his deep admiration for Burna Boy and how he always felt a spiritual connection with him. Before they even met in real life, Odumodublvck had a dream where they were both eating pounded yam together.
When they finally met, Burna Boy revealed that it was the first time he had eaten pounded yam in two years, making the moment even more surreal for Odumodublvck.
“People think I just talk for the sake of it,” he added. “They don’t understand—this thing is real. I say what I mean. Even when I talk about Jesus, it’s because I’m a true believer. Anything I declare on earth, I believe is bound in heaven too, as long as it’s in line with God’s will.”
The long-awaited trial in the murder case of legendary rapper Tupac Shakur has reached a major development, with Duane “Keffe D” Davis sentenced to 40 years to life in prison on October 13, 2026.
Davis was convicted of first-degree murder in August 2026 for his role in orchestrating the 1996 killing. Tupac was shot in a drive-by attack in Las Vegas on September 7, 1996, and died six days later.
During the sentencing, the judge addressed Davis, rejecting his claims that he had changed his life and moved on from his past. “Mr. Davis, for three years, I’ve heard you say some variation of the same thing to law enforcement, [in interviews], in your book, and it’s something like, ‘Yeah, I was involved in this, but I’m different. I’ve moved on. I got out of Compton. I’m a grandfather now.’ I’m here to tell you that’s not how this works,” the judge said.
She continued “You don’t get to take a man from his family. You don’t get to take his very life, his whole future from him, and just walk away from it. Especially when that man is Tupac Shakur.
“The world never forgot about him and his death, and neither did Las Vegas. It took us 30 years, but at this time, you are going to face justice for what you did on Sept. 7, 1996.”
Nollywood actor Timini Egbuson has reflected on how his perception of YouTube movies has changed over the years. The actor recalled that there was a time when he looked down on movies released on YouTube.
However, he now appreciates the opportunities they have provided for his career and joked that he might have struggled financially if he had continued to dismiss them.
Sharing his thoughts in a post on X, Egbuson wrote “Can’t believe I was looking down on YouTube movies at some point. Hunger go don kpai me by now.”
Nigerian singer Timi Dakolo has advised young people who are still living with their parents not to rush into moving out because of peer pressure.
The singer encouraged young people to focus on their personal circumstances rather than compare their lives with those of others. He noted that there is no need to leave their parents’ homes simply because they want to feel independent.
Sharing his advice, Dakolo said “No hurry, leave your papa house because of peer pressure. Forget all that, ‘I don’t have my freedom here.’”
