Odumodublvck and the gospel of Eziokwu
Despite initial delays because “no one’s ever ready for the truth,” his highly awaited mixtape “EZIOKWU” has left a sparkling sensation in the ears of his followers. Taking us into his world of high-life inspired melodies that he calls “okporoko rhythms,” Odumodu winner of the next-rated category in the Galaxy Music Awards as well as Rookie of the Year and Best Rap Single for Headies has received acclaim for his work.
Big Kala’s vulgar and obscene lyrics chronicle the faults of society and his own experiences in a powerful tone that draws you in until you’re completely immersed in his creation.
Songs like “Picanto,” “Declan Rice,” “Dog Eat Dog II,” and “Mc Oluomo” on “EZIOKWU” are exciting and were groundbreaking when they were released. All of his releases are inventive bangers that advanced Hip-hop in Nigeria, but his most recent, “Mc Oluomo,” almost had him canceled due to fans’ failure to understand the intended meaning.
The Mixtape includes guest features from Amaarae, Blaqbonez, Bloody Civilian, Wale, Reeplay, Teezee, PsychoYP, Ecko Miles, Zlatan, and Fireboy DML.
In “Kubolor” with Amaarae, she delivers her sweet soothing voice that is fragile and self-possessed; in “Tesla Boy” with Blaqbonez, he demonstrates his musical prowess as he delivers in this magnificent composition; In “Blood on the Dance Floor,” he seeks their musical prowess to generate some scorching verses that perfectly complement his contagious energy; this results in another superb song. His powerful voice alone at the opening of “Saint Obi” is enough to make your skin crawl, and their remarkable chemistry is on full display when they add an enticing tune to ramp up the thrill. The music is called “Strippers Anthem” and it has the searing lyrics of Psycho yp and Native boss Teezee in the “Strippers Anthem” section.
In the introduction of “Adamma Beke,” Vladimirovich acknowledges the contributions of his record labels Antiworld Gangster and Native before discussing his desire for sexual intimacy with the woman and rapping, “SHOOT AND GO HOME” is another tantalizing tune with strong sexual overtones, in which he brags about having sex with someone else’s babe after providing for her financial requirements and how he’s a big guy and nobody can harm him because God’s with him.
Oye Pumper’s ambitious worldwide musical impact will be captured on his next album, EZIOKWU the mixtape, which has a varied assortment of tunes. Big Gun believes the record will strengthen people’s spirits since God has planned it that way. This CD is a celebration of one’s individuality, one’s culture, and the many styles of okporokpo music. Eziokwu’s music incorporates a wide range of styles, from traditional rap and trap to Afrobeats, dancehall, and reggae. For Odumodublvck, “Eziokwu” is only the beginning of his ascent to higher heights, but it is an exceptional record that demonstrates his development from genesis to evolution.
