In March 2023, Odumodublvck released “Declan Rice,” a track that catapulted him into the limelight. The song resonated widely, earning the Best Rap Single award at the 16th Headies in September 2023. Its popularity was further cemented when Spotify ranked it as the second biggest global rap song of 2023. The track gained even more attention when Premier League club Arsenal used it to unveil their signing of English midfielder Declan Rice, making it a cultural crossover moment.
Building on his momentum, Odumodublvck unveiled the “EZIOKWU” mixtape, an album that explored themes of identity and personal experiences. In December 2023, he expanded this narrative with “EZIOKWU (UNCUT),” a deluxe edition featuring seven additional tracks and collaborations with artists like Black Sherif, Nasty C, and Teni.
Throughout 2024, Odumodublvck became a sought-after collaborator, contributing to numerous projects across the industry. Amidst these features, he released “Not All That,” a solo single addressing his Headies win and endorsements from industry peers. The track’s confrontational tone served as a response to critics, asserting his position in the music scene.
