Odumodublvck Questions Davido’s Label Choice for Upcoming Album '5ive': "You Like Wahala"

  • Odumodublvck has publicly advised Davido against releasing his upcoming album 5ive under the 30BG label, suggesting a different direction
  • He recommended that the album should instead be dropped under Kcee and E-Money’s Five Star Music label for a better fit
  • The sarcastic post, intended as a compliment, triggered varied reactions among Nigerian fans, with some misunderstanding the tone

Nigerian rapper Tochukwu Ojogwu, popularly known as Odumodublvck, has set tongues wagging with a bold statement about Davido’s highly anticipated album, 5ive.

On March 27, 2025, Odumodublvck took to X (formerly Twitter) to share his thoughts, tagging Davido directly.

He stated that while he trusts Davido’s vision, he believes 5ive would be better suited for Kcee and E-Money’s Five Star Music label rather than being released under Davido’s 30BG label.

The meaning of Odumodublvck’s playful Jab at Davido

Odumodublvck’s suggestion wasn’t a diss but a witty compliment, tying the album’s title, 5ive, to the idea of a “five-star” release under Kcee and E-Money’s label.

The sarcasm, however, didn’t land with everyone, as some fans began debating 30BG’s role in the industry.
