Tochukwu Ojogwu, a rising hip-hop artist from Nigeria widely known as Odumodublvck, has opened up about the powerful role Grammy award-winning singer Wizkid played in signaling his future success.

In an interview on the latest episode of the Body & Soul podcast, hosted by renowned singer Joeboy, the talented artist recounted a significant moment in his life. Odumodublvck revealed that he had recently been discharged from the hospital following a major surgery in 2022 when his friends informed him that Wizkid had co-signed his song "Picanto," featuring Zlatan Ibile.

The news of Wizkid sharing his song on social media served as a divine sign for Odumodublvck, a signal from God that he was destined for greatness in the music industry. It became a pivotal moment that fueled his determination and belief in his talent.

He said, “You can hear the way I’m talking? It’s not because of these [teeth] grills, it’s because I did one operation [surgery]. I almost died but God kept me here right now. And the fact that God saved me, everything that was happening after that was not surprising.

“Ask my guys, I was eating baby food for two weeks. Apart from that, there were like sixteen stitches in my mouth, bro. The day Wizkid posted my stuff was the day I was being discharged from hospital.

“I woke up in the morning, I saw a message at 7 am, I saw Machala…And I checked my Instagram, everybody was sending me that Wizkid posted ‘Picanto’. And that was like, the first thing that God used to tell me that, yo, I’m with you, everything that is going to be happening from here onwards, it’s going to be more than what eyes have seen, ears have heard.”

The 'Declan Rice' crooner expressed his gratitude for Wizkid's support, acknowledging the impact it had on his career trajectory.
