Nigerian rapper, Tochukwu Gbubemi Ojogwu, popularly known as Odumodublvck has hailed his female colleagues Ayra Starr and Tems for making it to the music industry despite the challenges female genders face in industry.
The Big Kala as usually called, gave flowers to the ladies during a recent interview on a podcast with Madam Joyce.
Odumodublvck recalled a moment when he saw Tems during a flight to London and acknowledged her and Ayra Starr’s success.
He began, “There was a time I was coming to London with Tems’ manager, we were on the same flight, So I told Tems ‘big ups, you did it! What you and Ayra Starr have done is bigger than anything Wizkid has done or what Burna Boy has done. Quote me anywhere.
“It is bigger than anything Fela has done because as a female artist out of every 10 show promoters, five want to have sex with you. Out of 10 producers, five want to fuck you and out of 10 artistes you look up to or the people you want to help you, they want to knack you.
“I can’t imagine being a babe and being in that situation, do you understand? So imagine after dodging all those things you still made good music,”
He continued, “The number one hardest job in this world is being a woman, that’s the hardest job ever. Then the second one is being an artist because there are over like 100 million artistes and like 60,000 songs are dropped every day, so why should they listen to yours? There’s no guaranteed payment as an artist, you have to make it for people to pay you. It took me five or six years to get my first good check so imagine now being a babe and being an artist and you make it.”
