Nigerian hip-hop artiste, Tochukwu Ojogwu, popularly known as Odumodublvck, has recounted how his music career blew up while in a hospital bed.
Naija News reports that Odumodublvck during an interview on the latest episode of the Body & Soul podcast hosted by singer, Joeboy, said God used Grammy award-winning singer, Wizkid to make him a star.
The ‘Declan Rice’ crooner revealed he did a major surgery in 2022 that left him with sixteen stitches in his mouth and was eating baby food for two weeks.
The singer said he was just discharged from the hospital when friends called to inform him the next day that Wizkid co-signed his song ‘Picanto’ which featured Zlatan Ibile.
Odumodublvck added that Wizkid sharing his song on social media was the sign God used to tell him that he would be successful.
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 the 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.”
