Rapper Tochukwu Ojogwu, popularly known as Odumodublvck, has revealed how music producer Don Jazzy gifted him $10,000 and offered to collaborate on his song ‘Asampete.’
In a recent interview on Beat 97.9FM, the 31-year-old rapper said he reached out to Don Jazzy because he felt the producer’s vocals were essential to complete the track.
Odumodublvck recalled that during his visit to Don Jazzy’s residence, he not only received $10,000 but was also told he could keep all the royalties from the song.
He added that Don Jazzy generously offered to be featured as an artiste on the track.
“Don Jazzy is the king of Afrobeats. Ask anybody, there is nobody more original than Don Jazzy. Don Jazzy is an OG.
“Respect to my brothers Burna, Wiz, Olamide, Dave — all of us used to look up to him. Like the way we looked up to Wizkid and David, they looked up to him,” Odumodublvck said.
He continued, “When I went to meet him, he gave me a lot of money — $10,000 cash. Don no be for mouth. He still gave me vocals and told me I could keep all the royalties.
“That day, they even cooked for me. They gave me turkey. The line for ‘turkey’ was already in the song, and that was God.”
Odumodublvck, known for his energetic stage performances and genre-blending style, signed a record deal with NATIVE Records in partnership with Def Jam Recordings in 2022.
That same year, he released Picanto, featuring ECko Miles and Zlatan Ibile.
