“I Supported You, Now Support Me” – Odumodublvck tells Peter Obi as he Demands Support for his New Album

• Abuja-born artist expressed frustration over Obi’s silence on his new album, “The Machine Is Coming,” on his official X handle.

• Odumodu, who supported the politician with “sweat and blood,” now expects the same energy in return for his new music project.

Nigerian rapper Tochukwu Gbubemi Ojogwu, widely recognized as Odumodublvck, has publicly called on Peter Obi, the Labour Party’s presidential candidate in 2023, to reciprocate the support he previously extended during the last general elections.

On Thursday, April 3, the Abuja-born artist took to his official X account to express his disappointment regarding Obi’s lack of acknowledgment for his new album, titled “The Machine Is Coming.”

Odumodublvck emphasized that he had supported the politician with significant dedication and now anticipates a similar level of support for his latest music endeavor.

In his initial post, the rapper directly requested Obi to promote his forthcoming album.

“@PeterObi hello Mr Peter Obi. I support you that year. Oya support me now. Oya do video dey talk The Machine is coming. Abeg. Me and you never ever get problem before. Make e no start now.”Moments later, he followed up with a stronger statement, making his frustration even clearer:

“The time wey I support Peter Obi na with sweat and blood. If he cannot give me a ‘common’ tweet, then me and am go fight. I no dey hide my mouth. Make una dey talk una own. The Machine is coming.”

Odumodublvck also reminded Peter Obi of his conflict with Bola Tinubu, the current president. He was one of the most prominent supporters of Obi’s presidential campaign in 2023. In the NATIVE Sound System single “Vex,” released on March 2, 2023, he expressed his hope that Obi would “save” him.

Additionally, the rapper declined an invitation to perform at Bola Tinubu’s inauguration in May 2023, citing a lack of proper research on the organizers’ part.

Continuing to urge Peter Obi for support, he reminded the politician of his previous criticisms of Tinubu.

“@PeterObi I even dissed Tinubu for you. Now because of you, the people are spitting on me and my legacy. Tweet The Machine is coming to rekindle and redeem our friendship, sir. Do not listen to them. Listen to your heart. The Machine is coming,” he stated.

In a subsequent post on X, he stated, “On today’s episode of Wage War – the people of Peter Obi vs the Industry Machine. Go and ask around, I have never lost a war. Peter Obi has lost an election. There is only one winner here. Tell that man to promote my album or else I will cut ties with him with immediate effect.”

At the time of this report, Peter Obi had not yet addressed the rapper’s request.
