Nigerian artist Odumodublvck is opening up about his friendships with celebrities, including Seyi Tinubu, the son of President Bola Tinubu, and fellow musicians Rema and Burna Boy. In a recent episode of the Afrobeats Podcast, Odumodublvck emphasized that his friendship with Seyi is genuine and not influenced by politics. He revealed that Seyi invited him to dinner because he’s a fan of his music, not to seek political endorsement.
Odumodublvck also spoke about his friendship with Rema, saying he values their bond and sees no reason not to acknowledge and support him. He even shared a fascinating story about meeting Burna Boy, claiming he had a dream about eating pounded yam with him before they met in real life. According to Odumodublvck, Burna Boy told him that the day they met was the first time he’d had pounded yam in two years.
It’s clear that Odumodublvck values his relationships with his friends and colleagues, and isn’t afraid to speak candidly about them.

He said; “Rema is my friend. Seyi Tinubu is also my friend. Regardless of his father being the president and people throwing stones at him, he’s my friend. When he invited me to his home for dinner, he didn’t do it for me to support his dad. He did it because he loves my music. I’m a street boy. Seyi has nothing to gain from me. He’s my friend. Forget whatever society is saying.
“The same goes for Rema. Why I no go famz Rema? Who I wan go famz? Adele? Speed Darlington? Akpi is not my friend. Burna Boy is my spirit animal—Skepta too. Before I met Burna Boy, I saw him in my dream, and we were eating pounded yam. Burna Boy told me that the day I saw him was the first time he had eaten pounded yam in two years. This thing is not a joke. They think I just cap. They think I talk about Jesus because I’m a fanatic. I’m a big fan of Jesus. Anything I say, I bound here on earth and in heaven, as long as it aligns with the will of God.”
