Odumodublvck Slams M.I Abaga, Says He’s Lost All Respect For The Veteran Rapper Amid Growing Feud

 

Nigerian rapper and performer Odumodublvck has sparked a storm across social media after publicly blasting veteran hip-hop figure M.I Abaga, accusing him of hypocrisy and cowardice amid ongoing tensions involving rapper Blaqbonez. The fiery outburst, which quickly went viral on X, marks one of the boldest confrontations within Nigeria’s rap scene in recent times, throwing a spotlight on the shifting dynamics between the old and new generations of artists.

Odumodublvck, known for his confrontational lyrics and fearless online persona, did not mince words as he addressed M.I directly. He claimed that the respected rapper, often referred to as the “Chairman” of Nigerian hip-hop, deliberately chose to remain neutral during what he described as a “conspiracy” against him. According to Odumodublvck, M.I was fully aware of the situation but opted to stay silent instead of standing up for the truth.

The “Declan Rice” hitmaker expressed deep disappointment, saying he no longer sees M.I as a legend or a mentor figure. He accused him of trying to maintain a spotless public image by portraying himself as the “good guy” even when situations demand honesty and confrontation. Odumodublvck’s post, written with unfiltered emotion, read, “MI_Abaga as for you. The whole world will be shocked that I’m talking to you like this and I know they’ll come for me because you’re very good at portraying the ‘good’ guy. One thing they didn’t tell you is that I don’t care about public opinion unlike you.”

The rapper continued his tirade, asserting that M.I chose to “sit on the fence” during a critical moment when his voice could have made a difference. He wrote, “You stood in front of a blatant lie and decided to sit on the fence like Abuchi. I have lost every iota of respect for you.” He concluded his post with biting words that have since dominated online conversations: “Short man devil, you no be my OG. You are nothing but a rat. I bet you won’t reply because I’m saying the truth.”

Reactions from fans and industry observers poured in almost instantly. While some expressed disappointment in Odumodublvck for publicly disrespecting one of Nigeria’s most revered rap icons, others applauded him for being bold enough to speak his truth. Many have interpreted his statements as a symptom of the growing generational rift in Nigerian hip-hop, where emerging stars are beginning to question the authority and relevance of the old guard.

M.I Abaga, whose real name is Jude Abaga, has long been celebrated for shaping the foundation of contemporary Nigerian rap. His influence is evident in the careers of several younger rappers, including Blaqbonez, who was signed to Chocolate City, M.I’s former label. However, M.I’s decision to remain silent amid recent conflicts between his protégés and their peers appears to have irked Odumodublvck, who sees neutrality as complicity.

Industry insiders suggest that the root of the tension might extend beyond mere disagreements over loyalty. Some speculate that competition, clashing egos, and the evolving soundscape of Nigerian rap are fueling this public fallout. Odumodublvck, whose rise to prominence has been marked by his unfiltered approach and street-oriented sound, represents a new breed of artists who prioritize authenticity over diplomacy. For him, silence in the face of perceived betrayal is unacceptable.

Social media analysts have also pointed out that Odumodublvck’s outburst may be part of a broader pattern of self-assertion common among emerging rappers who feel overshadowed by established figures. Yet, others warn that such public feuds risk undermining the unity and growth of the genre, especially at a time when Nigerian hip-hop is regaining global attention.

As of now, M.I Abaga has not issued any public response to Odumodublvck’s statements. His silence, whether strategic or dismissive, continues to fuel speculation and debate. Some fans interpret his quiet stance as a sign of maturity, suggesting that he prefers to avoid unnecessary drama, while others believe his refusal to respond only reinforces Odumodublvck’s accusations of being a “fencist.”

The unfolding dispute has undeniably reignited discussions about respect, mentorship, and accountability within Nigeria’s music industry. For Odumodublvck, the message seems clear: he no longer recognizes M.I as a legend deserving of reverence. For M.I’s supporters, however, the accusation feels undeserved, given his undeniable contributions to hip-hop in Africa.

As the story continues to evolve, many are watching closely to see whether M.I will eventually address the issue or allow it to fade in typical industry fashion. What remains certain is that Odumodublvck’s words have shaken the core of the Nigerian rap community, reopening long-simmering debates about legacy, loyalty, and leadership within the culture.

The tension between both rappers may yet mark a turning point in the generational narrative of Nigerian hip-hop, as younger artists push back against the icons who paved the way, demanding authenticity and accountability from those they once idolized.
