Nigerian rapper and songwriter Odumodublvck has rejected an invitation from Arise TV presenter Rufai Oseni, who offered the artiste an opportunity to respond to allegations and claims made by fellow rapper Blaqbonez during a recent interview.
Oseni extended the invitation publicly on social media, describing it as a “right of reply” to Blaqbonez’s interview. The presenter urged Odumodublvck to appear on his programme and present his own side of the story.
In the post addressed directly to the rapper, Oseni wrote: “Dear Odomodublavk, This is an invitation to you again to have your right of reply to the interview with Blaqbonez. We encourage you to come say your own side of the story! We will be happy to welcome you!”
However, instead of accepting the invitation, Odumodublvck criticised the presenter over what he described as an error in the spelling of his stage name.
The rapper pointed out that Oseni had failed to spell his name correctly in the invitation.
Odumodublvck insisted that his official stage name is spelt “ODUMODUBLVCK” and questioned the professionalism of the journalist.
Responding to Oseni, the rapper wrote: “It’s ODUMODUBLVCK sir. You cannot even spell my name right and you want to talk to me, I am so sorry but you are a terrible journalist sir.”
The response effectively indicated that Odumodublvck was not interested in accepting the invitation under the circumstances.
As of the time of the report, there was no indication that the rapper would appear on Rufai Oseni’s programme to respond directly to the issues raised by Blaqbonez.
The development comes amid the ongoing public dispute between Odumodublvck and Blaqbonez, which has generated significant attention within the Nigerian music industry.
The disagreement between the two rappers has extended beyond music and social media exchanges, with both artistes making serious claims and responding to each other publicly.
Blaqbonez recently spoke about the controversy during an interview with Rufai Oseni, explaining his perspective on the dispute and why he eventually decided to address the issues publicly.
Oseni’s invitation was therefore positioned as an opportunity for Odumodublvck to respond directly and ensure that audiences heard both sides of the story.
However, the rapper’s decision to reject the invitation means that viewers may have to wait for another platform or statement if he chooses to publicly address Blaqbonez’s claims.
The concept of a right of reply is often used in journalism to give individuals an opportunity to respond to allegations or claims made about them.
Oseni’s invitation appeared to follow that principle by offering Odumodublvck the chance to explain his position after Blaqbonez’s interview.
However, Odumodublvck’s response shifted the conversation away from the substance of the allegations and towards the conduct of the interviewer.
His criticism over the spelling of his name suggests that he considered the error significant enough to question Oseni’s credibility as a journalist.
The rapper did not provide an alternative interview date or indicate another platform where he would give his response.
The latest development has left fans and followers of the Nigerian music scene watching closely to see what Odumodublvck will do next.
The rapper could potentially respond through social media, another interview or another public platform. Alternatively, he may choose not to engage further with the controversy.
For now, Blaqbonez’s interview remains one of the latest major public accounts of the dispute, while Odumodublvck has declined the opportunity offered by Rufai Oseni.
The incident has also sparked discussions about celebrity interviews, journalism, right of reply and professionalism in Nigerian media.
Whether the two rappers eventually settle their differences or continue their public exchange remains to be seen. However, Odumodublvck’s latest response has added another layer to a feud that continues to attract attention across social media and the Nigerian entertainment industry.
