Odumodublvck has asserted that Nigerian music stars, Tems and Ayra Starr have done more for the music industry than Afrobeats icons, Fela, Wizkid and Burna Boy.

The rapper made this claim during a recent interview with British Nigerian media personality, Madame Joyce, on her podcast. Odumodublvck stated that being a successful female artiste is the hardest job in the world.

He revealed that he recently met Tems and her manager, Mayowa, and that was when he made the statement that the achievements of the two female musicians is more than the leading male peers in the industry.

Odumodublvck said; “When I was coming to London, I was on the same flight with Tems’ manager, Don Awon. I told Tems, ‘Big up, you did it. What you and Ayra Starr have done is bigger than anything Wizkid, Burna Boy and even Fela have done.’ Quote me anywhere.

“Because as a female artiste, out of every 10 show promoters, 5 want to have sex with you, out of every 10 producers, 5 want to have sex with you, out of every 10 artistes that you look up to and need help from them, 5 want to have sex with you.

“I can’t imagine being in that situation. And after dodging all those things, you still make good music. Remember, the number one hardest job in this world is being a woman.

“The second hardest job is being an artiste because there are over 100 million artistes. How are you going to make it out of the thousands of songs that drop every day? Why should they listen to your own?

“It’s not like you’re doing a job that your payment is guaranteed. As an artiste, there’s no guaranteed payment, you’ve to make it for people to pay you. It took me about six years to get my first good cheque. So imagine being a babe and an artiste and you still make it. That’s impressive.”
