Nigerian rapper Odumodublvck has set the music scene on fire with the release of his highly anticipated fifth studio album Industry Machine. The project features some of the biggest names in Afrobeats, including Wizkid, Davido, Seun Kuti, Skepta, and Stormzy. Just hours after its release, the album climbed to number one on the Apple Music Nigeria Top Albums chart, proving how much fans had been waiting for it.
One of the major highlights of the album is the fact that both Wizkid and Davido are featured on it. This unexpected collaboration sparked mixed reactions from fans. While some celebrated Odumodublvck for bringing the two Afrobeats heavyweights together, others believed it might fuel old debates about rivalry. Wizkid is featured on the song Big Time, while Davido teamed up with Seun Kuti on Grooving. Both tracks have already become fan favourites.
Odumodublvck also revealed that neither Wizkid nor Davido charged him for their features. He described the collaborations as a sign of respect and support for his journey. He even called Wizkid’s verse one of the greatest he has ever heard. This gesture has made many fans respect the artists even more, seeing it as a moment that puts Nigerian music culture above competition.
Despite the excitement, some critics have shared their thoughts about the album’s length and structure. Industry Machine spans 23 tracks, and while the energy is undeniable, some listeners believe it could have been tighter. Still, songs like Big Time and Grooving are being praised for their production quality and memorable delivery.
For Odumodublvck, this album is more than just another release. It is a statement of intent. By merging hip-hop, Afrobeats, drill, and highlife, he is showing that his sound can travel far beyond Nigeria. Industry Machine proves that Odumodublvck is no longer just a rising star — he is a major force in African music today.
