Blaqbonez vs. OdumoduBlvck: Rap Beef Heats Up as Davido Offers a Humorous Solution

A fiery rap feud is unfolding between two of Nigeria’s hottest lyricists, Blaqbonez and OdumoduBlvck, as tensions escalate both on social media and in their music. Amid the growing drama, Afrobeats megastar Davido has stepped into the fray, offering a tongue-in-cheek way to resolve the conflict.
In a light-hearted video clip making rounds online, Davido is seen speaking with Blaqbonez during Paris Fashion Week, jokingly telling him that he needs to square up with OdumoduBlvck, implying a face-off to settle their differences once and for all.
“You go fight Odumodu o,” Davido says with a grin, sending fans into a frenzy.
While Davido’s suggestion may be playful, hip-hop heads are eager for a lyrical clash between the two MCs—a proper rap battle that could decide who truly holds the crown.

The latest chapter in the Blaqbonez–OdumoduBlvck rivalry exploded with the release of “Who’s Really Rapping,” a new track by Blaqbonez and rap veteran A-Q. The hard-hitting single doubles as a critique of the Nigerian hip-hop landscape and a direct challenge to OdumoduBlvck’s self-declared reign as the genre’s torchbearer.
With lines that strongly suggest Odumodu as the primary target, Blaqbonez and A-Q boldly question the lyrical prowess of today’s rap scene, declaring themselves as the genre’s true standard-bearers.
OdumoduBlvck didn’t take the subliminals lightly. He fired back with mocking tweets and direct jabs, reaffirming his position as the “face of Nigerian hip hop.”
He accused the duo of jealousy, backstabbing, and betrayal, and claimed Blaqbonez’s bold declarations about being Africa’s best rapper are nothing but delusion.
Though the full origin of their beef remains unclear, many believe it stems from long-simmering competition and creative ego. Odumodu had previously sent warning shots at Blaqbonez in tracks off his album The Machine Is Coming, setting the stage for what now feels like an open lyrical war.
In a recent podcast appearance, OdumoduBlvck openly questioned Blaqbonez’s credibility, stating:
“All that talk about being the best rapper in Africa? It’s cap.”
With the beef spilling into tracks and timelines, fans are hungry for more bars, more disses, and maybe, just maybe, a legendary rap battle. Whether it stays on wax or ends in a playful boxing ring, as Davido suggested, the Nigerian hip-hop scene hasn’t seen this much excitement in years.
