The Nigerian music industry is gearing up for a heavyweight collaboration as fast-rising rap star Odumodublvck prepares to unleash his latest single, PAY ME, this Friday, August 22, 2025.
The much-anticipated track features British grime heavyweight Stormzy alongside Nigeria’s street-hop hitmaker Zlatan, marking a fusion of three powerful voices from different corners of the global music map.
Odumodublvck broke the news on Wednesday, August 20, via his official social media page, accompanied by a teaser video and striking promotional photos.
The photos capture the trio in coordinated black utility jumpsuits, posing in what resembles a corporate office setting, an image that conveys strength, unity, and a clear sense of purpose. In contrast, the teaser video shows a more relaxed side, with Stormzy sporting a white jacket, Zlatan rocking a plaid shirt, and Odumodublvck in a black hoodie as they share laughter while money rains down in the background.

Although the snippet leaves the sound of the record largely under wraps, the combination of these artists alone has heightened expectations. Odumodublvck, famous for his experimental Okporoko sound, is expected to blend Afro-fusion with Stormzy’s gritty grime delivery and Zlatan’s energetic street-pop style, crafting what many predict will be a genre-defying anthem.
Judging by its title, PAY ME is likely to tackle themes of wealth, ambition, and recognition. subjects deeply connected to each artist’s personal journey.
With such a star-studded lineup, the single is being tipped as one of the year’s biggest cross-continental collaborations, underlining Afrobeats’ growing synergy with the UK grime movement.
The single officially arrives on all major digital platforms this Friday, and fans are already bracing for a record that promises both lyrical punch and global appeal.
