Nigerian rapper Odumodublvck has stirred conversations online after confirming that Mavin Records star Rema gifted him a generous ₦40 million to support the production of his music video for Pity This Boy.
The revelation came during a newly resurfaced interview that has since gone viral.
In the clip, Odumodublvck shared how, despite being advised by several industry insiders not to release his track on the same day as the new single of Rema, he trusted his instincts, a move that led to an unexpected act of kindness from the Calm Down hitmaker.
“When people do stuff for you, you have to appreciate it because you don’t know where the favour is coming from,” he said. “They told me not to drop my song with Rema, but I went ahead. The same guy sent me ₦40 million to shoot Pity This Boy. Imagine if I had listened, maybe the Holy Spirit would have told him not to send the money.”
This interview follows Odumodublvck’s viral tweet on June 9, 2025, where he first hinted at the generous gesture. He wrote: “REMA GAVE ME 40 MILLION NAIRA TO SUPPORT PITY THIS BOY RECORD. 40 MILLION NAIRA. WRITE THAT DOWN IN NIGERIAN MUSIC FOLKLORE. THE MACHINE.”
The revelation has sparked massive reactions across social media, with fans praising both artists for their show of mutual respect and support in an industry often marked by rivalry. Many have hailed Rema’s gesture as a standout moment of brotherhood in Nigerian music history.
