Travis Scott thrills fans, announces new releases in the works.
The success of Travis Scott’s new album, “Utopia” and his Circus Maximus tour have been really prodigious. Perhaps, it is why fans took to social media to express their outrage after the album lost the Rap album of the year category at the Grammys to Killer Mike’s “Michael”. The American rapper has however taken to his Instagram story to tease fans about new releases. Travis wrote that he loved music so much and would “kick a new gear since they think it’s playtime”, declaring that he will be back. Fans have taken this to mean that new music from their favourite rapper will be released soon.

ODUMODUBLVCK drops opinion on the “pave way” narrative in Nigeria’s music scene.
The discourse of prior Nigerian musicians paving the way for new artists, which first emerged after Burna Boy’s declaration after winning the Grammys in 2021 has re-emerged with music legend, Eedris Abdulkareem criticizing the Afrofusion star for the statement. This has sparked numerous discussions on social media and Nigerian rapper, ODUMODUBLVCK is the latest to comment on this discourse. The “Picanto” singer has claimed that too many persons are trying to claim God’s glory, noting that nobody paved the way for the likes of Burna Boy and Wizkid but their hard work and dedication. According to him, artists can only be inspired by other artists but no one is capable of paving the way for another artist.
EVERYBODY DEY CLAIM PAVE THE WAY.
EVERYBODY TRYNNA CLAIM GODS GLORY
NONE OF YOU NIGGAS PAVED THE WAY FOR NO ONE.
NOBODY PAVED THE WAY FOR WIZKID OR BURNA. NOBODY
THEY HUSTLED.
ALL OF US GET OUR INDIVIDUAL STRUGGLES AND REALITY.
INSPIRED? YES.
PAVED THE WAY? THATS…
