Davido tells Odumodublvck that the true foundation of the iconic “Next Rated” category at the Headies Awards was laid by the legendary wins of Wizkid, Wande Coal, and himself. In a moment both nostalgic and powerful, Davido reminded the rising star that before the category became a cultural milestone, it was their early wins that gave it prestige.
The conversation stirred online buzz as fans reflected on the impact these early trailblazers had on Nigerian music. Davido tells Odumodublvck this not to downplay the achievements of newer artistes, but to underscore the history and weight that comes with winning such an award. He emphasized the importance of understanding one’s place in a larger legacy.
Odumodublvck, known for his street energy and Gen Z appeal, respectfully received the comment, with many calling it a teachable moment in music royalty passing down wisdom to the next generation.
