ODUMODUBLVCK Shows a Softer Side of the Kala Energy in New Single “They Love Me”

2 min read

Fresh off a streak of global successes, Abuja’s most explosive musical force, ODUMODUBLVCK, has returned with a perfectly timed Valentine’s season release titled “They Love Me.” Produced by the hit-making UCEE, the track sees the rapper leaning into a flirtatious and boisterous persona that balances his signature grit with a newfound sense of romantic vulnerability.

While ODUMODUBLVCK is widely known for the high-octane “Okpu Agu” energy that has come to define the Native House movement, “They Love Me” offers a refreshing melodic counterpoint. The inclusion of guest vocalist Valentina Rose provides a soulful texture that softens the edges of the rapper’s typical delivery, creating a boisterous hymn to both love and self-confidence.

Lyrically, the song navigates the complexities of affection with the artist’s trademark wit, seamlessly blending street lingo with sincere romantic overtures. This release marks a notable departure from his purely aggressive “Kala” records, demonstrating a versatility that allows him to dominate both the high-energy mosh pit and the intimate bedroom playlist. The production is characterized by crisp, heavy basslines rippling under a soulful sample, creating a rhythmic machine that moves with clear romantic intent.

“They Love Me” feels like the next logical step in ODUMODUBLVCK’s territorial expansion. By fusing his core Abuja roots with a more accessible Afropop-Rap sound, he continues to broaden his appeal without alienating the “Antiworld Gangstars” faithful. The track has already sparked significant social media conversation, with fans praising the infectious bounce and the playful, organic chemistry between the two vocalists.

As 2026 progresses, this single reinforces ODUMODUBLVCK’s position as a multifaceted performer. He remains the industry’s most explosive character, yet “They Love Me” invites listeners to witness a side of him that is as charming as it is confident.

“They Love Me” is now available for streaming and download on all major digital music platforms.
