Odumodublvck faces backlash over comments on Tems, Ayra Starr's clothing choices
Odumodublvck, the popular Nigerian rapper, has sparked heated debates and widespread backlash following his recent remarks about the wardrobe choices of fellow Nigerian artists Tems and Ayra Starr. His comments have generated significant attention across social media and within the entertainment industry, with fans and critics weighing in on the sensitive topic.
During a recent interview, Odumodublvck alleged that Tems and Ayra Starr intentionally opt for oversized clothing when visiting studios as a calculated strategy to shield themselves from being sexualized or objectified by male industry professionals.
According to him, their fashion choices are not merely a matter of personal style but a deliberate effort to maintain control over how they are perceived in an industry often criticized for its objectification of women.
While some have supported his observation as shedding light on the challenges faced by women in the music industry, others have condemned his remarks as unnecessary and intrusive. Critics argue that such commentary risks undermining the autonomy of female artists, reducing their creative expressions to defensive maneuvers rather than authentic choices.
The debate has reignited discussions about sexism, agency, and respect within the entertainment world, with many calling for a more nuanced understanding of the pressures female artists face.
According to Odumodublvck, the unfortunate reality is that many people in the music industry, including producers, often make unwanted advances towards female artists, creating a hostile and challenging work environment.
He alleged that Tems, in particular, faces intense pressure, stating, “Tems has to wear big clothes to studios because everybody wants to f** her. She would want to make a hit and still has to think about how to make the producer not like her.”
However, Odumodublvck’s comments have been met with widespread criticism, with many accusing him of being insensitive and perpetuating harmful stereotypes. Critics argue that his remarks place the burden of responsibility on the female artists to avoid being objectified, rather than addressing the root cause of the problem – the pervasive sexism and misogyny within the music industry.
“Tems has to wear big clothes to studios because everybody wants to fvc^ her… Babes in the creative space, hold on to God.”
