Nigerian rapper Odumodublvck has accused his former label, Chocolate City, of plotting to have him arrested, an allegation the company has firmly denied. The disagreement is now playing out publicly while the wider matter sits before the courts.
The Gist
- Odumodublvck accuses ex-label of arrest plot
- Chocolate City firmly denies the allegation
- Dispute now heading to court
In posts on X in early June 2026, the artist claimed the label had teamed up with the police to detain him. He described it as the latest in a series of attempts.
What Odumodublvck alleged
The rapper, born Tochukwu Gospel Ojogwu, called it the “9th” such effort. He said the moves came before his American tour and again ahead of his European tour.
“Chocolate City has been trying to arrest me for the longest time,” he wrote. He also dismissed a petition linked to the label as “frivolous.”
He tied the friction to his decision to speak out about an alleged abuser connected to the label. He framed his posts as self-defence rather than provocation.
How Chocolate City responded
The label pushed back through Desmond Ezebuiro, a public-relations lead at Bean Creative IMC, a Chocolate City Group subsidiary. He rejected the claim outright.
“Our company does not possess the authority to arrest any individual, as such powers rest with law enforcement,” he said. He added that the matter was in court and the company would not comment further.
That position draws a clear line. The label says only the police and courts can act, and that it has no power to order anyone’s detention.
The backstory to the dispute
The tension is not new. In December 2025, Chocolate City accused the rapper of assaulting a staff member, Feyi Ajayi, backstage at the Rhythm Unplugged concert.
The label alleged a “sustained pattern of harassment, stalking, and physical violence.” The artist has contested the framing of events.
Both sides have since traded statements, each presenting its own version. The legal process is expected to test those competing accounts.
A fast-rising career
Odumodublvck has become one of the most talked-about names in Nigerian music. His blend of rap and street-leaning sound has won a young, loyal audience at home and abroad.
That profile has carried him onto international stages and tours across the United States and Europe. His rise has been swift, and closely watched by fans.
Disputes between artists and their former labels are not unusual in the industry. Questions of contracts, royalties and creative control often surface once a relationship sours.
What happens next
For now, the claims and counter-claims remain unresolved. Both the rapper and the label say they are confident in their positions.
With the matter said to be before the courts, any firm conclusions will wait for the legal process. Fans on both sides have weighed in online, but the facts are still being tested.
Viorah TV will continue to report developments as they are confirmed, without endorsing either account.
Why it matters
Odumodublvck is one of Nigeria’s fastest-rising acts, with a growing global profile. A public fallout with a major label draws attention to how artists and companies manage contracts and disputes.
