Rapper Tochukwu Gbubemi Ojogwu, better known as Odumodublvck, has said he would gladly sacrifice the chance to win a Grammy Award if it meant Arsenal would lift the Premier League trophy.
The Arsenal fan made the declaration during an interview with Capital Xtra, where his comments have since attracted widespread attention online.
Odumodublvck explained that, for him, seeing the north London club crowned Premier League champions would carry greater significance than receiving the music industry’s most prestigious individual award.
The rapper also recalled an encounter with Super Eagles midfielder Eberechi Eze following Arsenal’s defeat to Manchester City.
He said he ran into Eze the following day while they were shooting a New Balance commercial, during which the midfielder reassured him that Arsenal would eventually win the league.
“When we lost to Manchester City, I saw Eze the next day when we were doing a New Balance commercial, and he told me we’re gonna win the league and I said yes, I believe,” he said.
When presented with a choice between collecting a Grammy and watching Arsenal secure the Premier League title, Odumodublvck made it clear that his loyalty lies with the club.
“So stuff like that for me, winning the league was everything. If you gave me the opportunity to win a Grammy Award or let Arsenal win that Premier League, I would have chosen that Premier League. Take it to the bank,” he said.
The rapper, who has frequently expressed his allegiance to Arsenal through his music and public appearances, further illustrated his preference by referring to the club’s controversial 2024/25 defeat to West Ham.
“If I had the chance to win a Grammy Award, yeah, say this is a Grammy Award, and they say, let that West Ham goal count or whatever, let them cancel that West Ham goal for Arsenal to win the league, which one will you pick? I would pick that league ahead of the Grammy Award,” he said.
