The release of DJ Tunez, Wizkid, and Odumodublvck’s ‘Easy With Me’ this Friday marks a fascinating moment in the current Afrobeats landscape. Following the release of Wizkid’s Morayo, this track serves as a sharp pivot back to the streets. Orchestrated by DJ Tunez, it isn’t just a collaboration; it is a curated clash of two distinct musical worlds.
The concept shouldn’t work on paper. You have the ethereal, whisper-soft delivery of Wizkid, the “Ojuelegba melody king,” paired with the sledgehammer aggression of Odumodublvck, the “Abuja drill warlord.” Yet, under the guidance of producer Ozedikus, the friction becomes the hook.
The Sound and The Sentiment
So, what is the result? It is a hybrid beast. The production blends the rolling log-drum basslines of Amapiano with a darker, grittier edge that accommodates Odumodu’s flow. Wizkid opens the track in full “Starboy” mode—laid back, almost arrogant in his ease. He sets a hypnotic trance. Then, the energy shifts violently. Odumodublvck enters not with a melody, but with his signature “Declan Rice” aggression.
The public reaction has been immediate and loud. Engagement on X (formerly Twitter) spiked instantly upon the announcement, and industry heavyweights like Olamide have already co-signed the release. Fans are calling it a “chaotic, beautiful mess.” It manages to serve two masters: it has the recognisable vocals for radio play and the heavy drop for the clubs. Ultimately, it proves that Wizkid can still tap into the gritty street-hop movement without losing his global gloss.
