They say musicians tell the future and story of a people through their songs, just like Fela did, in the case of DVJ 4Mula he told the story of our today Nigeria in a single he released in September 2019 titled Obodo Na Esi Isi.
The Song “Obodo Na Esi Isi” which literally translates as “the country is smelling” couldn’t have resonated more with the audience than at a time like this. With the recent #ENDSARS protest wave across the country, and the subsequent lawlessness that broke out as a result of hoodlums hijacking the movement, and the killing of peaceful protesters, the country has been thrown into chaos.
Obodo na esi isi sounds like the foretold coming of Christ, as it captures the present state of the society now. Taking a verse from the song

Arise O’ compatriots
I hope i dey make sense
Obodo na esi isi
Ndi isi anyi na akpu sense.
The video aptly illustrates the rot in our system, from the settings to the visual message, like a prophecy, it shows a time where everyone comes together to make Nigeria better as we saw with the protest irrespective of tribe, religion, or gender. The artiste revealed that he was inspired to pass this prophecy along to the people about our nation.
