Captioning the video, he wrote, “Proof of life”, an apparent contradiction to the obituary post that had been deleted. He would later apologise to Nigerians for the viral claim about his death, saying the announcement was not a publicity stunt to promote the newly released album, as many had alleged. It came on the heels of the Nigerian music industry mourning Mohbad’s loss, amplifying the shock.Despite his apology, the episode sparked debates over clout-chasing and divided fans.

He raps, “People dey wish me, make I die when I was fighting to be stab,” calling out influencers like Daniel Regha, Mbah and Kussman, who, according to him, used his ordeal for content. The track is a fiery declaration of survival and a call-out to detractors.A spirited track with a mix of Yoruba and English, Chaos explores themes of self-worth and resilience. Oladips describes himself as a masterpiece despite being flawed.

Cultural and spiritual identity are woven throughout the album, with Yoruba proverbs, Igbo influences, and traditional storytelling enriching his narrative. Faith and divine guidance anchor his reflections in Disciples Cypher . Gratitude and celebration balance the album’s introspection, as songs like Gbemisoke convey appreciation for divine intervention. At the same time, upbeat tracks like Osondi Owendi and Lazarus Rhythm offer moments of joy and resilience.
