Afro-fusion star singer, Burna Boy made an attempt to correct the notion about the common use of Afrobeat, during an interview on Radar Radio. The singer said contrary to popular opinion, only FELA does Afrobeat.

The term ‘Afrobeat’ has become a commonly used term in the current Nigerian music community.

A Nigerian music journalist named, Dennis Peter, in his article about music activism in Afrobeat, stated that “Afrobeats simply lumps every contemporary genre of music being made in Africa into a giant blob.”

Indeed, several artistes have claimed Afrobeat as their preferred genre of music but Burna Boy has come out with a contrary opinion.

In his interview with Radar Radio, where he was referred to as the “King of Afrobeat”, Burna Boy corrected the journalist by stating that he makes Afrofusion music and not Afrobeat.

He stated that only FELA Kuti does Afrobeat as far as he is concerned, even though a lot of other Nigerian artistes would like to be seen as Afrobeat purveyors.

wizkid,davido etc do not do afrobeats.

afrobeats sounds is different from what our musicians are doing.

music historians and lovers can differentiate the sounds when they hear it

juju,highlife,afrobeats,fuji sounds are all different,what our present young musicians are doing,i cant categorise it.

alkanes1:
Most Nigerian artistes don't know the difference between afrobeat and afropop. Quite sad

It is people like you who make davido and olamide smart cos you love to listen to crappy music rather than good music.
Nigerian musicians sing shit and yet folks like your praise their mediocrity... in the last ten years we've had just two top notch musicians "Asa & Brymo". This two has the finesse no other Nigerian musician possess currently
