So you know better than the laws of the land how a deceased property is assigned at death? Sounds like you are the father and family member. That money you are fighting over, even transport to go home after court decides over the property, you will not see it.
Okay, it seems you know better than the judges

Why don’t you go direct your anger at the court.

The time you are wasting on Nairaland, go and file a petition or court injunction to stop the DNA process…

Irrespective of the prior impressions you have about them or whether they sound off

Besides kemi has been proven to be right on many occasions even though it sounded like she was talking rubbish.


Even a mad man has his day when he says something sensible.

You don't know or haven't confirmed the details of what she is saying now yet her mouth is loose and her brain needs factory reset? shocked

Public case that has been determined by the government with what outcome? That Wunmi killed him? Did the deceased ever deny his child or have a will in place for DNA?

Some men even stand as fathers to kids that they know aren’t theirs from birth and their extended family never knows. But all of a sudden they die, extended family think they have the right to decide who can inherit what? because na dem work for the man money. If e easy, why the papa no blow when he was trying to be a star, using Mohbad’s death? Obviously he lack a woman like Wunmi in his life.

If there was no will, the court has no right to ask his wife and kids to conduct a DNA test because extended family and social media wish it. That is just silly gossip. Even if the child is not his, his wife still has rights over his property before anyone else. This judge is just following social media and he has no basis for his decision.
I read what you wrote and one thing is obvious, you don’t even understand the case at all..


Stop chooking mouth in matters that pass your understanding
Better still, go get yourself updated on what happened

Mohbad never deny his son and was fully with the wife until his death. The father who was wearing his sons clothes and using his son death to raise money now somehow cares about whether the son has a real child because he is looking out for his son interest.

Did Mohbad ever come out to tell the father that he suspect the child is not his? People making dirty excuses cause they want to steal money. Your own time will come. At your death your family will do worse to your wife and kids. Continue supporting this. Dem kuku de hear your views right now.
Mohbad is dead and it is now a public case and government matter..

Anything to help in the investigation of his death will be taken and nothing you can do about it

If your woman dey fear DNA, then definitely she’s not sure who got her pregnant.. and it means she’s been doing stuffs . In fact, sleeping with different men without protection..

Lol... Well, here's my final quote cos I have realized you are one of those who jumps around during arguments, you change goal post when your points are being questioned...

All these questions you are asking me are unnecessary cos I already mentioned that going head to head with both legends isn't reasonable due to some factors, but you wanted to prove to me why Wiz shouldn't be referred to as legend just because Fela created the genre (which in truth, he's not even the founder), and you have not been able to...


So I leave you with this, as far as afro beat is concerned, Fela is a legend during his time, and Wiz is the new legend of afrobeats both on papers and in reality... And Wiz legendary status is not writing off or competing with that of Fela, both should be respectrd in their own way
Oga last quote

You cannot speak ignorance and tell a blatant lie and expect to escape with it.

You must mention who founded Afrobeats today…
Who is the founder of Afrobeats?

Maybe it’s Wizkid

But wait oo, wetin that Wizkid dey sing sef?? Person whey never die whey don turn to old glory 🤣🤣

Because when was the last time that guy was anything close to relevant? Lol

I don’t care if this your last quote… if you like, make it your last but I won’t stop to point out your ignorance, low IQ and make a mockery of it.

you spent the whole argument shouting numbers, streams, platforms, ratings , now suddenly you end with “both should be respected in their own way”.
That is pure back-pedalling. When your numbers failed to prove originality, you quietly changed the goalpost to emotional balance to console yourself

You can call Wizkid or anybody a legend if you want, your opinion be that… your opinion would never make Wizkid be given a Grammy lifetime award now or in the next 100 years… take that for a fact.
In Felas era and in this Era, Fela remains the greatest and no one dead or alive has matched up to him..
Maybe in the nearest future, but as at now, I repeat.. no one dead or alive has been able to wear the shoes of Fela and that is the single fact you can never ever change.

Wizkid is great among his peers such as Davido, Burna boy, and others…
Fela is on a god mode level.. a disruptor.

Saying they are both great in their own ways is the most arrogant talk you can use to delude yourself..
no sir, there’s zero room for comparison…and you cannot do that

(Fela is still being sampled, referenced and structurally copied by serious musicians today. That is what people who actually understand music look at.).... Mention few of them, now who brought Fela back to limelight among those you mentioned?


(And I’m not deceiving myself, I still listen to Fela up till tomorrow and many others still listens to him around the world… just the soundtracks alone are sufficient to enjoy a long drive)… You are actually, ok let's accept you and few others do, what are the numbers compared to today's ratings? You combined with the few others you mentioned worldwide, you all didn't total up to a significant numbers that can be noted by all known streaming platforms, so?

You and this streaming…

So in your logic , streaming numbers is equal to greatness or good music??


your problem is not music, it’s thinking problem

You’re using Spotify numbers to judge originality. That alone shows low IQ.
You keep shouting “facts” but all your facts are today’s charts, not how influence actually works.

You’re also contradicting yourself. You talk say “who brought Fela back to limelight?” so now greatness needs PR before it counts?
But five minutes later you say “numbers don’t lie”.
So which one is it, legacy or playlists? Pick one and stop embarrassing yourself.

You keep shouting “facts” but you clearly don’t understand how musical influence is measured.

Nobody said Wizkid is a TikTok artist. The point is that you are judging music with streaming-era consumption logic and applying it to a man who built music in a totally different industry structure. That is basic context, not insult.

Now to your biggest embarrassment:

You asked, who is sampling Fela, and who brought him back to limelight?”

This alone shows you don’t understand legacy.

Fela Anikulapo-Kuti never needed anybody to “bring him back”. He never left the academic, production and musician reference space.

Serious artists who have publicly built on, sampled, reworked or structurally referenced Fela’s sound include:
Burna Boy,
Questlove,
Erykah Badu,
and even Beyoncé openly credited Afrobeat and Fela’s legacy as part of the creative foundation of her African-inspired work.
Those are not bloggers but musicians and producers.

Felas music is spiritual….

My favorites

Beast of no nation—— that music is black DNA awakenings, the soundtrack and lyrics is like planting a seed of consciousness in the DNA

Unknown soldier—- the repetitive rhythm is from another realm… be like person wan enter trance. Raw African energy forged into music

Sorrows, tears and blood … that intro soundtrack is sad and repetitive… the sad state of the black man

Coffin for head of state—- again, rhe repetitive rhythm shows Felas soundtrack was invented for god mode

Army arrangement—- that repetitive rhythms again , like trance calling

Zombie—- funny lyrics, sad reality, raw energy blended together and yet very sweet (he lost his mother for it)

If Fela should sing those music he sang back then, I swear portable will easily flop him.... You don't work with reality.... Like you yourself mentioned, Fela should be thanking the new cats like wiz and the rest for sampling majority of his already forgotten songs....


I ask you again, before the whole Seun and Wiz saga, when last did you listen to Fela?


Keep deceiving yourself cry
At this pont, you are only exposing how shallow your thinking is…

you are judging a genre-founder from the 1970s with TikTok-era hype logic. That’s like using Instagram likes to evaluate physics research

Fela is still being sampled, referenced and structurally copied by serious musicians today. That is what people who actually understand music look at.

And I’m not deceiving myself, I still listen to Fela up till tomorrow and many others still listens to him around the world… just the soundtracks alone are sufficient to enjoy a long drive…

How many major artists have rebuilt their sound around Wizkid the way musicians keep rebuilding around Fela?

Because of their level of understanding and unwillness to change their line of thinking. Some others just for the sake of winning an argument will pull out strange facts.


It's better to identify such people and not waste your time arguing with them even when you have a superior argument.


As it is nothing you say to that man will make he change his mind no matter the facts you present to him!

I don't want assumptions, I want real facts... Let's go to Apple music, Spotify, Audiomack, Boom play, etc .. and let's see what we have ...

Please you have know reasonable arguments at all ...
First , Hall of Fame is not popularity. It is historical significance. That is why Fela Anikulapo-Kuti is inducted, because his recordings permanently changed music history. It is not a chart. It is an archive of cultural impact.

Now your streaming argument is childish.

Of course Wizkid has more streams today, he is a current pop artist. Fela died in 1997. Streaming measures who is trending, not who built the sound.

Here is the question you cannot answer:

How many major artists have sampled, rebuilt or structured their sound around Wizkid’s music?

Would Wizkid be relevant in the next 5 yearshuh

Do you even have the mental capacity to understand this argument? Because argument can exposed ones level of IQ and I am beginning to question yours seriously

Musical artiste with the most awards is Wizkid, even more than the so called Fela, and yet people still try to water down his impact musically.... Lol...

Well, numbers don't lie
Ignorance is tha you!!! 🤣🤣🤣

Chai!


You need education

The real people that matter in music are the ones other great musicians still study and sample decades later and that is Fela Anikulapo-Kuti. Even Beyoncé openly acknowledged Fela’s influence on her African-inspired work, and Burna Boy has repeatedly built and referenced his sound from Fela’s legacy. Even the Wizkid was sampling Fela grin

So let me ask you one simple, question: how many serious global artists have sampled or rebuilt their music around Wizkid the way they do Fela? Popularity gives streams. Originality gives blueprints. Fela is still the bluepr

Wizkid does not have more real Grammy recognition than Fela, his only Grammy link is as a featured act on a Beyoncé project, while Fela has Grammy Hall of Fame recognition (Zombie) and a Special Merit (Lifetime Achievement) award. You’re comparing feature credit inside another person’s win to permanent institutional honours, that’s not “numbers”, that’s ignorance. Fela created a genre and a global cultural movement; Wizkid is successful inside an industry that already exists..

Thank you. Educate the illiterate quoting Wizkid as legend.

Ask him any positive impact Wizkid song has had in his life now, he will start mentioning big yansh and breast.

But listen to Fela, a Legend whose songs has strong positive impacts to anyone who listens it till date.

Well, I won't doubt if that boy is a Genz, there's how they think.
Being Gen Z is not an excuse for stupidity and ignorance ..

It’s just an indication of a failed society, parenting and personal laziness not to know Fela…
It’s poor education … how many of us were born during Felas prime? But we still understood what good music is and took our time to learn from the past.

You don’t have to be born during the times of legend but proper education and personal curiosity should make one learn and remember their impacts.
Why would someone say they don’t know people like Mohammed Ali, Bob Marley, Michael Jackson, Fela, Martin Luther king… most especially as a black person? It is a thing of shame not something to claim Gen Z

Talking about the eras both legends reigned, I already said both shouldn't be compared cos there are many factors that will make it difficult to put both stats head to head... But one thing is certain, considering the zeal we all witnessed in the journey of Wiz to stardom, I can confidently tell you he would have still be successful during the Fela era, cos he would definitely follow the trend of demand from the then listeners....
Fela conquered his own generation and still conquering 27 years after his death…

It is Wizkid that we should be praying remains relevant in the next 5 years while he is still alive.
He hasn’t even resigned and how many Wizkid songs is still relevant today?

Wizkif is still alive and not a single one of his album made it into the Grammy hall of fame, imagine Fela’s album “Zombie” from an era of no auto tune still making it into the hall of fame..
if Fela was in this generation, he would have won at least 10 Grammy awards and that’s no joke…

As at now, Wizkid is old glory !

Stop speaking grammar thinking it would make your argument smart… because it’s completely dead on arrival..

Even at that, I still believe Fela gave his generation what they wanted and Wizkid is doing same likewise... Fela pulled huge crowd cos of his lyrics, guts, lifestyle, and knowledge of music... His music is still relatable cos the government of Nigeria is still bad till date , trust me, if Africa could match up with other continents, I bet Fela style of music will sound irritating to newer generations, except for few people who are up to date with history...


Wiz on the other hand, people love him not really because he understood music 🎵, but his melodious voice got a lot of his fans captivated, couple with his lifestyle and aura.. Just like Fela, as the world evolves and new generation emerges, his style of music also fades away....

But both will stand the test of time before they eventually fades away... No doubt
You are saying both will stand the test of time , hahahahha

Do you know Fela music has already stood the test of time? Fela died 28 years ago and you are still arguing about him today.
You are comparing raw art with auto tune ?

How many musical instruments can Wizkid play?
You are comparing originality to digital voice and sampled music.

If Fela had existed this generation, with the kind of talents he has…. He would have totally buried the likes of Wizkid and make them his backup dancers 😂

Oga, better wake up from your delusions..

There’s a reason the world global stars still listen to Fela to sample their own music.
There’s a reason Hollywood still use Felas music for their movies

Please wake up and stop delusions…. Wizkid is good, But there’s zero room for comparison with Fela …
Saying they are great in their own ways is still arrogance and pure delusions
