Without his father he sang with live band outside the shores of Nigeria and was nominated for a Grammy award.

What is bad in calling the lunatic Obi an opportunist? Do you know how many times you Obiidiots have attacked Tinubu?

Is Obi your god that you think no one can call out?

Unpopular opinion: Psquare are more legendary than Fela the overhyped weed lord with zero melody in his songs, just an average afrobeat singer that talks about the evils of the government and nothing more. Even most of you claiming Fela this and Fela that don’t even listen to his music, y’all just jump on the bandwagon of the same ol story they told us. Seun on the other hand is a talentless mofo who’s preying on the legacy of his dad, Psquare no be your mate bro, stick to smoking Indian hemp
Who let the dogs out!!??

Mildly put, my very self plus my 11 kids, my two wives and 10 concubines have never heard the name Seun Keti talk more of hearing any of his certainly depressing songs.
A new Nigeria is POssible.
Vote LP

Pls list where those piss of shit bloody rat smelling IBOs have performed. If not for MayD and Akon that made all those rat famous.

He was only invited for those shows because of his surname. Tell me one of his songs you know and get 10k right now. Psquare are Legends bro and on a normal level, should not be mentioned in the same sentence as Seun Kuti.

Everyone has the right to contest. You guys should also learn to respect that.

Why did Seun call Obi an opportunist?

Seun is a baby!! Without his father, he's a nobody. Ordinary shrine, he can't sell it out.


Those saying

OBIdients should stop what?

Between Obidients and Seun who started the fight?

The answer is Seun.

Out of all the Candidates, why did he single Peter Obi as an opportunist?

Abii you dey get selective amnesia?
So your point is he does not have a right to the opinion that Obi is opportunistic?
What is wrong in singling out Obi or any other person he chooses to single out?
I do not get it
Maybe you can explain
Is Obi a sacred person that cannot be singled out?

Seun is a fool...he should Goan sit down and think about his life...how many times has a played Montreal ...smooth jazz...double time jazz....Real time jazz..or standard classic music and staged one ...or an opera and make it a well documented ...and for the records am a musician and seyi shouldn't patronize us as if he does jazz music ...he as Afro musician ... His father's style has some close similarities with jazz cos it's sheet music but it's NT jazz ..

I understand his trying to portray himself has a real music person but that's a fat lie...have been to their shrine many times and what they do isn't so as classic his trying to portray...make he rest abeg

At the Grammys, nominees take home thousands of dollars’ worth of swag, including everything from perfume samples to weeklong getaways at the spa. The 2018 Grammy gift bag had an estimated total value of $30,000, Harper’s Bazaar reported. And the best part? You don’t even have to win to get a bag. Everyone gets one.

After this election we are going to be aware of certain things
1)the problem of Nigeria is tribalism and not all about religion but mostly tribalism
And hausas are not really tribalistic the way we thought
But the yorubas are more tribalistic

Because as at the time Buhari was sick and travelling for medical attention we all was clamouring for him to hand over to a healthy and vibrant Osinbajo. We regretted our action of being stupid to elect a sick old man

But now we have a vibrant and healthy Peter obi contesting but the yorubas because of tribalism wants us to install tinubu again knowing fully well that the world will mock us

The worse part of it is that the pain and memory of the incessant travel for medical check up by Buhari is still very fresh in our mind.not like it happened 20 years ago. It just happened yesterday..

And for all those quoting me. Please am not any of this tribe not igbo, yoruba or hausa. I'm from the South South
South south is not a tribe

This reply from Seun is loud.

He is a better musician than the singing duo.

He may not be commercially successful, but has a better musical profile than the singing twins.
why wasn’t he successfully commercial if he his good.Then I am better than messi

Yes in Ibo land being richer implies superiority.So I know you must be Ibo
It does not work like that with other people and you folk will never get that
That is why a nobody asks where you got your money in Ibo land
Despite all your so called travelling you people fail to grasp this elementary fact
No matter how much money you have as long as you do not feed a person it is not his business
Learn how to have a conversation without steering it to who has more money if you are not conversing with Your fellow IbosI

IT IS BARBARIC
next thing you will hear
I can feed your generation

PSquare are just studio singers.



Seun Kuti is a proper musician. He knows music. He understands music.



That is why he has performed in places where they would never admit studio singers like PSquare.
which places?
Shrines?

Below is Seun Kuti post on Instagram where he accused Peter of calling him a tribalist.


Let me say this, this Seun kuti is nowhere close to psquare.He should be compared to Korede bello.Even his father,I don’t really know the hype to his music.To me it’s basically trash just hyped by the yorubas

Joke apart, I'm no student of Nigerian music, but I know the three musicians you mentioned above very well and can sing along to at least five of their songs each. In fact, as a student around 2011, I used to read all through the night with MI's rap playing back to back on my PC.
But you see this dirty bloke you call Seun Kuti, I repeat that I have never heard of him talk more of hearing any song he made. To hell with his audio achievements! They don't make Nigerians dance like PSquare have been doing for decades now.
The same thing with me, you said my mind

Those greedy fellows are something else. Probably some of these Igbo don't understand the word 'tribalist'. All of them are supporting Peter Obi and they are even canvasing for votes for him in the church. The reason why they are supporting him is because he is Igbo and nothing more. Yoruba are the most liberal in this country. Some of my Yoruba friends and relatives are supporting Obi despite some of them know what's at stake. I wonder how that one can open his mouth and call someone a tribalist despite his open support for Peter Obi. February 25 is around the corner. We shall see wonder.
I love this election season

It has revealed a lot of things

Nigeria has become so much divided

But I like it like that

Everyone go dey him own lane


Because we are not meant to be together

And all these tribal bigotry is showing it

Las Las everyone go dey him own lane

Who the f*ck knows you and your entire useless piss of shit family. If nobody knows seun why will they invite him to perform on the best stage in the world. Pls list where those piss of shit bloody rat smelling IBOs have performed. If not for MayD and Akon that made all those rat famous. Is it not the same shit square that stole Ghanaian music, awon werey, awon omo elede.

Werey show us the international stages that SHIT square had performed. Show us any successful Internationally recognised f**king IBO artist.
1. Jidenna
Born on 4th May 1985, Jidenna Theodore Mobisson popularly known as Jidenna, is an American rapper and singer.
Jidenna is signed to Janelle Monáe’s Wondaland Records label and distributed through Epic Records and became world-famous with his 2015 first official single, called “Classic Man” featuring GianArthur which he quickly followed with his 2017-released debut album “Chief”. The song which was in heavy rotation throughout the United States debuted at number 49 on the Billboard Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Airplay chart.
Jidenna was born in Wisconsin Rapids, Wisconsin, to Tama Mobisson, an accountant, and Oliver Mobisson, a Nigerian Igbo academic. He grew up partially in Nigeria, where his father was working as a professor of computer science at Enugu State University. When Mobisson was six years old, the family moved back to the United States.
Proud of his African roots, Jidenna makes it a point to represent Nigerian culture through his music and his unique sense of fashion. In 2019, he outdoored his sophomore album “85 to Africa” which spots guest appearances from Nigerian acts Mr. Eazi and Seun Kuti. Highlighting his intent to bridge the gap between the States and Africa with his music, Jidenna describes the album as “the soundtrack someone might listen to if they were traveling from America to Africa.”

2. Chika
Chika is an American rapper, songwriter, poet, model, and actress who garnered attention on social media for her viral freestyles. She rose to fame when her video dubbed “A Letter to Kanye Omari West” went viral in 2018, criticizing West for his public support of Donald Trump and endorsement of political commentator Candace Owens.

3. Maxo Kream
Born on 29th March 1990, Emekwanem Ogugua Biosah Jr, professionally known as Maxo Kream, is a Nigerian-American rapper and songwriter from Houston-Texas.

4. Dax
Although this artiste isn’t technically an American, he is very much active on the US rap scene.
Daniel Nwosu Jr, born on 22nd March 1994, better known by his stage name Dax, is a Nigerian Canadian rapper, singer, and songwriter. Dax’s birthplace might be in Canada but his parents were born in Nigeria. Having lived his formative years in Canada, he later moved to Los Angeles, California to pursue his rap career. Dax rose to fame for the official music video of his song “Cash Me Outside” featuring Danielle Bregoli. In April 2021, he ended speculations about his roots and origins when he shared a photo of the Nigerian flag tatted on his neck with the caption: “Yes. I am Nigerian.”

5. Tobi Nwigwe
Tobechukwu Dubem Nwigwe, who goes by the stage name Tobe Nwigwe is an American rapper and singer from the Alief neighborhood of Houston, Texas born on 8th March 1987.

Nwigwe is a first-generation child of Nigerian immigrants hailing from the Igbo ethnicity. His name Tobechukwu translates to “Praise God” in the Igbo dialect. The rapper began to gain a following through his Instagram and YouTube posts and videos which he usually posted every Sunday. Since August 2016, he has posted an original song and video every Sunday across social media. His music has garnered a lot of attention, with Michelle Obama, once putting his song “I’m Dope” on her workout playlist. In 2022, Tobi received a nomination for Best New Artist at the 65th Grammy Awards.

6. Tyler, The Creator
Tyler Gregory Okonma, born in Los Angeles, California in March 1991, is an American rapper, and a founding member of the Hip-Hop collective, Odd Future who goes by the moniker Tyler, The Creator.

Tyler is currently one of hip-hop’s most critically acclaimed acts having already won two Grammy Awards, three BET Hip Hop Awards, a BRIT Award, and an MTV Video Music Award. The “Earfquake” hitmaker’s Nigerian father has Igbo ancestry, and his American mother is of mixed African-American and European-Canadian descent. Tyler claims to have never met his father.

However, in a recent interview, the rapper spoke about growing to embrace his Nigerian last name more and more, he said:

“I always thought my last name was weird, but whatever. I started f*king with it more around 2016, and then I started putting it on my album covers… I really f*k with that name now… My full name, Tyler Okonma, in all caps, just looks really cool…. So you might see more of that, I don’t know. I’m getting older, and I think when people get older, they start realizing s**t and liking things they didn’t like. You just start changing.
