alaye get a life, stop feeding on ur father glory.

StoryHaven:
He has the right to defend his father's legacy. Stop displaying stu... pi.. -dity Upandan Nairaland. For a rogue like portable to be calling himself "New Fela" is it not an insult on his father?

You guys just jump on people's opinion without proper reasoning.
Fela was a fighter.

Who among these guys can face several governments including the military squarely and criticise them like fela did. He was jailed many times, brutalised many times and he still continued till his last breath.

Just a public warning was what sent Idris Abdukareem to exile in Ghana. Just an open warning by Obasanjo.

Fela's legacy is beyond music.

Next time reason wella before posting.

If people outside stop talking about Jesus or outside mecca stop talking about Mohammed, what did you think will happen to such names?


They will soon fade away and go into oblivion.


Celebrity is not for his household alone but every fan that wishes to idolise him/her

Seun!!!!!!!!!!!!, not our Seun. That Seun!

Man should stop seeking for validation, we know you, Fela's son and cheif advocate, cool. We've heard but make your own name too.

He has been nominated for Grammy a couple of times.
What is your own Legacy.
If Seun can be recognized by the most prestigious music award in the world and nominated, has he not done well for himself?

Wetin be your own Legacy?

helinues aka the fake old man no get level

Seeplusplus:
E be like na only me weh never for once in my life, rate Fela. Maybe because I was a kid during his lifetime but... I no just de see reason behind all this hype aje.
Any small thing Fela this, Fela that
Abegie

That makes 2 of us bro.
You're in good company.

Being Fela son doesn't make u fela we know

It can never and will never make them Fela!

Why is Seun Kuti behaving like Sikiru Ayinde Barrister children,let the dead rest

This guy should go an sit down somewhere! What's he even known for apart from Fela's name! Guy,create your own brand. Fela is for everybody

You are right to a little extent. Not completely right. If you want to claim to be a Christian make sure your behaviour is Christ-like. A person bearing John or Peter and is into 419 or Yahoo business is not a Christian.

Who ever wants to claim to be Fela should be ready to have other qualities he had aside music.

They have not even yet drilled Portable the other day and he was crying.

Did you read it in any history where Fela cried even when being brutalised by the police or soldiers?

Seun is on point.

Fela wasn't a Christian but no politician or military leader was able to buy his conscience.
He stood firmly on what he believed.

The other day a polical party gave Portable an amount he never had before, despite Davido being nice to him, he was shading Davido because Davido belongs to the other party.

Omo, Fela is gone.

Non of these boys are like him.

No comparison

If dem no pay for the sampling sue them.

Seun should just keep quiet and let artist and fans decide.

EngrchidiG25:
Why sample fela without bringing returns to his family, is what make Seun angry.

You are a

richiemcgold:
If he/she is not Fela, then it isn't Fela; be it Dede, Lagbaja, Femi, Wizkid or even seun himself. All of you are not Fela and there can never be another Fela.

.. make una stop using Fela to shine. Everyone should create his own legacy, including Fela's children.

The children have the right to use FELA's name

helinues:
Seun, what's your own legacy that you have stopped living about your late father's legacies?

Mr man allow him to brag about his dad. I was had a tenant that reasons like you, when ever my lawyer requested for house rent from that my tenant. He will start saying things like “ if it wasnt my father will I be a land lord” That I should go out of my father house to rent my own house. Lol. He left is own father house to come and be owing my own father house rent money. Lol

oga REST.
These new year na afrobeats artists offend you

Everyone just spewing trash here.
Seun is correct.
...as for all y'all dolts here trying to undermine his career, Seun makes authentic music and he's Grammy-nominated.

dederocs:

Burna boy go pay dues tire. Almost all his songs are felaeque

A copy can never come close to the original.

Atleast he has a good father's legacy to live on.

Olat4421:
Dis guy is just disgracing Fela he thinks he is defending him, what is he even fighting at, u are not even happy today artist are still keeping ur father legacy, if does artist stop sampling or mentioning ur father as a reference u think d name will still be as relevant has it is, ur weed is too much,all great people are always remember, and dat make Dem still relevant, go and listen to JAY Z lyrics FOREVER YOUNG

Stop yarning dust.

Seun only has a problem with people trying to disparage Fela by comparing him to the shallow artists of nowadays.

Artists who don't know more than she tell me say. Those artists are great in their own right but leave Fela out of the comparison. He's in a league of his own.

All of una go dey form misguided woke up and down

Eriokanmi:
Stop trending on your papa glory seun kuti. Only failures do so. Write your own story.

Afterall Fela himself copied the likes of James brown and Tony Allen's styles and fused it into his afrobeat genre. Nobody has the monopoly of music and styles. Go and listen to fela's beats and watch his dance steps, then match it with James Brown's crazy down steps on stage, they're quite similar. Michael Jackson copied James Brown's dance steps verbatim and added it to his.

If the likes of whizzy do the same, they're not going to be forst and last. How many royalties did fela pay to brown and allen?

But fela never claimed to be the new James brown. Borrowing inspiration is not the problem.

And the saying that children should surpass their father is not without exception to the rule.

The likes of Fela are exceptional, you don't surpass them just because you're their child.

Name one global phenomenon who has been surpassed by their Child. Is it bob Marley or Michael Jackson abi na Kwam1 coz Kwame 1 one get children wey dey sing since o, abi na Zidane pikin wey dey do goalie, how him wan pass him papa

Yes. Your children are meant to be greater than you. They are meant to do great exploit. I doubt you are a Christian

it's normal thing even in football we have heard d new maradona new Pele new Messi new Ronaldo, we ave seen yamal compare to Messi does dat mean yamal has achieve Messi achievement?so u people here just take unnecessary offense in everything, if dey stop sampling him or wanna be like him do u think his name will still be as strong as dis

Show scripture, you no fit

Where you quoted, I just shown to you what was written there

I doubt if you do sunday school in your church at all. A popular saying by your pastor or people praying that way does make it right. Provide scriptural back up now...you no fit
