Mr Whizkid or whatever you call yourself, not only are you not bigger than Abàmì eda by any yardstick. Even in one thousand lifetimes, you will never be as big as a strand of his public hair.

Your problem with Seun is nothing to do with his dad, so a little rat like you need to pipe down.

Wizkid is a stupid animal.

Who is he to insult Fela and his son like that?

Is he mad?

Little nasty rat, with his crap so called music with no groove, no melody, singing utter rubbish.

What people worship him for, I have no idea. His music is complete trash.



He actually thinks he's "bigger than Fela".

Does he know how many execs from Motown to Sony music and others who flew down to Lagos to beg Fela to sign for them, and he said NO?

Based on his anti-imperialist principles as a social crusader for the Nigerian masses?

Can he, Wizkid say no to any of those people, with his slave head? Who is the Real hungry one between you and Kuti?

Nasty little wretch.

I no blame am, na the dumb following wey dey push am I blame. 😄

Baba as an only son
Bros i get money, i no go lie...

PUNANI01:

I be nice person I dey help, but na insults I no dey like especially when na my fellow guy dey dish am

That particular set of people are the problem of Nigeria. Let them leave Nigeria and watch how the country will turn to a sweet home.
The are too c00rupt and they lack orientation.

kwam1 is a grandpa ... what do you feel is the age gap between ganusi and kwam1

let me even assist you ...fayose insulted OBJ back recently

Regardless, I reiterate Yoruba is the most respectful tribe .. we dont need 100% to consider it fact

Okay. 😏

Wizkid must be crazy in Nigeria.
He no know anything about fela
Fela kuti?
Haa
Wizkid don finish.
It's all over.
Fela of Africa?

3kay945:
I wanted to reply you but had to pause and asked myself this question.

Do you think this guy have sense

I doubt it!

Emotion and hate birth out jealousy and it is obvious that you are a disciple of one of the superintendent known as Seun Kuti. I wish you happy birthday to that.

Even your pp@apaa@ dare not make this type of delulu comment. Pikin wey dem born yesterday.

I know the implication of taking cheap weed.

Someone once said wizkid smokes for breakfast.
Wizkid career can't be bigger than his body

Fela was a legend that Wizkid can never be...

Wizkid has attained wealthy and commercial success (internationally) that is far bigger than Fela.

Wizkid should know that he can only drag Seun. Insulting Fela would incur the wrath of many music lovers globally.

Fela of Africa?

Wizkid has sang song that were clearly inspired by Fela..
All our super stars have at least one song (sometimes 12+ songs) that are inspired by Fela.

Seun Kuti is a stupid guy but Wizkid spoke foolishly on this topic. Why they warn us not to engage with a fool otherwise people wouldn't know who is the foolish one.

SisterAnn:
Okay. 😏

gudnite tew

Na big time mess up if Wizkid actually said this. Baba Fela was not just a musician and Wizkid can never achieve a quarter of what Fela achieved.

Apart from music what else does Wizkid have?

But

Tendd:
Burna,P square,Davido, Wizkid and a host of other present day artists gave the much relevance and significance to Afro beats and Nigerian music than Fela and the other old artists ever did.Fela's music doesn't appeal to a lot of Africans or other nationals.Fela is just like Salif keita,Manu Dibango,Yousou N'dio and other old African Artists that were liked by some people but not globally.His son must stop the comparison.He is very much disturbed by substance abuse.

How many of this 3 had a life that was worth emulating....but when we talk about i onic singers in world history we will talk about them

Mind you wizkid won't even make top 20 greatest African musicians in history

They made afro beat know ..why didn't they create there own style ...

If fella hadn't create afro beat...most of the would have been singing RnB from the whites....most of them would have been doing other genre that would have made them a minor cos it would have been copied from other nations..

What can wizkid create in music ...someone who enters studio and just vibe ...how many songs has wizkid written which has powerful lyrics that could make people cry in the next 30 years

Fela write afro....wrote it in standard music...taught his band...wrote brass sections to his music

Is the idiot wizkid even playing afro music....check his last album ...how many afro beat are there ?? .

Who in Wizkids lineage has created or written music in a new genre with his name on it ...

Wizkid in the next 20 years will be known as a good entertainer ...not a class that can be placed besides the great of all time...it's not just about winning Grammy please....did u preach with your music??

In terms of being a role model,Fela wasn't somebody anyone would want look up to or even want for a father.Drugs, promiscuous behavior, rashness etc are some of his undoings.Sadly,his negative social life is still what many youths are copying and emulating in this era. For example lnsecurity is high because of drugs usage by the perpetrators,a habit he,Fela did publicly.

reddingtonblack:
gudnite tew

Goodnight tuyutu.

Wizkid song "sweet love", he sampled Fela's Shakara Oloje...

My brother, the one that inspired you is greater than you even though you did greater things than them (commercially).

Fela studied music....created afro beat...wrote his vocals....created his drum lines ..write horns lines ...played everything live

What has anyone in Wizkids lineage created in music

Like he has brain touch

Ouch!

As the name implies Wiz "Kid" I have nothing to say to a disrespectful kid.

Fela was never interested in wealth that is where you get it wrong

He was genuinely interested in uplifting people
In Kalakuta Republic he was feeding hundreds of people
The one thing that would get you expelled from that place was tribalism
He was totally detribalized and lifted so many people


He never sang about bling or money as something to pursue
So to me there us no basis for comparing them on the money basis
Fela went to prison. many times and was prepared to die for what he believed in which was good governance

On the music front
He played several instruments , was a composer and producer not all these computer or electronic stuff

He performed live in front of real Nigerians at the shrine and even foreigners like Paul McCartney and current French President went there

Fela went around universities across Nigeria to perform live

Many young people don't understand how much young people loved Fela and his music then

He definitely was not impressed with money or luxury so that is a non issue

B4 I attend to the topic I'll say this firstly, it's a warning I always give people who care to listen

Before you start quarrell...avoid short people

As for the topic, that fellas son brought this on himself, I knew this day would come but I didn't know short Wizkid will be provoked into saying it ( I always expected him to say it unprovoked).

Fella was unlucky to have been big in an era when ai and streaming was unknown compared to this lucky young genz nitwits called celebrities. I tell my kids, your generation will find making money the easiest thing to do.
The trending papatouti song was ai generated, raking in mad revenue as we speak meanwhile the original artists who birthed the song many years ago is irrelevant in the scheme of things.

For crying out loud ..fella originated afro, he would have being in the realms of Micheal jackson and Co if he had accepted international promotion, marketing and distribution deals, he would have being know in every household worldwide for generations to come just like Micheal.

Anyways let's pray not to birth sons and daughters that will bring shame to our hardwork.
This shit should never have happened but that prodigal son of fela asked for it. He should get a name for himself.

anyway I agree that seun kuti is even an irrelevant musician, but wizkid irrationality self en,
Well no problem sha

These genz don abuse internet and run see-finsih for face with pride.

If govt should ban the use of yansh, money, weed and bling in music or music videos with jail term attached to defaulters.

The likes of Wizkid will grow broke overnight because Dem cowards, keyboard cowards.

But a fela would defy such orders risking it all for the music he loves. That was fela.
In an era when there was no Internet or CCTV, to go missing was a snap of the finger, as easy as ABC.
This legend sang and said it all, daring the government to do their worse.

That my friends is a legend and a movement! not these disrespectful nitwits claiming woke yet cant ask government for accountability even behind faceless keyboards.


Cowards!

Fela was not unlucky at all
you seem to be wanting things for him without evidence he wanted them .

I do not see Fela buying a Ferrarri of bling if he was around today

Fela was not happy with the way the country was run and that is what he sang about most of the time

If he just had good melody alone he would not be that relevant today

If he was around today he would have sung about Wike, Malami Tinubu Snake swallowing money etc

I thought they said the Yoruba respect elders

You must have to listen to other African artists that played during Fela's era before you make those bold claims.This would help you understand that most African artists mainly from west and central Africa had also similar genre just like Fela.The likes of Franco Luambo,Papa Wemba,Kalle from DRC,Manu Dibango,Salif Keita,Yossour N'dour,virtually most of Ghanaian artists in that era had very much similar Afro beats genre.There wasn't anything different to what Fela was doing.They had their bands,went on concerts, traveled abroad for shows.There is this false belief or common narration about Fela,among Nigerians and l think we need to explore.

Conversely,Afro beats of this generation, just like other genres has evolved over time and it's mainly a central and west African evolution dominated by Nigerian Musicians.It is catchy, appealing,also cool to dance to unlike the Afro beats of old.Fela was part of the old just like many in his time.He didn't invent nor was he God father of anything like some of you want people to belief..
