Yeah, that's because Fela was a musician in the true sense of the word. A music who broke the confines of convention to create his own sound and genre; in addition, he was an activist of the highest calibre.

Olamide, you're good, very good. But the gulf between you and Fela is like from Bariga to the Bahamas. You haven't done a 1000th of what Fela did to garner that international respect.

He should close his mouth nd seat down hw dear him compare fela to yr local area boys rep. Til u finish yr career u can't do or reach half of wht fela did. Yeye

u better becareful
