It is because of people like you that he find it hard to keep his mouth shut, because you won't keep your own mouth shut. You are the one having the problem of misinterpreting what he said. He simply told you that he is not his father, what can be more right than that. His father is Fela, he is Femi, they were both created for different times and for different purposes. He has tried the best that he can for his father's legacy by keeping the shrine going and promoting Afro beat to the world in his own capabilities. Most of Femi's songs are actually aimed at the ills in the system, just like his father's. What more do you want from him. He is not his father, that does not rubbish Fela, that simply means they both have different purposes in life, allow Femi to pursue his own purpose and stop over burdening him. You have no right what so ever to insult him by calling him incompetent, he is someone's father as well.

You sound like an educated person, so I expect you to be more enlightened on issues like this.
Femi could have replied with "I tried but couldn't, learnt alot from him though, anyway we shall get there" and there are also a thousand ways to be polite and humble as regards to his father. As far as I'm concerned, Femi didn't do well with such statement regarding baba Fela, his own dad. Period!
I'm more than enlightened on various issues. The fact that I disagreed with your perspective doesn't mean I'm not...

You made no sense and you will still not not make any sense if you keep spewing rubbish.
Do you even listen to his songs?
Go listen to his songs then come back to comment.
