Seun Kuti, Peter Okoye reconcile after 2023 election feud

Nigerian music stars Seun Kuti and Peter Okoye (Mr P) have finally reconciled, years after their heated social media clash over the 2023 presidential election. The pair, who fell out over opposing views on Labour Party candidate Peter Obi, were recently seen embracing at a nightclub in Lagos, signalling an end to the rift.​ Their feud began in early 2023 when Seun Kuti described Obi as an “opportunist”, a remark that prompted a sharp response from Peter Okoye, who questioned Kuti’s relevance and success as an artiste. Both men went on to trade personal jabs online, dragging family legacies and careers into the argument and splitting many fans along political and tribal lines.​​ Seun Kuti was quoted as saying, “We are artistes, we can’t be fighting over politicians,” while Okoye is also reported to have agreed that it was time […]

Sampling Fela music doesn’t make you him – Seun Kuti

Afrobeats singer Seun Kuti has cautioned Nigerian artists against calling themselves the “New Fela”, insisting that sampling or remixing his late father’s music does not make them equivalent to the Afrobeat legend. Speaking on the Hits Don’t Lie podcast, he said while some have done good samples of Fela’s songs, it is “crazy” for anyone to claim they are his dad simply because they use his sound.​ Seun pointed to big Nigerian stars like Wizkid and Burna Boy, who have sampled Fela, noting that this trend of declaring oneself a new version of a late icon seems peculiar to Nigeria. He questioned why nobody refers to themselves as “the new Bob Marley” elsewhere, arguing that such labels show how “wild” things can get in the Nigerian music scene.​ He stressed that Fela was not just about music but about activism, […]
