Youngest son of the pioneer and king of Afrobeat and a musician himself, Seun Kuti has responded to American rapper, Kanye West who claims that the spirit of Seun’s father, Fela Anikulapo Kuti lives in him.
Kanye who arrived in Uganda recently and was spotted vibing to some afrobeat songs including that of Wizkid had stated that he makes good music and also is the best act in the planet because the spirit of great African legends like Fela, Bob Marley, and 2Pac lives in him.
According to Kanye;
The music is the best on the planet. I am the best recording artiste… we rather, because the spirit flow through me, the spirit of Fela, the spirit of Marley, the spirit of Pac, flows through me, we know who the best.
