He said that whenever the Feel crooner visits the Afrikan Shrine in Lagos, he comes with about 100 people and does not pay the gate fee. However, he excluded him from his wedding guests list.

According to Seun Kuti, he was pained by the act and could not sleep for a week. He made this revelation during a chat with content creator Isbae U on Curiosity Made Me Ask.

Isbae U asked Seun why his music does not trend and he noted that he only trends in the intelligent community. This left a shocking look on Isbae U’s face.

The content creator also asked the Afrobeats singer why he has not been able to achieve what his late father and Afrobeats legend Fela Kuti achieved in music. In Seun’s response, he said he leads his father’s Egypt 80 band and he was nominated for a Grammy Award which his father never got when he was alive.
