He publicly shaded Afrobeat and further outlined that it preaches nothing and has no substance since most artists who embody the genre are not engulfed with the view of mortality.
He added that most artists in Nigeria are all about the fun and fiesta ignoring the reality of life which he often refers to a meaningful genre of music.
He finalised that it’s quite outgrowing for some Nigerian Afrobeat stars to be considerable when making fun music so far life is not all about fun.
Some Nigerians were not pleased with his view and heavily lambasted him for demeaning Afrobeat.
