A bitter online dispute between Afrobeat singer Seun Kuti and political activist Aisha Yesufu has escalated, with both parties exchanging scathing insults in separate videos circulating on social media.

The controversy began when Seun Kuti advised Aisha Yesufu to liberate herself from her hijab before advocating for Nigerian women's liberation. Aisha responded with a blistering attack, vowing to physically harm Seun and dismissing his music career.

Meanwhile, in a retaliatory video, Seun Kuti recounted a past encounter with Aisha on a TV show. He claimed he endured her body odor for two hours. Also, he alleged that Aisha belittled his success compared to American music mogul Jay Z.

Seun stated, "I said the private sector should be held responsible for Nigeria's economic state. She replied that I'm not a capitalist like Jay Z because I haven't achieved success." Additionally, he mocked Aisha's loyalty to former Presidential candidate, Peter Obi, asking when she would be accountable to Obidients.

Lastly, the feud has sparked intense debate on social media, with many calling for civility and respect in public discourse.

Nigerian social critic, commentator, and singer Seun Kuti has addressed the recent controversy surrounding activist Martins Vincent Otse, aka Verydarkman.

During a live session on Friday, October 25, 2024, Kuti clarified his relationship with Verydarkman, stating that he supports him as a friend but does not control his actions.

"I don't like charity, but I like letting people do what they want… Let them show their real intentions," Seun Kuti stated.

Lastly, Kuti's clarification aims to dispel speculation about his involvement with Verydarkman's activities.

Nigerian rapper Falz has addressed allegations made by social media activist Martins Vincent Otse, aka Verydarkman, regarding his involvement in Bobrisky's jail term.

In an interview on the Afrobeat podcast with Adesope, Falz denied the claims, stating that VDM "set up a ring light and said nonsense" about him and his family.

Also, Falz explained that he couldn't ignore the allegations, prompting him to take legal action against Verydarkman. "You can't just sit back and watch someone spew falsehoods about you," he emphasized.

Meanwhile, the rapper revealed that he contacted music industry veteran Seun Kuti, who may have intervened. This led to a phone call from Verydarkman. However, Falz stated that Verydarkman continued to make baseless claims during the call.

Additionally, this development follows a lawsuit filed by Falz's sister against VDM for defamatory statements about her brother and father.

Lastly, Falz's response has sparked renewed interest in the controversy, with fans and critics awaiting further developments.

Seun Kuti & Egypt 80 - Move Lyrics

E no easy for the world today
You know that
It’s so dark, we need light
And every day na different story o
Say everywhere na different worry o

So I dey face my darkness
'Cause light dey the other side
And I dey face my wrongs cos right dey the other side
And when I face my fear na there I find courage
Only family, no entourage
I meet the poor and they so rich
I meet the rich and they so poor
All they want is more more more

Sometimes I know, sometimes I don’t, sometimes I’m trying
Sometimes it’s no, sometimes it’s yes, but I’m moving

E no easy for the world today
You know that
It’s so dark, we need light
And every day na different story o
Say everywhere na different worry o

Many man walk the path, but not many man finish
Dem no get the mind
Dem say dem be lions, but many man sheepish
Dem no get the mind
I say many man walk the path, but not many man finish
Dem no get the mind
Dem say dem be lions, but many man sheepish
Dem no get the mind
Dem no want the smoke cos e dey hot in the kitchen
Dem no get the mind
Dem no want the noise cos e dey loud in the trenches
Dem no get the mind
Dem no be like the general wey dey face evil with the people dem
Dem no get the mind
Dem no be like the general for the battlefield with the people dem oo
Dem no get the mind

Sometimes I know, sometimes I don’t, sometimes I’m trying
Sometimes it’s no, sometimes it’s yes, but I’m moving

I’m moving, I’m moving
I’m moving, I’m moving
I’m moving, I’m moving
I’m moving, ah!

Moving for nature
Moving, grooving
Moving with the energy
Moving, grooving
Moving for justice
Moving, grooving
Moving with the energy
Moving, grooving
Movement of the people
Moving, grooving
Moving with the energy
Moving, grooving
I’m all the way
Moving, grooving
I’m all the way
Moving, grooving
I’m all the way
Moving, grooving
I’m all the way
Moving, grooving

Move it like this, and we
Moving, grooving
Move it like this, and we
Moving, grooving
Move it like this, and we
Moving, grooving
Move it like this, and we
Moving, grooving

E no easy for the world today
You know that
It’s so dark, we need light
And every day na different story o
Say everywhere na different worry o

Nigerian Afrobeat legend Seun Kuti has addressed his relationship with online activist Martins Vincent Otse, popularly known as Verydarkman.

This is amid the ongoing controversy surrounding Bobrisky and the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).

Seun Kuti, son of music icon Fela Kuti, emphasized that he has no control over Verydarkman's online activities. He explained that he couldn't influence Verydarkman's decision to leak an audio call involving Bobrisky and an EFCC official.

Using the leaked audio as context, Seun clarified that Verydarkman only informed him about Bobrisky's alleged bribe with the EFCC, which he wanted to expose. Seun denied having prior knowledge of the recording or its contents.

"I didn't have any say in how Verydarkman interpreted or shared the clip," Seun stated. "If I had tried to stop him, he wouldn't have listened."

Also, Seun apologized for Verydarkman's manner of addressing senior lawyer, Femi Falana in the viral video, acknowledging it was inappropriate.

Meanwhile, Verydarkman, has been at the center of the controversy, sparking heated debates online. Seun Kuti's clarification aims to establish boundaries and distance himself from Verydarkman's actions.

Afrobeat singer Seun Kuti has made explosive claims about the Nigerian music industry, suggesting that some artists are involved in money laundering.

Basically, in a video rant, Kuti expressed frustration about the perceived wealth disparity among musicians. He questioned how some colleagues, with limited discographies, can afford luxurious lifestyles, including owning hotels and driving high-end vehicles like G-wagons and Rolls-Royces.

"Where is the money coming from?" Kuti asked, implying that some artists' wealth is suspicious.

However, he cited his own 20-year career, struggling to build a single house. So, he said this as evidence that the music industry doesn't generate sufficient income to support such lavish spending.

Additionally, Kuti referenced crossdresser Bobrisky's recent legal issues, noting that money laundering charges were dropped from the case.

Also, Seun Kuti urged youths to critically examine the reality of the music industry and the actions of some artists alleging they might be involved in money laundering.

"If I speak out, they'll label it jealousy," Kuti said, emphasizing that his concerns transcend personal envy.

Meanwhile, he clarified that while he doesn't condone crime, he's particularly troubled by artists potentially exploiting their own community.

"This is not about being poor or rich; it's about the game being played," Kuti concluded.

Nigerian musician Seun Kuti has come to the defense of human rights lawyer Femi Falana, dismissing allegations made against him in a leaked phone call involving crossdresser Bobrisky.

The audio, leaked by online critic Vincent Martins Otse (VeryDarkMan) with Seun Kuti's approval, claimed Falz and his father, Femi Falana, demanded N10 million from Bobrisky for a presidential pardon after his arrest.

So, Seun Kuti, who initially approved sharing the leaked call, clarified his stance on Instagram. He stated: "I know Uncle Femi very well... That part about Femi Falana is a scam."

Also, Kuti cited his personal experiences with Femi Falana, who reportedly represented him pro bono in three cases with Nigerian law enforcement.

"Uncle Femi Falana is so effing rich... If he believes someone is wrongfully convicted, he'll get them pardoned without asking for anything."

However, Seun Kuti expressed uncertainty about Falz's involvement, suggesting: "Maybe Falz fit talk to Bobrisky, take him papa dey brag... That's the only way, it doesn't reach Uncle Femi's side."

Lastly, the scandal has sparked controversy, with many questioning the authenticity of Bobrisky's claims.

Renowned Afrobeat musician Seun Kuti has entered the fray surrounding crossdresser Bobrisky's allegations against the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).

During a recent Instagram Live session, Kuti disclosed that social media activist VeryDarkMan (VDM) initially shared an audio recording with him, which implicated Bobrisky in a money laundering case. The recording allegedly revealed that the EFCC accepted a N15 million bribe to drop the charges.

In the audio, Bobrisky claimed he did not serve his jail term and mentioned rapper Falz and his father, human rights lawyer Femi Falana.

Meanwhile, Kuti stated that he encouraged VDM to expose Bobrisky and the EFCC after reviewing the evidence. The musician, who has experienced his own share of run-ins with the law, highlighted the disparity in treatment.

Also, he questioned why Bobrisky received preferential treatment. "I served my jail term, so why was Bobrisky freed?" Kuti asked.

However, Seun Kuti's involvement adds another layer to the controversy surrounding Bobrisky's allegations against the EFCC. The case has sparked widespread debate about corruption and unequal treatment within Nigeria's justice system.

Nigerian afrobeat star Seun Kuti has ignited a heated debate on social media with his recent post about women, sex and activities with men.

On his social media page, Seun Kuti challenged the notion that sex is a favor bestowed upon men by women. He emphasized that sex is a mutual act, stressing that it's not a favor unless it involves a prostitute.

In his words: "No one gives anyone sex except a prostitute. Sex is a mutual act. It's not a favor, and you didn't do anything; you just had sex - a natural act that cave women and cave men did."

Meanwhile, Seun Kuti's statement has sparked outrage among many Nigerians, who interpret his comments as dismissive of women's agency and autonomy.

Also, the musician's assertion that prostitution is "not a bad thing" has also drawn criticism. Lastly, the controversy surrounding Kuti's post shows the complex and sensitive nature of discussions around sex, consent, and gender dynamics in Nigeria.

Nigerian musician Seun Kuti has released a captivating "Making Of" video for his highly anticipated album, Heavier Yet (Lays The Crownless Head), on his YouTube channel. The video, filmed and directed by Raphaël Frydman at Question de Son studio in Paris, offers a glimpse into the creative process behind Seun's latest work.

Set to drop on October 4th via Milan independent label Record Kicks, Heavier Yet comes six years after Seun's Grammy-nominated album, Black Times. This new record marks a pivotal moment in Seun's illustrious career, showcasing his evolution as an artist and activist.

Seun Kuti sheds light on the true essence of his music, dispelling common misconceptions. "African liberation is not my father's message, but Africa's message. Over 90% of Africans live in poverty, with 65% surviving on less than $2 a day." He emphasizes the importance of unity and collective empowerment.

Heavier Yet is produced by a dream team of top-tier producers, including superstar Lenny Kravitz (executive producer) and Fela Kuti and Egypt 80's original producer Sodi Marciszewer (artistic producer). This collaborative effort showcases Seun's expansion into diverse musical influences, from funk to reggae.

Seun expresses his gratitude for working with Lenny Kravitz, describing the experience as "magical." "I learned from a master, shaping my future music." This collaboration has not only enhanced Seun's artistry but also forged a lasting impact on his career.

Heavier Yet (Lays The Crownless Head) will be available on all major streaming platforms, CD, and limited edition black and coloured vinyl. Fans can expect an album that entertains, inspires, and ignites a spirit of activism and liberation.

Seun Kuti's parting words resonate deeply: "Monkeys need trees, lions need wilder beasts, crocodiles need a laguna, sharks need water, human beings need beauty, we need it." Immerse yourself in the Making of video on Seun Kuti's YouTube channel and get ready for Heavier Yet, dropping October 4th.
