Sharing his thoughts on the ongoing feud between Seun and Wizkid, he insisted that the former provoked the backlash.
Popular Nigerian actor and socialite, Yhemolee has accused Seun Kuti of bringing embarrassment to the Kuti family.
Sharing his thoughts on the ongoing feud between Seun and Wizkid, he insisted that the former provoked the backlash.
Speaking via a Snapchat post, Yhemolee opined that most young people know little to nothing about Fela and were reacting to comparisons made by Seun himself.
Yhemolee pointed out that Wizkid is a generational icon, with fans who grew up listening to his music, and that many Nigerians only know Fela through history lessons or limited exposure.
He wrote: “Na seun kuti I blame!! This fraction of FC you are cursing out don’t even know Fela! They have no single memory of him. Wiz is their GOAT! They can go memory lane with him from Holla at your boy till date!!
“Even some of us na fela shrine make us. Even know some things about fela except you study history. No be say we sabi anything when e Dey!!
“Some people no know pass 1 fela song! Water no get enemy same people can sing 200 of wizkid’s song start to finish.
“This current internet warriors no get single respect for anybody papa. Na you cause this embarrassment for the Kuti family. What are you putting on ring light for 5 days in a row addressing people you don’t even know.
“Innocent wife self collect inside, Nigerians know Fela shouldn’t be disrespected as a matter of fact this is the first time I’m ever seeing anything disrespectful about Fela courtesy you!!! Go carry sax Egbon leave FC”.
Yhemolee also highlighted the age gap, noting that Fela died 29 years ago, and the teenagers and Gen Z involved in the feud wouldn’t know much about him.
He concluded that Seun’s actions have led to Fela’s name being disrespected online.
“No be only you be Fela piken!! Only you won face FC? How? Wetin you chop?? Rage baited wiz till e burst out!! And everybody know sey the man mouth worst! I didn’t think a day would come I will read very silly and embarrassing stuff about FELA.
"Fela died 29yrs ago!! Who dem born that same year self would be 30yrs next year. But you are fighting teenagers and Gen Z’s that know absolutely nothing about him.. Make it make sense.”
