The Only Musical  Legend Greater Than Me Is Fela-Burna Boy 

Seun EMMANUEL Famous Afrobeat star, Burna Boy, has stated that the late Afrobeat founder, Fela Anikulapo Kuti, is the only singer greater than him. This came amid the ongoing fight between Wizkid and Fela’s lastborn, Seun Kuti. Urban Express News reports that the duo engaged in a heated exchange on Tuesday after Wizkid’s fans compared him to the late Fela. Reacting to the development, Seun Kuti, who seems not to be comfortable with Wizkid’s comparison to his father, attacked Wizkid. Following the escalation, debate about Fela’s legacy and influence divided Nigerians on social media, including celebrities, with some condemning Wizkid for allegedly disrespecting the late Afrobeat legend, while many blamed Seun for Wizkid’s reactions. However, speaking in a video shared on Instagram by Tunde Ednut on Saturday evening, Burna Boy said, “Fela is the king. He is the only one greater than me.”
