Nigerian Singer Femi Kuti reveals how his father, Fela Kuti, once described his song as rubbish. Femi shared his experiences at the early stage of his musical career and revealed the reaction from fans and his father during that time.

But it wasn’t a fight. I was lost. I had no formal education, how was I going to become a great musician? I was lost. I was crying inside me. But people didn’t understand, they thought I was doing what I was doing because I was protesting.

I just focused and said, I can’t turn back right now. I would rather die trying. So, I just continued and I have never stopped since then.

The first time my father heard my first album at the launching in 1989, he said it was rubbish. He went on stage and said it to the press. I was so upset. He was the last person I expected such a harsh review from.”
