Seun Kuti Critiques Nigerian Artists’ Spending, Highlights Father’s Wealth
Seun Kuti, son of Afrobeat pioneer Fela Kuti, recently shared insights about his late father’s wealth and criticized contemporary Nigerian artists for their extravagant spending. In a recording, Seun recounted that his father, Fela, generously provided for everyone in the Kalakuta Republic, supporting over 500 people daily. Seun revealed that as a child, his daily pocket money exceeded his teacher’s salary.
He recalled an incident where his sister tore a N50 note, prompting teachers to ban students from bringing such large amounts to school and to limit them to N5. Despite this, Seun admitted to hiding money in his socks to disobey the rule.
Seun criticized current Nigerian singers for their frivolous spending on luxury cars and lavish lifestyles, likening their behavior to that of politicians. He also highlighted that the money he was supposed to inherit was instead used to care for the less privileged. This is not the first time Seun has called out artists; he previously criticized Diddy over his assault case with Cassie.

Ruger Reveals Why His Shows Are Booked More Than His Colleagues
Nigerian Artist, Ruger shares his thought on his fully booked shows more than that of his colleagues. He reveals that he does not just perform his songs but shows his personality to the crowd. He states that an artist can have a lot of hit songs but can still be clueless on the stage.
“Let me explain to you why I get booked so much. I don’t come on stage to sing (of which I know l’m so good at) I bring my whole fucking personality on stage it’s not a joke”.
“It’s not by having hit songs you can have a million hit songs and still be clueless on stage at a 200-capacity venue.”
This situation can also explain what Whitemoney meant when talking about Shallipopi’s success in music.
