Late legendary Afrobeat musician, Fela Anikulapo Kuti’s son, Femi Kuti has dropped a bombshell.

Femi through his Twitter handle disclosed that he did inherit Afrobeat music from his late father but grew up with it…

“It’s the style of music I grew up with and I love to play. It’s not my fault I’m Fela’s child. Maybe he should never have slept with my mother and I probably would be with our Lord God relaxing. And sir, after 10 albums, I don’t need to prove anything to you.”

“Pity for you. I’ve said it several times, I probably will have to repeat it till I die — I don’t want to be my father. I love him, I honour him, I respect him. But I want to be me. I love being me, Femi Anikulapo-Kuti. And I totally appreciate myself and my being.”

“How can you say the name Anikulapo wouldn’t mean anything? What about musicians that aren’t political and have a name? What about people that have built names without their parents? Lastly, how many of my tracks do you know? I have composed over 120 songs.”

Those were his assertions when some Twitter users and late Fela’s fans threw jibes at him on Twitter. See tweets below;
