Son of late Afrobeat legend Fela Kuti, Seun Kuti, says a lot of artistes who claimed getting inspiration from his father only use him as excuse to smoke and chase girls.
In Instagram live chat with Ubi Franklin, a media personality, Seun said such artistes often hide under the notion of being inspired by the late singer to pursue their own interests.
The 37-year-old Afrobeat singer also added that majority of those who make such claims are from religious homes but they use his father as a form of “escapism”.
“I think a lot of them grow up in Christian and Muslim homes but use Fela as an excuse to smoke and chase girls and also using Fela as a reason to be reckless and rude to elders.
They are not really rude to the authorities”.
