Here’s everything you missed in entertainment yesterday and others that unravelled while you slept – and are still buzzing today.
Seun Kuti says ‘every Tom, Dick and Ashy wants to be Fela because they want to smoke weed and chase women‘
On the day (October 15) his dad, Fela Anikulapo-Kuti, was supposed to be 80, Seun wrote on Instagram, “People will never understand you without going through the education you have tried to promote. Every Tom Dick And Ashy is the new Fela just because they want to smoke igbo and chase women. How about the sacrifice? How about duty? They want to be Fela and at the same time be the darlings of all the oppressors. All these new Fela’s and those possessed by his spirit hobnobbing with white supremacists. They think you are great because rappers mention your name, they don’t know that rappers mention your name so they can feel greatness. What do they know about sacrifice? What do they know about the trauma that first-hand violence has inflicted on our family? The blind leading the blind listening to the deaf speak! Happy 80th. The struggle intensifies!!!”
