“Seun provoked him?” – Video of Femi Kuti talking about Wizkid goes viral amid brother feud

A video of Fela Anikulapo-Kuti’s first son, Femi Kuti, speaking about Grammy-winning singer Wizkid amid ongoing criticism on social media has gone viral.

The clip resurfaced amid the ongoing feud between Wizkid and Femi’s younger brother, Seun Kuti, over alleged comparisons to their late father.

The exchange has divided fans online, sparking debates and widespread reactions on social media.

“Wizkid Is Like Family to Me”

Speaking in the video, Femi described Wizkid as someone very close to his family and far different from how he is often portrayed online.

“Felabration and Wizkid’s Respect for It”

Femi highlighted Wizkid’s consistent support for Felabration, the annual music festival held in honour of Fela Kuti.

According to Femi, Wizkid has always shown respect for Fela’s legacy and remains committed to honouring it.

Addressing Social Media Judgments

Femi also addressed the backlash and criticism Wizkid often faces on social media.

He suggested that many critics judge the singer without truly knowing him, noting that the public perception of Wizkid differs from the private individual he knows personally.

Countering claims that Wizkid is arrogant or disrespectful, Femi stressed that character should not be judged solely by online reactions or controversial headlines.

In his words: “Wizkid is like family to me. I mean, except when he’s not in the country. I’ll honour Felabration—he always shows up. When I see people commenting about him on Twitter, they don’t really know Wizkid. The Wizkid I know is very nice and humble. People don’t just understand what it means to have so many people shouting your name and expecting so much from you. The pressure on someone who has been at the top for so long is a lot, and I think he’s handling it very well.”
