Seun Kuti finally reacts to Burna Boy performing in his underwear

During his interview on Rubbin Minds today, Seun Kuti said Burna Boy should have known better than stripping to his underwear to perform at Felabration final at the New Afrika Shrine last month. (In case you missed it, see the photos HERE)

Is Seun trying to criticize him or what? I feel what Burna did was a sign of respect for Fela. He should be appreciated by d Kuti's family

Sorry to say dis cos av got max Fela respect bt I believe Fela did d same n worse! Seun didn't need to bcome an attention seeker mentioning Burna's dad, rili av some respect cos one doesn't av to do wif d oda! N Seun shld get tired of livin off his dad's fame, @least burna's doing his own thing!

This guy , what the hell is his point. Fela did preform in his underwear in front of cameras. It's on netflix America . Stage, camera all na the same thing.That aside , is Seun ignorant of the fact that the girls danced almost naked. Or is that alright. At least Burma boy get talent.

People with brains know that what Burna boy did was a tribute to Fela. The small minded can continue to criticize.

Didiola said...

"He should have know better" means what? Is no one allow to wear pant and perform again? Even if it was Fela's thing, so what? It just like saying anybody wearing black or white suit and a hat on stage should know better because that was MJ's thing.

If he only did it @ his home, how come you know? Does he video himself and upload it or something? I'm lost. If you've ever been to Fela's shrine, there's nothing wrong with what he's wearing.

My dear, he performed in underpants, but maybe not live. But camere na camera sha. Seun can take a chill pill.

Anonymous said...

The problem with bloggers, Linda included is that they give half gist and thus, it produces half results. I watched the interview live. Seun did not criticize Burna Boy. What I deduced is that Burna Boy didn't need that wearing of pant thing to Potray Fela. You know what they say about , it is not what you say but how you say them; he was cool and humble in saying it, from his tone, he answered Ebuka's questions as politely possible. He didn't mean to criticize.

Unknown said...

seun should go take a truck load of chill pills already.i mean he should know better than criticizing an entertainer trying to wow his fans, whats the point of bringing it up again?.. thats just some lame attempt at publicity.

Anon 8:41 p.m. Seun was an opening act for most Fela's live performances at the age of 6. Maybe, you were too young to know this or you choose to react ignorantly. And who told you Seun is seeking attention? From who if I amy ask? Seun has been touring the world with the Egypt 80 band since the transition of Abami Eda. Lastly, Fela NEVER and I say NEVER performed in his briefs. Fela only wore his briefs in the comfort of his home.

@ayokunle, please note to self, go and do your research if you like, fela only wore his underwear in his house, never on stage, never performed in his underwear on stage, its a misconception people have, so burna boy made a misrepresentation of fela by doing that.

Fela only rehearsed in his underwear and not on stage. Fela's music is deep and not about smoking weed or performing in underwear.

Hian ! Abeg what belongs to FELA should be left for fela.. How d dude go do the inner wear thing.. Absurd.. Its just like trying to copy micheal jacksons moon walk.. U one rearrange ur teeth.. He should ave stuck to what he is known for.. The shades.. Jooor oOooo !

Anonymous said...

Gone far as how? There are impersonators around.. Ppl dresses like elivis, sings his song and get paid to do it.. So what the fuck is wrong with burna boi doing this? Unless if seun feels like his father doing this was wrong and shldnt be copied.. If not, he shld park well joor

Seun u've only picked on Burna coz u've failed as a son of d legend Fela Anikulapo Kuti,his intention is absolutely conspicuous so stop blabbing @least we all remembered ur late dad immediately Burna stepped on stage that very day....hv always known u as an extremist in everyfin u do...itz wud ve bin beta if sumfin like diz came 4rm Egbon(Femi) and not u...learn 2 appreciate kind gestures @least every artist came 4 free just to pay tribute and besides Burna doesn't shy away 4rm d fact that FELA is his Idol coz he grew up in d shrine....so Y u dey fall our hand wit diz stupid comment....?

You are talking nonsense. He only wore his tade mark trousers when on stage.

this guy was only rep-ing seun's father. its not the first time he has performed on stage. he obviously was well aware of his action.... it is seuns dad who should have never done what he did.fela was the mentor, burna is the protege

Who cares

Anonymous said...

All those people saying Fela never, ever performed in his underwear please I beg you go on netflix America. There is a documentary on Fela. In it he performed or rehearsed (same thing me thinks since both involved an audience with or without cameras )in dirty brown underwear. Fela did not mind been seen in his underwear he was an eccentric exhibitionist period. So please do your research or better still understand what performance is. It can be live, or in front of cameras. If Fela did not want to be associated with his yucky underwear he would have made a deliberate attempt to cover up. Which he didn't . And now everyone can see Fela performing in his underwear on netflix .
