Brymo said, “I saw a video where he (Burna Boy) was saying that he was the Jesus of afrobeats. And he put Davido and Wizkid on some other mountains like that.

“I think he (Burna Boy) is sleazy, he is cheap, he is a thief. Very unoriginal. Very fake. Every of his song is a sample or a stolen slogan. Who does that? And who awards you Grammy for that?

“Afrobeats is a music style. It’s not a genre. Fela’s afrobeat is a genre. And it’s disrespectful that a new generation of musicians came and just added ‘s’. And tried to create another sets of numbers ones: ‘Wizkid is the first. Davido Burna Boy…’ No, no, no. They all are thieves.

“Do you know how much struggles Baba (Fela) went through to create afrobeat? Anyways, I think it’s a whole big problem that we have.”
