Fela Kuti's Son Checks Kanye West For Mentioning Father's Spirit
By Kyle Eustice • October 21, 2018
Fela Kuti’s family isn’t playing when it comes to Kanye West. After Fela’ son Seun Kuti caught wind of the comments ‘Ye made about his late father earlier this month, he issued a statement on Instagram assuring people Fela’s spirit has nothing to do with the G.O.O.D. Music boss.
In the caption, Seun calls on Ziggy Marley and Ebro Darden to check ‘Ye. Kanye also name-dropped reggae legend Bob Marley during his Twitter rant.
“Erm erm on behalf of the Kuti family, I want to state that the spirit of Olufela Anikulapo Kuti isn’t anywhere near Kanye West,” he wrote. “@ziggymarley over to you. @oldmanebro come get ur boi before I #getthesax.”
