I DON’T CARE ABOUT BEING LIKED! Seun Kuti says he has never gotten massive support from family and friends
Seun Kuti, the youngest son of legendary Afrobeat pioneer, Fela Kuti, has revealed that he never received massive support from his family, friends and the media since he started his career 20 years ago.
Kuti who leads his father’s former band, Egypt 80, said he is a man that is propelled by conviction and responsibility hence he doesn’t care about being liked and having supporters club.
Seun Kuti, however, stressed that he is proud of that the dominant gene in his parents’ union is that of his father saying “I am my father’s son.”
Ranting on his Instagram page, the youngest Kuti wrote,
“Let me tell you guys how I started. From the day my father died, only a handful of people ever believed in me. In fact family friends and press used to give my career a time span, first it was 2 then it was 5 then it was 7 but it’s been 20 years now.
“So I have never been one who moved forward with massive support. Not from the public nor in private. I am a man that is propelled by conviction and responsibility.
“I don’t care about being liked and I surely don’t care about supporters club! I am proud of my DNA. I am proud that the dominant gene in my parents’ union is that of my father.
“I am proud of his sacrifice and that of those before him. I am proud of all his characteristics and understand all his decisions. I AM MY FATHER’S son.
“Ps: guns tend to jam when u wanna use it if it ain’t cleaned so before u eat it, clean it Aii.”
