I’m Bigger Than Fela – Wizkid

Nigerian superstar Wizkid has intensified his online feud with Seun Kuti following the Afrobeat star’s repeated criticism of Wizkid fans for comparing him to his late father, Fela Kuti

On Instagram, Wizkid directly called out Seun Kuti, writing:
“Pussy boy @bigbirdkuti
ok I big pass your papa!!
Wizkid added, “Fela fight for freedom, this fool Dey fight fc! Oloshi Omo ale! I big pass your papa, wetin you wan do? Fool at 40. @bigbirdkuti I’m Big Wiz everyday bigger than your papa!! Wetin u one do fool. Hungry bastard.”

Through these posts, Wizkid contrasted Fela’s legendary activism with what he sees as Seun’s focus on criticizing fans rather than contributing meaningfully to broader issues.

The clash began after Seun Kuti publicly condemned comparisons between Wizkid and Fela, arguing that equating a contemporary artist with the Afrobeat pioneer disrespects his father’s cultural legacy. He described such comparisons as ignorant, especially when fans use Fela’s name online.
