“Wizkid Is Better Than Fela” – Man Writes On Twitter

A man who thinks Wizkid is better than Fela, has voiced out his opinion on the popular social media website, Twitter.

According
to @mazedamouth he would prefer to listen to the contemporary tune of
Wizkid’s songs than Fela’s whom he believed wasn’t good enough and
simply over hyped in his time.

And he also wrote that most modern
music fans that revere Fela are only riding on the nostalgia his songs
created while they were growing up listening to the songs.

He wrote:

I’d
rather listen to Wizkid than Fela. Maybe I’m an unsophisticated brute,
but at least I’m not going to be driven to near-suicide by the grating,
tone deaf singing of a fake deep hack who coasts on the power of the
background instrumentals.

What has Fela done that matches Wizkid’s tun tun tun tun in Fever?

Many
of you who extol Fela’s prowess are manipulated by the unseen yet
strong strings of nostalgia. Your father probably played Fela’s music on
a lazy Saturday and listening to him now reminds you of idyllic times
when life was simple. I get it.

Some are enraptured by the man’s
charm & charisma. His fierce and unyielding resistance to power. But
this is no substitute for talent. We are very prone to confusing
history with excellence. The past with greatness. But we must wake from
this lulled deceitful existence.
