Help us bring you and millions of others in-depth, meticulously researched news and information. I’ve been busy. You don’t see me pop up because I’m doing songs, working here, consulting, doing one or two. So it’s been all work. I have not gone home.Puffy Tee:
Some of these producers are way better than these artists. Just imagine Pheelz, who knew? Since he produced Adekunle Gold, nobody knew he had all of this, but he kept it. When it got to his time, he could do it, and he’s still doing it. He will go a long way because he is a raw talent. That guy has a lot in him, as do all of us. We have it; it’s just that the songs they write are not for artists.
After yahoozee, a lot of producers came up because it was OJB. After OJB, after me, and after ‘yahooze,’ Gongo also came out almost simultaneously as ‘Lori ile. ‘So it was my second hit, and ‘Gongo Aso’ came out. So that introduced Converse. I think Converse had something before, but it was smaller than ‘Gongo aso’, so that was his biggest hit, and he was profiting. Around that time, we had 5/6 of us, but now everybody is a producer.It’s still Afrobeats because Yahooze was a turnaround.
Now, another thing about this whole debate is whether I’m Afrobeats or not. I don’t know why; everybody suddenly says I’m not an Afrobeats musician. It’s pressure from where they are going. They did the same to Michael Jackson because he was black. He was doing well, but particular doors could not be opened because he was black. He had to go white for those doors to be opened. So, the fight has been fought to a point where a category has been created for the first time in Grammy.
Just like when you want to get new citizenship, you denounce your country and pledge your allegiance to another country, and they let you in. That’s why it’s about priorities. Places to go, what to do, you want to win a Grammy, you want to do this, you want to open this, etc. So that’s what they use to deceive all these guys.It might be because these guys help them generally. When Reggae came out, it was so strong that it burst into Reggae tunes, dances, etc. It broke into so many parts.
