True

Lies from the pit of hell and also ignorance. First of all, let me educate you better, Afrobeat us different from Afrobeats. Afrobeat was coined by Fela who got the inspiration from Ghana and then he added some few things and fine tuned it,he named it afrobeat. Now go back to the 1920's till when Fela died nobody played the type of music (afrobeat) Fela did, his style was unique. But yes he got influences from Ghana, that much is true. However, what is known today as afrobeats (with an S) is a type of music in Nigeria that has nothing to do with the type of music Fela played but instead a music that evolved from Nigerians trying to sing pop music, hip-hop music and rap music by Nigerians to Nigerians. We used to consume majorly foreign music but Nigerians started giving it the local flavor by adding pidgin, Nigerian local languages and even adding elements of our indigenous music. As this became more accepted we started going to the UK with the help of promoters and some record labels like Kennis Music thereby giving it more popularity. Collaborations with snoop dog(dbanj and snoop in Mr endowed) and Kanye noticing dbanj further helped us. Afrobeats is just semantics, Nigerians knows their sounds if they hear it. Afrobeats is now widely accepted and everyone is claiming it, even Koreans are doing it. Anyways Ghana has something similar and if they want to call it afrobeats I have no problem with that. But don't get it twisted. Go to Netflix and watch the documentary on afrobeats and it's evolution.

@@olagokeabodunde3342 We all know Long Fingers and tall tales are features carried by mostly NIGERIANS. LMAO you want me to watch that DISHONEST NETFLIX documentary on AFROBEATS made by the same shady NIGERIANS who have twisted the real facts to suite their criminal agenda? I blame Ghanaian musicians for laying back and allowing these con-Nigerians into their midst to steal their genre of music, just as the modern day EGYPTIANS have claimed the identity of the real Black EGYPTIANS OF ANTIQUITY. FELA NEVER COINED THE WORD AFROBEAT, it's a fabricated lie once again, was in existence before he came to Ghana on his musical journey. When a thief is caught with stolen goods he claims his goods are different from the stolen ones. You NIGERIANS cannot do anything better without a Ghanaian influence

How did Ghana start it?

No.mind am. Ghana na HIGH LIFE, and Nigeria na AFRO BEAT dating back to the '60s by the one and only FELA RANSOM KUTI.. High Life has been dead and gone for decades even though the late Rex Lawson (Nigeria) was the one one popularised it, more than anyone else in Ghana. So, there.

Ghana started afrobeats?....Be deceiving yourself. Mad people everywhere 🙄 😒

@@idrisahmadu5699 😂 wow some Nigerians are amazing oo can tell you fake history and pass it on like they know what they are talking about, Nigerians keep talking about AfrobeatS is a Nigerian invention ( not Afrobeat even tho Afrobeat is not yours either ) but today’s AfrobeatS if it’s true that Nigeria invented it answer one simple question what does AfrobeatS consist of?

@@NnamdiAnekwe thieves you guys have piggybacked off Ghanaians and instead just saying we got this sound from Ghana your pride won’t let you do it talking about fela 😂 , the family themselves has already said today’s AfrobeatS has nothing to with what fela was playing back then even that sound that fela played he got Ghana as well but again to much pride to admit it.

And some African countries are hating while some are liking it

But still little water and electricity

​@@georgeilawagbon9255no ones hating but some are laughing

Kenny's music and the diaspora in London made Afrobeats

You cannot single out a tribe in the success of afrobeats pls, don't be parochial. The alaba guys did it as a business because it was profitable but what about the content creators and those who took the music to the UK and US giving it much publicity. Let's give it to Kennis Music and Mohits records.

You be mumu oh, you nor no,

Common, common, receive sense. Must you bring tribe to everything

Oya make we rest na

Yeah...just stay with ur Ghana ....and as we are staying our Nigeria pls don't come and spew your jealousy and bile here

​@@GagzicoolYou don't have to say this.

@@rotimikayode1072I used to love Ghana but recently I read their comments and I’m appalled and realize Nigeria has many African enemies because God is favoring us always.

@@Royalbloodline1990why won’t you have enemies when you take a sound that is not yours, benefit from it and not give credit to those you got It from and to add insult to injury you try to erase that very country from it by saying AfrobeatS came from Nigeria. No Ghanaian is hating or jealous of Nigeria artists success in AfrobeatS but give credit when credit is due. If I’m wrong then tell me what AfrobeatS consist of?

Bobby cool

Not if endemic corruption, lack of adequate infrastructure, and increasingly difficult ability to feed a continent with a booming population isn't rectified.

One of Nigerian musics

And Nigeria is in china right?

@@Jabou1 american music. Do you call it american continent music

@@ochiegodfrey6428 lol there are a bunch of different types of Afrobeat in Africa, do your research about afrobeat in Africa in general. And yes, I know that Nigeria and Ghana are more popular in the afrobeat genre, but there’re a lots of version of afrobeat music!!

It started in Ghana, don't be ungrateful
