Maverick singer Seun Kuti has denied using Grammy-winning singer Wizkid’s name for clout to “revive” his career.

Kuti has been accused of chasing clout with Wizkid’s name after he repeatedly criticised the Starboy boss and his fans during recent livestreams.

Reacting to the allegations on one of his livestreams, the Afrobeat musician argued that his career was has never been stunted and he has no reason to chase clout with Wizkid’s name to revive it.

He said, “Some people are saying I am trying to use Wizkid to revive my career. When did my career die for me to be trying to revive it? Last year alone, I did 82 shows globally.

“I sold out shows in Australia, Europe, America, and Brazil. I have people who are fans of my music worldwide. I call myself Big Bird because the sky is big for everybody. Because no matter how big you are, you can’t occupy the whole sky.

“People whose careers need revival know themselves. It is not me.”
