Afrobeat singer Seun Kuti has sparked renewed debate about Afrobeats, describing it as more of a ālabelā than a true music genre.
Speaking on The Beat 99.9 FM Lagos, Seun explained that the term āAfrobeatsā is used loosely as a tag for music coming out of Africa, but not as a defined sound with strict rules.
According to him, most Afrobeats artists donāt even treat it like aĀ genre. Instead, they freely experiment with different sounds, from Nigerian pop to dancehall,Ā amapianoĀ and even blues, switching styles whenever the vibe demands.
āI think Afrobeats is more of a title than a genre,āĀ Seun said.Ā āYou can see Amapiano is the new Afrobeats. Itās the new thing in Afrobeats. So, Afrobeats is just a generalisation, a title to identify something from Africa.ā
The outspoken son ofĀ Afrobeat legend,Ā Fela Kuti, added that even top names in the industry do not approach Afrobeats as a strictly defined category.
āThey could do a dancehall track today, switch to amapiano tomorrow, and then drop a Nigerian pop song. Thatās why I donāt think Afrobeats is a genre. Itās just a title,āĀ he said.
Seunās take has sparked mixed reactions online, with fans debating whether Afrobeats is indeed a genre or simply a movement representing Africaās diverse sound.
