Seun Kuti: Afrobeats Is Not a Genre, Embrace Musical Diversity

Seun Kuti, a prominent singer, challenges the classification of Afrobeats as a genre, stating it is not a genre but a broader term for African music. Kuti argues that Afrobeats should not be limited to a specific style, as it encompasses various musical influences and expressions.

He emphasizes that Afrobeats artists should not be confined to a single genre but should have the freedom to explore different sounds and styles. Kuti advocates for a more inclusive and diverse approach to defining African music, rejecting the idea of categorizing it under a single label.
