The lack of evidence from the Nigerian rapper has left his fans wondering where he got his information.

Kanye West had stated that he was the best artist on earth because the spirits of Fela, Nelson Mandela, and Tupac existed within him.

In a strongly disagreeing response, Seun said he did not think Kanye West connected with Fela's spirit.

In a recent update, Seun Kuti said Kanye West was a danger to all Africans. The saxophonist further shared a clip of Kanye telling a group of African Americans that they were not black but originated from India.

Tackling the Jesus Walks singer, he wrote:

"There is nothing worse than a smart, dumb niggga. All the rich blacks hate Africans, not just this buffoon. Just go and do and run a DNA test, and let's see how Punja you are."
