Like Afrobeats, Fuji is a Nigerian music genre that has remained in vogue. Singer Ahmed Ololade, aka Asake, tapped into it in his recently released album Lungu Boy.
Amid Fuji's growth, a festival honouring the genre and the gatekeepers took place on Wednesday, August 21, at the Blue Roof Pavillion, LTV 8, Ikeja, Lagos.

Meanwhile, Legit.ng recalls reporting Osupa started a trend in the Fuji niche industry, blending the genre with South Africa's Amapiano.
On Tuesday, June 11, Osupa announced his single, 'Fuji Amapiano' aka 'Fujipiano,' which he said was a breath of fresh air and a new idea for him.
