Wizkid and Fela Kuti should not be compared, and here’s why.

Fela Aníkúlápó Kuti and Wizkid existed in completely different eras, faced different challenges, and served different purposes in Nigerian music history.

Fela Kuti was not competing for popularity. He used music as resistance.
In the 1970s and 80s, Fela turned Afrobeat into a tool for political confrontation, cultural awakening, and social criticism. His impact is measured by how deeply he shaped African consciousness, challenged authority, and influenced generations of artists worldwide, not by numbers, charts, or awards.

Wizkid represents a different kind of greatness.
He emerged in a globalized music era and helped push Nigerian sound into mainstream international culture. Through global collaborations, stadium tours, and chart success, Wizkid played a major role in making Afrobeats commercially viable and globally accepted. His impact lies in reach, influence, and cultural visibility.

Fela created a movement.
Wizkid expanded an industry.

One confronted power.
The other mastered global relevance.

Asking “who is bigger” oversimplifies history.
The better question is how each artist fulfilled the demands of their time and excelled at it.

Different eras.
Different missions.
Both great.

Hunters in African societies were far more than men of the forest.

They embodied responsibility, restraint, and a deep understanding of life itself. Their way of living reflected balance strength with wisdom, courage with care, and action with purpose. Through their presence, values were preserved and quietly passed on across generations.

Swipe through to discover other important roles hunters played in shaping society.

Today, we visited this sacred site in Ouidah alongside Babalawo Popoola Ifagbenusola and Titilola Damilola. In Vodun tradition, the Royal Python isn't just an animal; it’s a symbol of the god Dan, representing fertility, prosperity, and the continuity of life.

​Unlike the myths you might hear, these pythons are revered as protectors. In fact, they are often released at night to "hunt" and return to the temple by morning!

​Did you know? The followers of the temple have specific facial markings (scarification) that represent their spiritual connection to the python.
​Tell me: Would you be brave enough to hold one, or are you watching from a distance?
