Tiwa Savage’s Ex-husband and 323 Entertainment C.E.O, Tunji Balogun also known as Teebillz,
has shade alleged ignorant music followers, unvailing that Afrobeats wouldn’t have been known if not for D’banj and Don Jazzy.
The music mogul who seems provoked by the under-gratitude sent the way of both Don Jazzy and Bangalee,
when credits are given to those behind the international fame that Afrobeat is presently enjoying.
He took to his Instagram page to make the special revelation as well as shading those who overlook the former music partners,
when given a shout-out out to active pioneers of the music genre.
He wrote;
“It’s funny how everyone is shouting AfroBeats to the world now and conversations are being held around the world without acknowledgement ……
without the KINGS @iambangalee and @donjazzy there will be no #Afrobeats blessings to you guys.
“Oliver Twist by D’banj, produced by Don Jazzy took AfroBeats to international awareness and acceptance!
As someone that has invested in the growth of Nigerian music industry… no time to go back and forth based on my last post!
The tag AfroBeats started from the UK, although i disagreed then bcos the original sound of AfroBeat is FELA.
“The world accepted Nigerian music as a new genre, AfroBeats!…..
when dem no even teach u the history of the country you are from in school how can you know about the music.”
