Veteran Nollywood actress Ireti Doyle’s ex-husband, Patrick Doyle, has come out to express his opinion on Grammy-award winning musician, Burna Boy in line with his controversial assertion that Afrobeats music lacks substance.
Taking to his official Facebook page, Patrick Doyle stated that Burna Boy has not, by himself, done anything that can be remotely identified as great looking at his achievements over the past few years.
Doyle asserted that the successes that appear to be puffing the likes of Burna Boy up, have to be properly attributed to great musicians like Fela, Sunny Ade, Majek Fasek, and others who paved the way for artists like him Burna Boy to follow suit without having to go through too much stress.
“The credit for the feats that appear to be puffing the likes of Burna Boy up have to be properly ascribed to the greats who cleared the thorny paths that have created pathways for his likes to walk through practically effortlessly” he wrote.
“Burna Boy has not by himself done anything that can be remotely described as great. He and his peers are recipients of the labours of heroes past. They need to be humble and respectful of their diligent and truly pioneering predecessors. Great artistes like SunnyAde, Fela Anikulapo, Majek Fashek , I, k. Dairo and a galaxy of others who paved the way from the 60s, to the 2000s. Greatness and great feats don’t exist in a vacuum. Let us not contribute to the creation of an arrogant and obnoxious monster” he added.
