I dont agree with him...Afrobeats is truly uplifting..i listened to it a lot during lockdowns..especially Burna album 'African Giant"..it is a different Genre from Reggae..and honestly the Bashment lyrics are vile mainly..not to be played around children...Afrobeats is mainly not explicit and hope it stays that way.

🥺

Yeah yeah yeah burna boy lol

Buju is hypocritical dancehall glorifies murder and degrade women i love dancehall but what the fuck are we saying that is better thsn these aftican artist. Dancehall stop talk woman ah bare chopping line guzu and gun. Afrobeat still talk bout loving woman and taking care of woman and showing the world thst africa is not jus a jungle with poor ppl that need a hand out. I swear the world start back to dance again

Talking Jamaicans is the Ruth how is Jamaican is the Ruth to Africa!!!?

Most Of Them Don't Have Any Talent, Just A Nursery Rhime To Fast Pacing Music

Afrobeats has no substance because nobody gives a damn about what's happening in Africa.

I agree with buju

Why do black people always think only one can be on top? We don't have to fight against each other, the landscape is big enough for Reggae and Afrobeat to be on top. Lets support each other's music ❤

Buju, it's time to keep quiet; how many genres are necessary to convey the same message? Afrobeat has been embraced by nearly every African nation as a unifying step, allowing them to appreciate their own culture beyond colonial limits. The genre has played a role in curbing female abuse, which is prevalent in places like South Africa and Kenya. It enables men to subconsciously express romance in ways they never have before, due to its soothing and captivating lyrical appeal. In some African cultures, male affection has been stifled, but in areas where it is lacking, new emotions are being embraced, especially by the younger generation who reject old customs. This genre is favored over the degrading Dancehall songs associated with you Buju, which young Africans are rejecting. Some artists who have succeeded in a particular genre feel they must become the spokesperson for all genres. Buju, hush with your entitled rhetoric. Why haven't you shared similar thoughts on Jazz or Hip-hop? Do not police Afrobeat; it is a form of spiritual liberation for a people who have endured much, and it is welcomed.

I hear that substance would up the level to a different mountain

Dancehall did this to themselves. they can fix it if they collaborate like they used to instead of having personal problems and beefs with everyone

Buju is just monolithic in his thinking and genuinely upsets because afrobeats is eating into his market Afrobeats is mostly play in west Africa specifically Nigeria and Ghana and these countries literally don’t have liberating they’re independent countries looking for love peace and stability in their countries

Alot of African get up in dem feelings because of what buju said....what buju saying is African need fe sing songs to uplift the youth dem fe stay positive...instead of being in the fast lane open the youth dem eyes about the struggle..mek dem stay positive for the future..a just suh it guh 💯Africa all day every day 💯African don't get mad for the truth..one love family's

In afrobeat we don't care about lyrics, it's a vibes, great beat, sweet melody....if you need sound with real lyrics go listen to KAO DENERO FROM SIERRA LEONE, LYRICAL JOE FROM GHANA, M.I ABAGA FROM NIGERIA, NASTY C FROM SOUTH AFRICA, KHALIGRAPH JONE FROM KENYA......afrobeat genre is to kill our stress and enjoy great moment ...noted that.

I find Burna Boy's Music to be very good, especially songs like 'The Monsters They made'. I personally feel like every genre doesn't have to be about struggle and hardship. I feel like we as black people have enough reminders of 'reality' and that other genres like Reggae already have that job. I feel one of the biggest tricks played on us as blacks is thinking that our message must always reflect our struggles. This keeps us in low vibration, in our trauma and quite frankly hopeless and depressed. Our major issue as a race is that of wealth building but no one wants to talk about that part. We usually show up to the table with the least amount of money and have the least amount of financial knowledge and thus the least amount of power. This idea that somehow talking about our issues without actually acting to fix them, will somehow help us does little to change our position. I am aware of all the inequalities and all the history, I know this stuff and i feel this stuff but I am also beginning to see how it can become a weapon we use against ourselves. Everyone has their role, some people sing about the inequalities and some people will make mad money and so they can afford to help remove the financial barriers that fuel these inequalities.

Good video. Those 3 artise are correct about what they say

Afrobeats is pure pop nonsense, reggaeton is foolishness stolen beats too…. Roots Rock Reggae is liberation music

Wake up youth we should love this brother for putting a mirror in our faces....the fuckery of the music industry is affecting the pockets of the artist and the minds of youth struggling who need inspiration from no more gangster b.s..r trap

Listen Mr Buju BINTON , it's time you retire, GO face or take care of your grand kids right ?. Leave young black boys and girls to sing, celebrate , enjoy AFROBEATS. IT'S NOT ALL THE CENTURIES WE SHOULD BE MOANING, LAMENTING, SINGING SAD SONGS etc

The level of ignorance on Afrobeats is pathetic. Afrobeats have lyrics guys. It has categories Afropop Afrofuision, Highlife, Lagbahda, Fuji etc.Makoussa, Decadle etc. The songs that go viral are Afropop and Amapiano records. Bro, you sound ignorant saying that a whole genre doesn't have conscious records. Have you sat to think that most of the songs are done in different languages. Burna Boy doesn't understand all the languages spoken in Nigerian music alone, how much more the continent .Burna is the same individual to hop on any viral Afropop and Amapiano record. Calling someone's music fuckery. People already speak about issues. Fuck Buju Banton. All the top afrobeat artist have conscious records from Burna Boy to Wizkid. Wizkid biggest song in Africa called Ojuelegba is a song that addresses the struggle. Burna has Ye, Another. Story, Collateral damage etc. The songs have a good vibe so you ignorant folks think it's all about a good time. Wake up and stop looking down on other genres. When y'all was popping, no African told you the type of music you should make. Why do you have the audacity to tell a genre and people what songs they should make. Fuck outta here.

It is bothering me to for years, there is only one image of a successful African guy in Music. It all this empty headed players. There are No other options! Its 1 sausages no originality. And young boys and girls think thats it.

Buju talking truth and some people talking shit about him

The audacity of cocaine dealer 😂😂😂

😂😂it's nonsense 😂😂😂

You need to be diverse and strike a balance when making an analysis. Samething goes to most dancehall vibes. Afrobeats and dancehall are much more similar. But I didn't hear Buju making emphasis on dancehall vibes. Which mostly promotes violence etc. Afrobeat and reggae are much more alike. Conscious vibes and elevation. There's a different between Afrobeats and Afrobeat.

What Is the Difference Between Afrobeat And Afrobeats? Afrobeat (without s) and Afrobeats (with s) are musical genres with roots in West Africa. They share other similarities but should not be confused. Here’s how you can tell the difference between Afrobeat and Afrobeats. What is Afrobeat? Afrobeat is a musical genre that was created by Nigerian musician Fela Kuti. While he was studying music in England, Fela Kuti started a band called Koola Lobitos. The band played a blend of Ghanaian highlife and jazz. In the early 1960s, Fela Kuti returned to Nigeria and reformed the Koola Lobitos. What does Afrobeat sound like? Afrobeat brings together funk, jazz,high life, and traditional African music. The songs are long and can be recognized by their complex instrumentation. Afrobeat bands are often composed of several musicians playing several instruments. Electric piano, guitars, horns, percussions, and vocals all contribute to the rhythm of the songs. Afrobeat is a socially conscious music. In their lyrics, the artists address the political, social, and economic issues of their time. What is Afrobeats? Afrobeats is a term that groups several African pop music genres. These music styles initially developed in Nigeria and Ghana in the late 90s to mid-2000s. What do Afrobeats sound like? Afrobeats is a mix of West African pop music with hip hop, dancehall, R&B, and EDM. The rhythm of the songs is catchy and upbeat. Most Afrobeats songs are not politically engaged. The lyrics are often about love, relationships, personal success, partying, and other light topics. Take note and kindly share; Afrobeat is similar to conscious reggae vibes. Likewise, Afrobeats is similar to a party like dancehall music. In most cases, you can still come across conscious Afrobeats and dancehall songs. Vice-versa.

Jealous and on crack 😂😂😂😂

Before reggae roots there was calypso and other music in which the contain was only to dance and free your soul In USA also the same thing was going on with pop music Even in hip hop there was no education lyrics at the beginning only boasting and showing their material thing or bragging Same with the African successful artist except fêla Kuti . Not to the war against reggae that was and still is I am a reggae artist for 40 years and I live in Philadelphia as a young man since 1978 that I was a reggaeman who also experimented rock blues soul hip hop

Wouldn't go back to the old days of cds because l hated it when the cd scratched and Wouldn't play These days with spotify l have a lot of music in my pocket

Bitter truth

Listen to M. JOSH

If you don't understand the language you wouldn't know they are singing about uplifting.

I still have a lot off cds that I bought and I'm not throwing them away

Why didn't he criticize American rap artists? All the years in prison, he couldn't write any songs?

This guy went from hero to zero. How could you sing all those conscious music and sell coke?

Can’t stop reggae music

Seun Kuti (Fela's son) writes and records political music but for some reason he is not as popular as the likes of Burna Boy, Whizkidd etc I can only think that its because the western record companies do not want politicised music making it through to the mainstream, I mean Bob Marley ended up getting assassinated by the powers that be because his music conveyed very powerful political messages.

When people learn to take criticism then they will overstand what buju Banton is saying, has nothing to do with hate or being left behind truth does hurt some people nerves and truth is before everything.

The gatekeepers are not letting those real Rasta acts come through. I Wayne , Warrior King , Lutan Fayah come through who have stayed in their lane and have delivered yet not getting the props . Music is a business and often times lyrics are tools. Buju .. you are not the biggest thing out of Jamaica and you did a song Destiny and you ended up in prison through vanity …Stay in your lane and let this youths rise . There are loads of uplifting songs from Burnaboy but not big so that’s music for you ..

Every time I listen to this I get the creeps . Buju is hating more than the truth. He’s upset because the music business have left him behind and even lucky to be let out off Jamaica back to the US . When Buju starts doing Boom bye bye again , may be I will then take him with a pinch of salt . This is double standards to me . Then he says his from the Ibo tribe of Nigeria… the man look high on coke not that weed he’s brandishing

Facts speaking truth

Most of Dancehall vybz is all about Killing and did dancehall fill up this venues Afro beat is filling up now people are going for what makes them feel joy and happy and there some songs in Afro beat that tuch heart of people soo emotional you don’t listing to Afro beat that’s the problem 😅

Jamaica isn’t free either

Bro, the idea that Afrobeats doesn't need lyrics is crap. Afrobeats has been cheapened by people who put quick money first rather than quality music and in the log run, Africa will lose if we don't get our act right. Why is it that when it comes to Africans we re comfortable with being associated with mediocrity? Afropop could have a future if we do it riht, but if we continue this way, its only a matter of time before K-Pop takes over, and bro, K-Pop is already asserting itself very well in the biggest music markets in the world, like the US, the UK and Japan

lyrics or no lyrics it's here to stay we listen to it tor the vibes (freeing our souls and relaxing)so stop the hate🇬🇭♥️

Lyrics or no lyrics let people choose what they want to hear😅

boss i am a Nigeria tell all the Jamaican musicians to stop smoking weed. Only Burna will feed Bounty Killer for a year. When it comes to population Jamiaca's population is not up to a state in Nigeria

Truth Spoken, it's like Marvin Gaye, James Brown, etc... during the Civil Rights movement

Who cares! If there's lyrics or not this so called Jamaicans! Are just jealous! Do your thing let's do ours Nigerians got no time for competition we are just here to make money take care of our family and most of all be happy!! None of Jamaicans musicians are doing better than Nigeria musicians yes I said because the real musical legend in Jamaica I mean people like Father Bob family ain't running around running their mouth anyhow talking loud this damn carial dead Musicians who couldn't do anything with time are the ones who keep running drugs mouth!!!
