So much love for Eedris. From grass to grace. Shutout to the legendary Eedris, shout out to Burma Boy, R.I.P. Baba Fela. God bless Naija music. God bless Nigeria.
If you didn't watch the interview in its entirety, please refrain from making uneducated comments. Eedris was very thoughtful in answering the questions and he didn't insult Burma Boy.
u are so humble edris and nice person u are. all u have said in this interview is true i love man. may GOD continue to protect u all the days of your life.
Hello Eedris, you have an hidden talent. If you can think of what you are very good at, you will definitely be richer than the people who have written you off.
Yee e ! Dis man is second Fela o o o ! Na Fela dey talk fact in his music & his interviews during his life time like this o . May papa Fela soul rest in perfect peace. Honestly,dis is another living legend. You must live, we need more of you ! U are too frank,too straight forward,too original. Aiye Kooto o ! Abajo ! You are for a good purpose in dis life. Fearless Lion, l can see dat you are not fighting for yourself nor for your family,but l can see dat you are only Fighting for humanity like papa Fela. I wish you a very speedy recovery. Insha Allahu & lJCMN. AAAmen. Lov from my family and l .
Dont be defensive because you like his music and you like him as a person. Facts are facts, the guy is talented but you can't be the new Fela when you are singing about drugs, women and money. Not all his songs are like that but most songs that made us love him don't have nothing to do with politics.
@@grandmaswisdom1583 In common sense we call 'sampling' more than 10 songs from ONE artists COPYING. Imagine a new singer with like 10+ songs and ALL of them are just beyonce songs. That's weird as fuck
@@Bayo106 we see things different in Black America; You have to pay big time money for sampling; we see it as a compliment especially when it’s done by an talented artist, But yes, if it’s done by an talentless artist it’s an insult.
Love you Eedris you always speak it out the way it is you speak out our mind all the time you re a true legend baba 🤜 keep it on dont let the fire die until we get it right in Nigeria
You all don’t know what sampling is. It’s very common practice and it’s done by all big artists at some point. I’d rather our Nigerian artists try to copy Fela than follow foreign trends. At least the sound is authentic.
Eseoghene Ojoma I know what sampling is ,which is fine and has been happening since long ago.....for burna boy it’s simply copy pasting.i don’t know any other way of explaining to you.go to you tube type “burna boy samples Fela”you will get all I am talking about.
He always saying it how his story started not adding to it or sugarcoating or exaggerating the matter perhaps he was a big boy already but to let people know that he's being from the trash and tick ghetto......thanks so much Baba Edris I love you so much
Kudos to the voice of the voiceless in our country nigeria..am your biggest fans from Germany..but i want to drop a little advice..don't allow those interviewers to make you say something about your fellow artist..you can say what ever you want about the situation of Nigeria in your music that is perfect please..remember we are fake people in our country..respect large and much love👍👍👍
And do what! He is keeping Abami Eda's memory" alive. The Kuti's family are not complaining so what's ur own. He might even be Abami's son for all we know. If he is copying his "father's" music na whose business bi dat? And if, he not Fela's son so what! Carry on jare Burma!
My man idris abukarim one love brother, one thing I respect about this guy is his true stands on saying the truth without looking at anybody face, I love your spirit, you are a strong man
@@chrisoghenetegamaloney5799 they initially (that Wizkid fan girl) didn't mention Burna stating that "no one except Fela" so that Eedris will blurt out the content they need to cause controversy but later on added that and then captioned it with the half truth answered question of the first part. They are trying to build bad blood between Burna and industry old heads. I only pray that Burnas team is up and doing cos this character assassination is becoming ridiculous by the day.
Yes, Burna copied Fela and so what.....? Everyone knows he copied Fela and he does it soo perfectly well. We the entire continent of Africa support Bura boy.
It seem you didn't watch the video , before you made your comment , no one said is not good for him copied , he said no one paved way for him . then bro idris said he was wrong for saying that . cause every musician who started before him has paved way for him one way or the other . So watch video before comment. You are the type of people that don't hearing any pettitiom in the court of law before you give judgement.
@@sstephenafolabi8975 You are right.I wasn't happy when his mom made a speech telling the audience that they have finally gotten to know who is the best in the music industry at soundcity award picking the plaque on behalf of his son as if nigerians made a mistake of not making him famous and successful long time ago, after all where was burna boy when artists like davido, wizkid and others where making waves in their prime in Nigeria and abroad?This is while Eedris is letting us know that other musicians have already paved the way before him.
Please watch from 12:09 before leaving a comment. Most of the comments attacking Eedris are from people that just read the headlines and did not listen properly.
Now that he's successful they say he stole. He's style of music has been the same and nobody ever complained until now. Who started singing in pegion before the rest stole his style?
Even Burna acknowledge Fela as his mentor perhaps you don't even know that his grandfather was Fela's manager. Again if you have been following him you will know he change his style from when he started and completely adopt the Fela's style
@@barnabasusman8121 which baba. The only baba I know burnaboy tapped his anointing is baba fela. Any other baba is a counterfeit plus I've been listening to burnaboy songs since day one I repeat, day one
Even Fela had a mentor and who he copied from. Burnaboy borrowed from Fela’s songs and improved on it. This guy just doesn’t know how to use words because “stole” shouldn’t come up in this discourse. Eedris should take a chillpill and stop trying to score some cheap shots.
Idris , several occasions I'd like your flow kicks ,,,they will never be steady light in Nigeria as long as Nigeria remains one because some people don't want it happen
This man maybe an influencer to Naija hip pop progression but at the same time pure Burna boy haters. You will understand wat I am saying if you are following him till this day
There is always somebody hating 😂😂😂... Why does Eedris always feel like dropping a Diss at any artist who is top dog of the day. Why even mention Burna in this manner at this sit ?
I enjoyed his song way back, but I don't understand why he's going about causing strife up and down. Everyone is the hero of their own stories hence he will not admit he did anything that will rub others the wrong way. Social media craves for controversy and will abandon him after his one minute of fame. If he wants to be consistently in the limelight, he needs to find his way back to the studio and sing or do something worthwhile. Pushing controversies up and down won't last long.
So much love for Eedris. From grass to grace. Shutout to the legendary Eedris, shout out to Burma Boy, R.I.P. Baba Fela. God bless Naija music. God bless Nigeria.
Edris is a good story teller. He got every body engaged and kept their attention
Eedris Abdukareen you yourself has also don so much in the music industry, may God bless you and your family, i ❤💙💛💜🧡💚 you bro
Besides his comment on Burna I enjoyed this interview. Eedris is passionate about naija and being fair in general and I love that!
I don’t care about what some ppl are saying about this guy, I like him and I’ll always do, he’s Eedris, more strength to life bro🙏🏽🙏🏽
Have not seen any artist as eloquent as he is. He just need to discover himself
This interveiw brought tears to my eyes...
Respect Idris...
BURNA himself just said that FELA is the influence behind his success,
Enjoying idris Abdul.. for the first time. More matured now and very natural! Well done big bros!
Burna boy didn’t steal fela style he kept it going which is what makes the most sense since fela was the main source of Afrobeat
Cryptic vex that nigga copy Fela songs admit it fool

Can Eedris Abdulkareem make this story into a movie?... It's very fascinating and inspiring!!!
I love Idris abdulkareem
u are so humble edris and nice person u are. all u have said in this interview is true i love man. may GOD continue to protect u all the days of your life.
What is humble about a guy claiming he has house's?
Typical Nigerian way of thinking is very disgraceful
Wetin him humbleness don get am. Please make them free Burna boy. When he was roughing it out did any of these ones support him.
Idris ur types are the true hero
I like this guy he dey talk him mind and always de talk the truth
Hello Eedris, you have an hidden talent. If you can think of what you are very good at, you will definitely be richer than the people who have written you off.
Respect idris. E was one time king of the game.
Destiny Ugo stories that touch, who asked edrid question abi did they tell him not to steal song to blow ni?
He's still the king
Something or someone must have inspired Fela as well .
You can always count on Eedris to speak the truth as he sees it. I respect him for his originality, ruggedness and fearlessness.
Say what u want, this guy is a legend.

Eedris himself! I just like him. He tells the truth
I just liked this bros. He say things as it is.
only thing Burna boy stole is weed. Leave my Burna alone, he minds his own business. he's a great artist and performer.
is the weed and nude women being potrayed ok? if they can just sng without all those

Wow! I love this guy, straight from the heart talk.
Love you Eedris you always speak it out the way it is you speak out our mind all the time you re a true legend baba 🤜 keep it on dont let the fire die until we get it right in Nigeria
But Burna Boy has already acknowledged that Fela has influenced not just his own music but all Afrobeats.
Eseoghene Ojoma burna boy is a copy paste artist hiding under the “he influenced me”bullshit
Just search online for the comparison. It is a pure copy paste. All the hits are stolen bro.

Isn't that called a remix ? 🤷🏾♀️
Respect General
That's OK a lot of ppl stole my stuff but it ended up working out in my favor.
Burna’s grand Pa managed Fela , Burna’s mum and manager was around Fela’s band . I guess this kinda explain the connection.
@ Eedris still be careful with ur Landlord, don’t drink 🍷 with him
This man maybe an influencer to Naija hip pop progression but at the same time pure Burna boy haters. You will understand wat I am saying if you are following him till this day
the media will always find a way to make matters worst. E A actually made a valid point there, he meant burna boy literally said burna stole from fela
I hope the amotekun that Mr.Abdulkareem speaks of will be used correctly and not misused.
Everyday the rose King de paara...
Bad belle dey worry Edris.. na soso complain and criticism...flow with the trend and stop bringing out problems...You are too prideful!
