Nigerian musician Ckay confidently claimed that he was the pioneer of many of the sounds currently trending in Afrobeat.

He made this statement in a recent post on his X page, reflecting on how he was once ridiculed for his unique “emo afrobeat” style, which has now gained significant popularity, particularly on TikTok.

Ckay pointed out that many artists in the Afrobeat scene have since adopted his approach, leading to widespread success and financial gains for them. His remarks have sparked conversations about his influence and the evolution of Afrobeat.
