RK1 De Superstar sets to re-brand Fuji

Fuji act, Alhaji Rahumon Akanni, popularly known as RK1 De Superstar, has expressed his determination to rebrand his genre of music with the introduction of sophisticated musical instruments.

This was just as he described Fuji icon, Wasiu Ayinde, as a genuine leader, who has contributed immensly to the growth of  Fuji music.

Speaking on what prompted his drive to elevate Fuji music, RK1 noted that it was time Fuji music, among other genres of music, realised its potentials and also improve on its qualities.

He condemned the way some Fuji acts are handling fuji, saying “It is uncalled for and unprofessional to engage in a collaboration with other genres, especially the Hip Hops acts whose works do not last more than few minutes compared to Fuji songs that can last for hours.

“I want to urge my colleagues to wake up from their slumber to rebrand Fuji. We should not underrate it, because it entails intellectuality and promotes originality, culture and tradition. The late Fuji icon, Alhaji Ayinde Barrister, also confirmed that Fuji is a combination of Sakara, Juju, Highlife, among other genres. So, we should not relegate this legacy, but rather sustain its leadership among other genres,” he added.

The Fuji artiste, who has taken his music career beyond the shores of Nigeria, advised fellow musicians to believe in themselves.
