‘Educate yourself’ – BNXN tackles Fat Joe over claims Jamaica started Afrobeats

Nigerian singer, BNXN has hit hard at American rapper Fat Joe over his controversial claim that Afrobeats originated from Jamaica.

Fat Joe made several controversial claims on a recent podcast, including that Afrobeats originated from Jamaica and that he forced BNXN to change his former stage name, Buju, because of Jamaican dancehall crooner Buju Banton.

Reacting via his X page on Thursday, BNXN urged the American rapper to educate himself about African music.

BNXN also mocked Fat Joe, claiming that his hate for African music and its artists was affecting his looks.

He wrote, “The hate in your heart and your misinformation about African music and its artists is why your chromosomes are all f**ked up.”
